We’re So Excited You Want to Visit Us!

We can’t wait to welcome you and introduce you to our adoptable cats! To make sure both you and the cats have the best experience possible, we ask that you schedule a reservation before visiting. This helps us ensure a calm, comfortable environment for everyone — and gives you plenty of time to meet your potential future feline friend.

All visitors of April’s Kittens must sign our Visitor Waiver, Guidelines & Admission Policy

Guidelines for Visiting April’s Kittens

  • Use quiet voices — loud noises can frighten the cats.

  • Respect their boundaries — if a cat seems shy or scared, please don’t try to force interaction.

Our cats’ wellbeing is our top priority, so we have a few simple guidelines to ensure their comfort and safety during your visit:

  • Do not carry the cats — this helps prevent stress and keeps everyone safe.

  • Children ages 10 and older are welcome. For the safety and comfort of our cats, children under 10 years old are not permitted.

  • Let sleeping cats rest — they need their naps to stay healthy and happy.

  • Wash or sanitize your hands before touching any cats to keep everyone healthy.

If any of these guidelines are not followed, our staff may ask you to stop interacting with the cats or to leave the facility.


Thank you for helping us keep our cats safe, comfortable, and stress-free during your visit.
