Adoption Overview
At AAA Class Act – Shades of Sapphire Ragdolls, adoption is a thoughtful, relationship-driven process centered on the long-term well-being of both the kitten and the family. We believe welcoming a kitten into your home should be intentional, transparent, and guided with care—ensuring each placement is the right fit, not just a quick decision.
This page provides a high-level overview of how adoption works within our program and serves as a starting point for exploring more detailed information throughout the site.
A Thoughtful, Ethical Approach
Our program is built on integrity, education, and respect for the cats who make it possible. We do not operate on a “first pick” or impulse-based model. Instead, we focus on temperament, lifestyle compatibility, and family preparedness to ensure each kitten is placed in a home where they can truly thrive.
Adoption through our program marks the beginning of a long-term relationship — not a transaction.
Because we remain intentionally small and relationship-focused, families often begin by learning about our program and approach before kittens are available.
This philosophy guides every step of our adoption process.
What to Expect
Our adoption process is designed to be clear, supportive, and relationship-driven. From your initial inquiry through bringing your kitten home, we prioritize open communication, education, and transparency.
Families are guided through each step so expectations are understood, questions are addressed, and decisions are made thoughtfully — at a pace that feels right for each family.

Building Ongoing Relationships
Final approval within our program includes a personal conversation. This step is important to us — it allows us to build trust, answer questions openly, and ensure alignment before moving forward.
We value staying connected with our families well beyond Gotcha Day and welcome continued communication as kittens grow, settle into their homes, and thrive as part of your family.
Our role doesn’t end at placement — we’re here as a resource and support throughout your kitten’s life.

We understand that adopting a kitten comes with important questions. From timing and availability to health, policies, and preparation, our Frequently Asked Questions page addresses the most common topics families ask as they consider adoption.
