My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Aptly named for her luxurious tortie coat, Miss Kitty Fluffington is a sweetly shy cat looking for a quiet home with a patient, understanding adopter. She came to the Frederick shelter as an unsocialized stray with two kittens. We brought her into our foster program to give her time to raise her kittens, and she was a wonderful mom, giving her little ones lots of love and trusting her foster caretakers enough to allow them to socialize her kittens. The kittens found a wonderful home together, and now it's Miss Kitty's turn. She's made a lot of progress in her own socialization. She greets her foster mom with happy, excited meows, enjoys being petted, and loves their daily play sessions. But Miss Kitty is still shy with unfamiliar people so needs an adopter who can provide her with a safe, quiet environment and patiently earn her trust. Miss Kitty is spayed, current on vaccinations, felv/fiv negative and microchipped.

Go meet their pets

We list all of our kitties here on Adoptapet as well as on Petfinder. Many of our kitties go to adoption events at a Frederick PetSmart store. Please be aware that kitties typically do not show their true personality at an adoption event. Check our facebook events page for upcoming adoption events: https://www.facebook.com/pg/FFOCASonpets/events/

More about this rescue

Our mission is to support and facilitate the lifesaving work of our local county shelter (Frederick County Animal Control) by providing the resources to:

- treat and rehabilitate animals with medical and behavioral needs who might otherwise have to be humanely euthanized;
- enrich the shelter environment and reduce the amount of time any animal stays in the shelter, minimizing the chance for new behavior or health problems to develop;
- recruit volunteers and foster care providers who are able to work with special needs animals; and
- help families keep the pets they have and avoid surrendering pets to the shelter.

We serve as a safety net for the homeless pets of Frederick County. To help achieve our mission, we have a rescue program (Cats with Character) as well as a shelter intake prevention program (Project Hope). We work closely with the Frederick shelter's barn cat program, Barn Cat Buddies. Through Project Hope, we are sometimes asked to help rehome animals who are still living with their owners.

On our Adoptapet page, you will find our available cats and kittens, kitties who came through Barn Cat Buddies but who would do well in an indoor home, and animals coming through Project Hope who are looking for a new home.
