My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Black Jack: a handsome little guy preparing for the next season of the Great British Bake Off. He’s an enthusiastic kneader who clocks a daily biscuit shift after playtime. Feather wands and small toys get him moving, and life's daily curiosities have him popping up on his hind legs like a meerkat. As a bonus, he's even considerate and prefers his cardboard scratchers over your furniture.
Black Jack was returned to 4Paws when allergies and a busy home made it hard for him to thrive, but with a pet allergist's plan he's doing great. Like any good baker, Black Jack can follow a recipe: his allergies are well controlled with a twice-daily pill that he takes without fuss, and pill pockets have also worked smoothly when needed.
Black Jack will flourish as the only cat in a calm home where he can be the star of the kitchen. Give him room to roam, toys to chase, and a comfortable spot beside you, and he’ll bring you a consistent mix of playtime, cuddles, and, of course, freshly made biscuits. Black Jack could also share a home with a laid back cat who does not mind him taking charge.
His estimated date of birth is January 2018. He is neutered, current on vaccines, microchipped, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

At the adoption fairs, if you meet a kitten or cat that you want to adopt, you will be asked to complete an application and contract and leave a check for the adoption fee ($120 for an adult or $145 for un-neutered kitten of which $50 is a deposit that is refunded after you provide 4Paws proof of sterilization). We ask that you pay the adoption fee up front at the fairs in order to “put a hold” on the cat until your application is processed. If your application is not approved, your check is returned to you.
Neither cats nor kittens are sent to their new homes on the day of the fair. It usually takes 4-5 days to process the application before the cat can go to his or her adoptive home. Pre-approval is an option, though. To accelerate the adoption process, you can fax a completed application and contract to us at 703-560-9795 a few days before the fair. Adoption Applications are available on this website.

Adoption fairs are held once or twice a month at various PETCO stores in Northern Virginia. The adoption fairs are usually held on Saturday’s from 1:00 to 5:00. Between 30 and 60 cats and kittens are shown for adoption at each fair—with the larger fairs generally occurring April through October.
While they are waiting to find permanent loving homes, our cats temporarily live in foster homes. The foster families bring the cats and kittens to the adoption fairs to be seen by potential adopters. Applicants have the opportunity to handle the cats and in some cases, meet the foster parents who can provide additional insight into a cat’s habits and personality.
