Think adoptong a kitten is expensive?

[Phoenix PR]

Well, you're right, it is! But if you adopt one from Phoenix, we can help you. This is how:

Firstly, every kitten adopted via Phoenix is microchipped and vaccinated. (In France, it's a legal requirement to have your cat identified, not to mention a reassurance should your cat get lost, and of course, who wouldn't want their cat vaccinated against disease?).

If you visited an average vet in France, it would cost you anything from €100 to €130 to microchip and first-vaccinate your kitten and additionally, anything from €50 to €80 to second-vaccinate. At Phoenix, due to our favourable rates provided by our "Phoenix vets" it costs us much less. To cover our costs we ask, upon adoption, only:

€80 for a cat who has been microchipped first-vaccinated.

€110 for a cat who has been microchipped and first & second-vaccinated.

This means that to adopt from Phoenix, it is significantly cheaper than adopting a 'free' kitten.

What's more, you have the assurance of adopting from a reputable, experienced charity and should the adoption not work out, the right to return the kitten within 28 days.

(It's our strict policy at Phoenix that all of our kittens are sterilised where age-appropriate. Similarly, this is done for us at favourable rates, and should you adopt a sterilised cat, we ask you for a contribution towards these; this nonetheless works out much cheaper for you than via a standard veterinary practice.)

Please visit our website or Facebook pages for photos and description of the many cats and kittens we have needing homes.

Thank you.

Incidentally, you may wonder how Phoenix covers its costs? Phoenix is not state funded, and the only way we pay for our rescue animals to be rescued, vaccinated, identified, sterilised, transported and fed is through donations and fundraising. None of us at Phoenix are salaried, but we're all passionate about making animals' lives better. If you don't want to adopt an animal, but still want to help animals in need, then please visit our website and consider making a donation towards our ever-increasing costs - thank you.
