Available Cats & Kittens
Don't Shop. Adopt.
All of FoCA's adoption fees cover their spay/neutered, FIV & FeLV tested, distemper shot, deworming and de-flea treatment.
Applications can be placed online or at our shelter during normal open hours.
We recommend getting pre-approved since we don't do same day adoptions
What We Do
Friends of Companion Animals Feline Rescue & Adoption Center is an all volunteer, 501c3 nonprofit animal welfare organization that has been preventing unwanted litters from growing up on the streets or entering the already overcrowded animal shelters in Monroe County since 2011.
Shelter Public Hours: Wed- Sat Noon to 5 PM
Resale Shop Hours: Thurs- Sat Noon to 5 PM
So if you’re interested in adopting a cat or kitten… or if you’d just like to spend some time playing with some feline companions in our playroom, feel free to stop into Friends of Companion Animals and see who’s available! Our kitties will love the companionship and you’ll have a great time too and if you have any questions feel free to reach out to us.
What You Can Do
VOLUNTEER
It’s not glamorous, but if you’ve got a few hours on certain days there are always cats that need cleaning and general care…and cuddles too. If you’ve got a spare room we also need fosters too.
FUNDRAISING
Don’t have time or the ability to roll up your sleeves to help. We do take monetary donations along with bottles for returns to raise funds for odds and ends the shelter needs.
DONATE SUPPLIES
We are brand specific to certain Purina products – Kitten Chow, Naturals Original and Gentle. Yes, beggars can’t be choosers but using the same products helps avoid tummy upset.
Our NExT Event
TWO-GETHER FOREVER VALENINTES DAY Sale!
ONE DAY ONLY!! Adopt two kittens (1 year or less) for $250, which is $50 less than our normal adoption fee. And if you love chocolate we’ll also have a bake sale with tons of sweets and desserts that are coca-based!

Low Cost Spay Neuter
Humane Ohio and The Paws Clinic offer a high-quality, low-cost cat spay / neuter service. They offer discounts to people seeking low-cost vet services for felines.
Trap Neuter Return
To help control the cat population in Monroe County FoCA offers TNR advice. It’s a great way to keep neighborhood cats from overpopulation.
free barn cats
Discourage rodents and provide a companion for other farm animals. Each cat is spayed/neutered and vaccinated so they are ready to ‘work’ and be a friend.

We often have senior cats in need of quiet loving households. For senior humans seeking companionship it’s win/win for everybody.

Friends Of Companion Animals Feline Rescue & Adoption Center
Monroe MI’s only all-cat rescue and adoption center is an all-volunteer organization that relies solely on community donations.
Calling all of our amazing supporters… we would like to Introduce you to Ellie. This sweet girl showed up with some significant facial and tail injuries. And to top it off she was found to be pregnant. Although we can only speculate on how these injuries occurred, they needed to be addressed. Her lower lip was torn from the jaw and she had 2 broken teeth in addition to a broken tail. She underwent surgery yesterday to be spayed, have broken teeth extracted, and have her tail amputated. I would like to mention that She was Early on in her pregnancy and it was decided for the safety of her health and to allow her to focus on healing to terminate the pregnancy. Despite all that she has been through, she is as sweet as can be. We are asking for help to cover her vet bills. We have had several medical cases and cats in need of dentals, extractions and hospitalizations. Her estimate for care is 565-910$. We also just had a visit at Medvet that required our sweet Isabel to stay on iv fluids, costing over 900$ and she is currently hospitalized on ivs at heritage animal hospital. She has been running extremely high fevers that have required IV fluids, IV antibiotics along with anti-inflammatories to keep her fever under control. We sent out bloodwork to see if we could get to the root of the cause but are still waiting for results. If you were able to donate any amount or even call in a donation directly to Heritage, it would be greatly appreciated.. We have had thousands of dollars worth of vet care over the last several months and they don’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.
