Adoption is not free - you would need to make a donation towards the animal's vet bill as he/she will have been neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed and health checked. It's also nice to make an extra donation towards all the food and litter that the rescue people have paid for.

95% of rescue cats here are just regular DSH (the normal short-haired breed you see everywhere). There's no difference between "street" cats and "home" cats. One just lives outside! If you were given 2 kittens you would not be able to tell which one was originally born on the street and which one was born in a home.

Anyone wanting a pet would have to prove to the rescue people that they were serious about it, had all the accessories, equipment and food ready, and they would have to take the pet with them when they left Qatar.
