My story

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

An approved adoption application is required to meet me in my foster home -- fill out an application today! Our mailing address is Reston, VA and our cats fostered in NoVA and DC homes.  Washington, D.C.- Suburban Virginia/Maryland Area inquiries only, please!


Greetings from Tennessee - He's the only ten I see! 

This sweet black & white boy is a total ham - he loves being brushed, cuddled, and scratched on the chin (especially while you marvel at his dual-toned goatee). He settled into his foster home immediately, demanding attention and playtime like he'd lived there for years.

 

Some of his favorite things include being brushed, snuggling with you in bed at night, and chatting with you while he follows you around the house.  When it comes to play, Tennessee particularly enjoys catnip toys, bunny-kicking his stuffies, and darting after a laser pointer. When he's all tuckered out, he's contentedly park himself next to you on the couch or in your lap, ready for pets.

 

Tennessee gets along with other cats, but definitely doesn't need them around and would do fine as a solo pet. He seems more interested in human attention (and lots of it!) and doesn't necessarily engage much with the other cats in his foster home. He's gentle, calm, and would likely do well in households of all ages and sizes.

 

Sound on to hear loud purrs in his profile video! :)

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We take in new cats weekly and often have kittens already in foster homes with their moms who will be ready for adoption in a few weeks. Many of our intakes are adopted from their foster homes before they make it to the website based on the applications we have processed for approved adopters. Please get your applications in now to be first in line!
