My story

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

PERSONALITY
I can be a tease and a trickster. Sometimes I show you right away how much I like people, other times I make you work for it. But I’ll still headbutt your hand and purr up a storm, even if I was being a tease just a minute ago.

Hobbies: Trying to con people for extra treats by pretending to be scared, roughhousing with my siblings, chasing after toys.
Favorite Toy: I have a toy that I absolutely love that looks like a stuffed mouse with a long, feathered tail. I get so excited when I play with it that I start growling so it knows who is boss!
Favorite Napping Spot: Pillows, a cat tree, and/or snuggled up with my kitty friends!

HOW I CAME TO THE PGSPCA
My siblings and I made friends with some nice people at a fire station and they brought us in to find furever homes!

DREAM FAMILY
I should be adopted with a sibling or into a home with other friendly kitties that like to play.

My Profile
Age: 4 months
Good with kids: don't know, yet.
Good with dogs: haven’t met dogs yet.
Good with other cats: Love other cats!
Suitable for townhouse and/or apartment: Yes
Activity level: I like playing but I'm not crazy about it!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All of our adoptions begin with a visit to one of our adoption events. The adoption coordinator and/or the pet's foster parent will review the applications received. The applicant (if any) whose responses best fit the needs of the particular pet will generally be contacted within a week to schedule a home visit. A vet check and personal reference is also required prior to visiting your home. Our non-refundable adoption fee is $250 for dogs, $85 for kittens ($150 for a pair of kittens), and $75 for an adult cat. The fee covers spay/neuter, core vaccines (distemper and rabies), deworming, microchipping, and the general care of the animals. Per our contract, if you cannot keep your adopted pet for any reason, it must be returned to our program. We will try to find it a new home.

Go meet their pets

We don't have a central shelter facility, so the best place to meet our adoptable cats and dogs is at our adoption shows! If you have previously filled out an application, please bring it with you to the show! Please e-mail with any questions. We cannot guarantee that an animal you want to meet will be at the show. Please check www.pgspca.org -> adopt -> adoption_show_attendees the day before the show and we will do our best to let you know if he/she will be there!

We hold two adoption events each month, on Saturdays from 12 noon to 2 pm.

More about this rescue

The PGSPCA is a nonprofit organization of volunteers dedicated to animal welfare. We are chartered by the State of Maryland, but we receive no state or county funds. Our activities are supported solely by contributions, dues and fundraising events.

We have three main objectives:

• To reduce the number of unwanted litters of dogs and cats through our progressive spay/neuter program – We have altered more than 20,000 animals over the past five years, many of them at no charge;

• To prevent cruelty to animals and all animal suffering through humane education, neglect and cruelty investigations, protective legal action, and an active dog and cat adoption program – We receive about 1,000 calls a month for cruelty investigations, spay and neuter assistance and adoption requests;

• To protect all animals against suffering and abuse through education on legislation affecting the protection of all animals – We regularly educate the public and provide testimony about animal welfare to county and state legislators.
