I am already neutered, a special needs pet, and up to date with shots.
I came to AWLMC from the Montgomery County Animal Shelter. I was found as a stray. I am a handsome gray tabby with white feet. I am a gentle, loveable cat. I have a super loving personality and just want to find my forever home. I am a little timid in new surroundings, but once I am comfortable I become curious and want to explore. I give kisses and head butts. I like to be held or sit near you and be petted. I talk too! I love to play, especially with toy mice and balls. I enjoy looking out the window and watching the critters outside. I am a little too curious around doors, so my new family will have to be careful. I am considered a special needs cat. I have asthma, that is most likely triggered by an allergy. I am on medication to control it. Please don't let this stop you from adopting me. I am super cat that really needs a special loving home. I was born in 2010.

Shelter Info...
As many of you may already know, we have a mission: To enhance the lives of Montgomery County Maryland residents and animals through programs directed at education, adoption, animal shelter, and low cost spay/neuter. The AWLMC is committed to ending the euthanasia of adoptable animals in Montgomery County Maryland. With this in mind, we are partnering with the county shelter to help save the most at-risk animals. Currently, we are only working with cats. We hope to be able to add a dog program soon.
In order to save as many cats as possible, we have opened a no-kill shelter in Gaithersburg. We need your help in the form of direct financial donations and by volunteering your time. Our organization is strong and full of highly dedicated volunteers of all ages, backgrounds, professions and abilities. We are working together to save the lives of cats and kittens, to find them loving, forever homes and to have them spay/neutered. All of our cats and kittens are spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
We are the Animal Welfare League of Montgomery County.
