My family had adopted our cats here for many years. I adopted a kitten a couple of days ago, and the adoption counselor couldn't have been nicer. For $100, I got a kitten who had been spayed, thoroughly vetted, and had all her shots. She had obviously been well-socialized by the person who fostered her litter.

First visit here was last Sunday. They had an abundance of cats in the back room, otherwise known as the adoption floor. We had a great time visiting with all the cats and kittens, and had a hard time choosing who we wanted to take home. The volunteers were all knowledgeable and we were able to complete an application and pay $50 down on a 3 month old kitten named Heston. I went back the next day with the balance adoption fee and a carrier. The average $100 fee covers vaccinations, testing, rabies tag, and microchip. They give you a folder of information, and a small bag of catfood.
We had a wonderful experience and will definitely come here again.Helpful 5Thanks 1Love this 7Oh no 1 - Lonnie M.Washington, DC06Sep 3, 2023
This place refused to take in the loving stray young male cat I found, sent a short reply after I profusely pleaded for help and sent pictures of the all black kitty I found. I even asked for resources if they couldn't help and all they said was "we are unable to accept any more cats, go to adopt a pet." Just horrible. Shame on you Cozy Cat Cottage Adoption Center. Kitty was discriminated against and denied a chance at life by them because he was a stray. Be honest and post on your website that you will refuse all stray cats instead of wasting Good Samaritans time and letting them down. No donations will be made from me!

After submitting an application, I came back the next day with the cash deposit (they waited until I submitted the application to tell me cards were not accepted. Upon coming back, they had to search for my application for 10 minutes only to then deny me due to having recently moved roughly four months ago. They stated that since I moved it was evidence of "instability in the home." Apparently people aren't allowed to move to different locations, a beautiful kitten was denied a great home over some arbitrary director's decision who never spoke to me at all during the entire process.

We are very upset with the treatment from Cozy Cat Cottage! Here is what happened
We have spoken with Cozy Cat Cottage previously about this situation. We dropped off a little 6 week old baby boy (kitten) September 3, 3 months ago. They named him Phelan (Baby Blue is what we called him). We have been calling and volunteering checking to see when he will be neutered. We have asked you to let us adopt him back from you guys once he was neutered. You told us you can't hold a kitten for us. Fine, I understand that. However, we called and volunteered and checked on Phelan for 3 months. Once the staff tells me he doesn't weight enough to be neutered. One week I was told he was adopted and then they changed it and said "we use to have 2 named Phelan and 1 was adopted and the 2nd doesn't weigh enough yet. We were told to check back in a week. I've also been told by the staff there that they have no idea. First off how can you not know all you have to do is look him up or even look us up. Do you not want to adopt him back to us? We will pay your $100. At the time when we found him he was still so young he required us feeding him with a bottle every 3 hours and we just couldn't do it and didn't know how to care for a kitten that young. It has nothing to do with us having room in our house or hearts for him because he had already taken our hearts. We have loved that little guy and still do which is why we were trying to get him back. I didn't know what the problem was and continued asking them to please tell me if if they still had him and when he will be neutered? How much does he weigh? If it's true that he doesn't weigh enough he's 4 months old how can he not weigh enough to be neutered? We found him and med vet has estimated his age to be 6 weeks. They had had him for 3 months that makes him at least 4 months. He weighed 8oz according to Med Vet when we had him 3 months ago. Is he not eating ok, is his health ok?
After all this effort they finally responde...

I found Phelan. He was adopted to a nice lady in November.
He had his neuter surgery on 11/17/22 and went home on the 19th.
For 3 months we kept asking about Phelan checking on him trying to find out when he'd get neutered so we could adopt him. They just kept telling us he didn't weigh enough or they didn't know anything. They blatantly lied to us.
Don't take you cats or kittens to this place. Cat welfare is a much better place.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 4 - Joe C.Mount Vernon, OH264128691Aug 14, 2019

I reached out to cozy cat for help with fixing my stray that I found & her 6 kittens.they didnot tell me at the time that I could not have any of them back.i didnot sign a release for them to keep them. I am broken hearted now bcuz the owner informed me they were adopted out.than told me not to message them again.she treated me as tho me asking about my own kitties was a burden to her.basically I was dismissed.i rescued the mama from the street & took her in .I stayed with het when she gave birth to 6 beautiful kittens.i raised them until it was time to be fixed.i couldn't afford 7 cats so she took that & said that is a big factor to them when deciding OP if i am allowed to have them back.they stole my kitties from me.instead of helping me with the kitties they just took them & kept me from ever seeing them again. I know the kitties were traumatized as well bcuz they were used to being with me.they slept with me every nite.i couldn't afford to fix 7rite at the moment but I definitely afford 2 or 3 of them.i even offered to pay to adopt some back & the owner said they are gone.! I don't understand why they had to adopt out all of mine.its not like they don't have a lot of kitties without a home.instead they took mine from their home where they were loved so much and adopted them out.and I did not give them permission. i believe in their cause.i think it's a wonderful thing to save all these stray cats & find them good ,safe loving homes.thats what I do when I can.i just don't understand why they would need to steal mine & dismiss me as if I had nothing to do with them being there in the first place.i am a cat lover too obviously.i especially loved them .they had become my family.i believe that bcuz i am a senior citizen on a fixed income. And not living in a ritzy neighborhood it put me in their category of not worthy to have a pet.not even worthy of a response .
I just hope they are all in good homes & not sitting there in a cage.i regret contacting them. So if you are ever in a similar situation and you need help taking care of stray kitties .beware .they will keep them all & you will never see them againHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Michele V.Powell, OH501934Aug 25, 2018
The best cat adoption facility out there. Cozy cat is a no kill shelter & has done so much for cats in need. We adopted our baby from there & are currently fostering 2 (out of 26!!!) kittens they just took on. Please adopt, don't shop & consider volunteering or making a donation to Cozy Cat.
