“Ooh, Foxy lady!..” Who, me? Yes, I’m Foxy, and I’m a 13 year old gal with a voluminous heart and voluptuous figure. It’s true, I am a bigger lady who could use some help shedding a few extra L.B.’s, but all I need is a patient person to walk by my side and remind me that I’m the prettiest of Foxy ladies. Loud noises and busy environments can be pretty scary for my older, more refined self, so I’m a kitty who would do best in a quieter household. I thrive in a calm, quiet space close by my human to give me pets and, most importantly, give me a gooood brushin’! I looove being brushed, I could let you do it for hours (..seriously). I think I would be the perfect feline friend for anyone looking for a laid-back, gentle soul to slow down and savor the simple things, like my cute pink toe beans and my soft purr. Sound like you? Come meet me soon!
Interested in adopting me? I am in a foster home so things need to be done a little differently. We recommend submitting a general online adoption application and then calling the shelter to let them know you are interested in meeting me!. Please note: all applications are considered general until the animal has been met. If you have any questions, please contact animalcenter@bmorehumane.org or 410-833-8848 Ext/Opt 2.

More about this shelter
The Humane Society of Baltimore County, now known as the Baltimore Humane Society (BHS), was founded in 1927 by a pioneering and compassionate socialite named Elsie Seeger Barton (1886-1983).
In 1902, at age 16, Miss Seeger was stricken with rheumatic fever and was confined to her bed. During that time, her constant companions were the family’s beloved pets. It was at that time that Ms. Seeger resolved to devote her life to the care and humane treatment of companion and service animals. When she became well, she established a refuge for abused and homeless animals on her family’s estate, known as “Thistle Top” on Milford Road in Pikesville, MD, overlooking Gwynn’s Falls Dam. In 1908 she married Bolling Walker Barton, Jr., President of Barton, Duet & Koch Paper Company.
