Got rats? You need a cat.

Our Working Cat Program provides a second chance for cats who are not suited for traditional indoor homes, but thrive in alternative environments like barns, warehouses, and outbuildings.

About the Program

  • These cats are not feral, but may not be suited for life as your typical indoor pets.
  • Many shelters have limited placement options for these animals, despite them being healthy and capable of a good quality of life in the right setting.
  • Our program helps this population by placing them in working environments where they can thrive.

How It Works

Cats are placed in barns or similar spaces where they can safely roam. (Think sheds, warehouses, etc.)
They remain dependent on their new caretakers for:

  • Food
  • Water
  • Shelter

This routine helps them settle in and encourages them to stay in their new environment.

Adoption Details

  • Working cats are placed through a by-donation adoption fee.
  • We provide everything you need to help your new cats acclimate successfully.

Our goal is simple: give these cats a safe place to live, and give you a natural, effective form of pest control.

These local pets are being rehomed by their current families. Rehoming programs help owners have the peace of mind that their pet is going to a home they trust by giving them the power to select a new home for their pet at the time they save their pets from going into the stressful environment of a shelter. The Animal Rescue League of Berks County, in partnership with Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet, offer this service to members of our community who are seeking to directly place their pets in new homes without needing to take their companion(s) to our shelter.
