Story
Meet Lemon 🍋, a handsome orange teen tabby! Although Lemons are usually sour, this one is sweet! 🍬 Found after wandering away from home, Lemon was brought in by a caring soul, who was worried about his safety. Less than 10 minutes after arriving, he had already squeezed his way into our hearts 💕. With his loving personality and warm cuddles he'd make a great feline friend to spend every moment with! Don't wait or be late and come secure your new forever friend, down at The Humane Society Of Charles County! 🎊

Story
Lovely all Black kitty, fixed, pleasant and affectionate personality, doesn’t nip, bite, or scratch, is skittish (all her life), loves quiet, doest meow a lot (whispers when you talk to her). BeeGee (nickname) is respectful of furniture, has never had a urine or poop accident, is clean and always uses her litter box (please scoop out litter daily!), she always uses the scratching posts and pads. Likes puzzles (with treats in them), loves snuggles. Sleeps by herself (doesn’t need to be in your bed!). 6 yrs old. I made the tough decision to rehome BeeGee because I am not in a place emotionally to meet anyones emotional needs (and this feeling isn’t going away anytime soon); I am the problem, haha. I have no issues caring for her otherwise. She needs love and affection and I want her to have that and to continue to be happy with a loving and disciplined pet owner, bc that’s the environment she was raised in. Thanks for your consideration! We can chat via phone about routines, etc.

Story
Ash is a sweet, affectionate, and playful cat that we rescued in October 2025. She loves attention and will happily lay up beside you for cuddles and naps. she enjoys playtime and being part of whatever her people are doing. She is spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, Ash and our first cat have not been able to coexist peacefully. Our first cat struggles with anxiety and reacted defensively from the start, which led to escalating conflicts between them. Because of this dynamic, we believe Ash would do best as the only pet in the home or with calm animals. Ash has never shown aggression toward people. My partner and I want the best for both of ours cats which is why we are resorting to Barcs: Adopt a pet.

Story
I got my cat Milo as a tiny one-week-old kitten, a special birthday gift who quickly became part of my family. I raised him to be a loving, playful, and happy cat who truly enjoys being around people. His days are simple and sweet. He loves eating, playing, and taking cozy naps. One of his favorite things is relaxing in the sunshine, soaking up the warmth. Milo is friendly with other cats and especially enjoys playing with his brother. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, and potty trained, making him easy to care for in a new home. Recently, I welcomed a new baby into my family, and sadly I’m no longer able to give Milo the time and attention he deserves. He is a wonderful cat who needs a caring, loving home where he can continue to be safe, happy, and loved.
