ForestWind Siberian Cats

Thank you for asking us how to adopt a ForestWind kitten when you are allergic to cats

We conduct a thorough review with you to assess the likelihood of your success in an kitten adoption. Here are the steps you will take:

1. Complete and submit an adoption application.

2. Request a fur sample.

3. Assess reactivity.

4. Select your Safe Home.

5. Research and begin to implement allergy house cleaning strategies in your home.

6. Reserve your kitten.

7. Decide whether to schedule an in-person challenge. 

It is up to you whether you then elect to schedule a visit to our home tocheck your reactions "up close and personal" with a real live Siberian cat (or two).  We are happy to make these arrangements for folks who have kitten reservations with us. Your reservation fee is refunded in full if there is clear evidence of an allergic reaction while you are at our home. Unfortunately, we cannot observe reactions after you leave, and regretfully cannot return any deposits at that point. Therefore, please ensure that you plan for enough time to allow your reaction to occur.This means thirty minutes of interaction with our cats + spending several hours, if necessary, in the local area before returning to our home to hold another cat and evaluate reactivity.You need to exhibit visible signs of allergic reaction in order to have your reservation refunded. While we are very supportive of allergy adoptions, we can not serve as a "testing station" for adoptions from other breeders.

8. Prepare to bring your kitten home.

9. Mail signed and notarized Contract.
