  • FIV+

  • Special dietary needs
  • Cerebellar hypoplasia
  • Neurological disabilities

Our Lifetime Commitment

At Montana’s Little Cat Rescue, every adoption is a lifelong commitment. If, at any point during the cat’s life, you are no longer able to care for them, the cat must be returned to Montana’s Little Cat Rescue. We will always accept our cats back and ensure they are placed in another safe, loving home. We never want one of our cats to enter a shelter or be rehomed without our knowledge.
