Hi, I’m Beanie! I’m a sassy, shy, and sweet girl with black fur the prettiest white boots you’ll ever see! I’m looking for my forever home with my brother, Bugs, since I love to play with him and other cats. Me and Bugs were found in the woods when we were babies but I’ve come a long way. I’m still a little timid but I like to be scratched on my head! Being around Bugs and watching him get pet and played with has already brought me out of my shell, but I want to go home to someone who is patient with me. I occasionally work at my brother’s biscuit bakery and prefer to be compensated with lots and lots of treats (dried minnows and churu please!).
Hi, I’m Bugs! I’m a super sweet and cuddly boy with black fur and a tiny patch of white on my chest! I’m looking for my forever home with my sister, since I love to play and snuggle. Me and my sister, Beanie, were found in the woods and I’ve come a very long way. I love to lay in the sun on my cat tree or directly on the windowsill to see birds fly! I recently opened a biscuit bakery and have been working very hard everyday - I prefer to be compensated with ear scratches and lots and lots of treats. I love talking to my foster mom and telling her when to feed and play with me.

Our adoption process is simple. When you come to the adoption center, you will fill out an application and a volunteer will interview you and ask about your cat knowledge and experience as well as your other pets. If your application is approved, they will help match you to the cat is perfect for your home and lifestyle. Some adult cats may be adopted singly, but we prefer to adopt out kittens in pairs unless you have a playful cat or dog already in residence to keep the kitten company.
King Street Cats asks for a $125 non-refundable adoption fee to adopt a cat or kitten, or $225 to adopt two. The fee includes:
- A cat that has been to a vet and tested for FELV/FIV. They are not put up for adoption unless the tests are negative (although sometimes we do have an FIV-positive cat that is healthy and can be adopted).
- An adult cat that is up-to-date on vaccinations before being made available for adoption. (Kittens will have had vaccinations appropriate for their age)
- Cats and kittens are spayed or neutered before they are placed for adoption. Kittens are spayed/neutered between 12-14 weeks and are then available for adoption.
- Post-adoption support: our volunteers are very knowledgeable about cat care. We encourage adopters to call us with any questions.

More about this rescue
We are proud to be the only cat-exclusive orphanage in Alexandria, Va. We have been in operation since 2003, and were previously known as The Albert Foundation for many years before becoming King Street Cats. Because we are a free-roaming and no-kill cat orphanage, we have the "cat-friendliest cats" in town! Our primary purpose is to educate and assist the community in regard to cat welfare, and to provide loving homes for the cats and kittens in our care. We accomplish this through outreach to the local community by providing information on proper cat care, behavioral problems and medical issues involving cats. We also assist local residents in locating and retrieving lost cats and assist individuals through the cat adoption process. We provide abandoned and rescued cats and kittens with a safe and secure temporary home until a permanent, loving home can be found.
We promote spaying and neutering and all our cats and kittens are sterilized and fully up-to-date on all medical care prior to adoption. We also provide post-adoption support for adopters and anyone else that needs cat care advice. Because we only work in the area of cat welfare .... we know cats! Please stop by and visit with our friendly cats.
