Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:

We serve Rappahannock Country, Virginia, and frequently place cats in other parts of Northern Virginia and Central Virginia, and the Washington, DC metropolitan area.

About Our Rescue Group:

We are a very small rescue group in a very small rural county in central Virginia (pop. 7,000). Our county lacks the resources to operate a cat shelter and we are trying to develop a sustainable cat rescue. We try to help residents to find homes for the many homeless cats in our community.

Because the county is so small, most of our placements are out of the county.

All RappCats are healthy, neutered, FELV-negative, and are up to date on all shots.

Our Adoption Process:

We conduct an initial phone interview/counseling to try to assure a good match. During the interview, the counselor fills out an application. We can arrange for you to meet the cat after that, if you wish.

We check vet references and will bring the cat to your home, as another way we try to be sure the cat will be a good fit for your family.

Our standard adoption fee is $85, and can be waived.

Our Adopted Pets:

We have helped lots of pets connect with loving and caring owners. Check out our adopted pets list!

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a cat or kitten versus getting cats for sale or kittens for sale from a cat breeder? When someone is breeding kittens, they are creating new cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of cat or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a cat for sale from a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a cat or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
