My story

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

Hi, I’m Hope – Your Chatty, Cuddle-Loving Best Friend! Are you looking for a companion who will adore you unconditionally, keep you company all day, and chat with you about everything? Well, look no further—I’m Hope, and I’d love to be your new best friend! Unlike most cats, I don’t play hard to get. I’m a lap cat through and through. I’ll sit next to you (or on you!) for hours, happily purring just because I’m near you. I don’t even need pets to be content—your presence is enough to make me happy. What Makes Me Special? • I’m a social butterfly. If you have guests, I’ll introduce myself right away—I don’t believe in being shy! • I love to talk. Every morning, I like to have a ten-minute conversation with my person. I’ll meow and tell you all about my dreams, my plans for the day, and remind you that I’m the most important thing in your life. I also greet you at the door every evening with an enthusiastic chat. • I love compliments. Some cats love treats, but I love praise. If you tell me “good girl,” I’ll keep doing whatever made you happy—over and over again! Fun Facts About Me! • I won’t eat unless you stand next to me. Eating is a social event, and I prefer company while I dine! • I drool when I’m happy. Scratch my head just right, and you might notice a little drool—it’s just my way of saying “I love you!” • I’m obsessed with Cat TV. Put on a YouTube video of birds or fish, and I’ll sit mesmerized, watching my “shows.” It’s my version of binge-watching! Who I’m Looking For I need someone who has a lot of love and attention to give. I don’t do well being alone for long periods, so I’d be happiest with a retired or work-from-home human who wants a constant companion. I also prefer to be the only pet—I like being the star of the show! A quiet home without young kids would be ideal, so I can get all the attention I deserve. Unfortunately, my current person has developed a serious allergy, so they’re helping me find my perfect new home. If you’re looking for a cat who will love you with her whole heart, keep you company all day, and make sure you’re never lonely, I’m your girl! If you think we’re a match, let’s meet!

Want a purr machine to ride on your shoulder?! Hope's your girl! She's a gentle, friendly girl who turned 2 April, 2024. She enjoys affection and is happy to be held. She's healthy,with silky fur. We want to make adopting easy for you! Here’s our application:   https://form.jotform.com/232837730565159  Once you complete it, we’re on it! We’ll call your vet (or personal reference) the next business day. Then we like to do a brief video chat (FaceTime if you have it) so you can show us your new pet’s home - where they’ll sleep, eat, and play. During our chat, we can also give you tips or answer questions about how to successfully integrate your new family member into your household, especially if you have other pets. Our adoption fee is $150 and covers our costs of spay/neuter, vaccinations, vet exam, and supplies. (Once old enough, all our cats are current on their shots and have been spayed/neutered.) We’re a strictly no-kill shelter just for cats. We’re cage-free, donation-based, and volunteer-powered. We’re small but special and we’re glad you found us! For more info don’t hesitate to call or text us at 540-987-6050 or email us at adopt@rappcats.org.

More about this shelter

We operate the only state-approved cat shelter in Rappahannock County, relying entirely on private funds. Our shelter is no-kill. We euthanize out of human compassion only those cats that are suffering and cannot be saved.

Our shelter is also cage-free. The cats live, eat and sleep in large open spaces with each other. They are beloved to our dedicated volunteers.

Our dedicated volunteers also help the residents of our rural county to spay/neuter cats; rescue, and provide shelter and medical care for stray, abandoned and injured cats; and find loving homes for homeless cats.

All RappCats cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and healthy (unless otherwise noted).
