Story
Meet this handsome boy who's looking for a forever home! 🐈❤️ He was living as a stray in my neighborhood in Bowie, MD, and I've been feeding him for a while. I recently had him go through the TNR program and has been neutered, vaccinated for rabies and distemper, dewormed, and had his nails trimmed. I've been fostering him while he recovers from surgery, but I would really love to see him go to a loving home instead of being returned to life on the streets. He is very sweet and friendly. Unfortunately, I already have two cats and will be moving soon, so I'm not able to keep him. If you've been thinking about adopting a cat, this sweet boy deserves a chance at an indoor life. Please message me if you're interested or share this post to help him find his forever family. ❤️

Story
Meet Webster Collin & Mr. Willow 🤍🐾 These sweet boys are looking for a calm, loving home together. Adopted in summer 2020, they’ve been gentle, low-maintenance companions ever since. They love peaceful environments and simply being near their people. While I work from home, they quietly nap nearby, follow me downstairs for water or lunch breaks, then return to relax beside me again. They are affectionate without being demanding and would do best in a quieter home without a lot of noise or activity. An older individual, retiree, quiet couple, or someone who works from home would be perfect for them. Most importantly, they are bonded and need to stay together because they truly keep each other company. Rehoming them is a very difficult decision due to allergies in our home and a family member with cat allergies moving in. If you or someone you know is looking for two calm, loving companions, please message me. 🖤

Story
HOW I CAME TO PGSPCA My mom brought me and my brothers to a place that had all sorts of plants and cozy spots, but also a lot of people around. The people at the garden center made sure that we had plenty to eat and fresh water to drink until another nice lady took us all inside while we look for our furever homes! DREAM HOME I need to be in a home with other kitty friends. I don't necessarily need to be adopted with one of my brothers, but I'll thrive best with other feline companionship. My Profile Age: 10 months (as of February 2024) Good with kids: good with kids over 10 years old. Good with dogs: haven’t met dogs yet. Good with other cats: Yes Suitable for townhouse and/or apartment: Yes Meet Me If you are interested in Nash, consider letting us know by filling out a (no-obligation) adoption application at pgspca.org.

Story
Bantha was lovable and friendly from the moment he arrived, so much so that his first nickname was Bestie, long before the Star Wars names stuck. He arrived the sickest of his litter, likely the runt, but he's made a full recovery and now has energy to spare. In fact, playtime is his favorite part of the day. Hobbies: tussling and jumping around with his siblings Favorite Toy: the TurboChaser (especially the light-up ball), anything with a bell, the Cat Catcher, and springs Favorite Napping Spot: a shoulder perch with one of his foster family He imprinted fully on his foster family, and there's nothing he loves more than cuddles, pets, and being the center of attention. He has a low-maintenance coat, though he does enjoy a good brushing. He's mid-training on weekly nail trims, so keeping that up would be a plus. Bath time is still a work in progress — he tends to get wiggly. How I Came to PGSPCA In a galaxy not so far away (okay, just next door), a small colony of cats had been living wild for years, multiplying in the shadows with no one looking out for them. Kittens would come and go, and no one really knew what became of them once they wandered off. Then a family of rebels intervened. Determined to give these younglings a real shot at life, they smuggled the newest litter out of the colony and into a secret base (also known as the spare bathroom). It wasn't glamorous, but it was safe, and that was enough to change everything. The kittens arrived scrappy and small, fighting off infections that clouded their eyes. But with steady care and the Force of a good vet team behind them, they healed. Now, fully recovered, vaccinated, and ready for their next mission, they're searching the galaxy for the one thing every good story needs: a FURever home. Dream Home Bantha is looking for an indoor-only home ready to match his energy. He'd thrive with an active household that can keep up with his playtime, but he's just as happy winding down for cuddles once the zoomies pass. He's bonded closely with his siblings and would do best going home with a playmate — ideally Wampa or Mudhorn, who are calmer but still very playful with their siblings and toys. Either would offer a good balance of energy for his forever home. My Profile Age: 16 weeks Good with kids: Yes Good with dogs: unsure Good with other cats: Yes Suitable for townhouse and/or apartment: Yes Activity level: Energetic and playful Meet Me If you are interested in Bantha, consider letting us know by filling out a (no-obligation) adoption application.

Story
Sarlac is friendly through and through, always ready to climb into a lap for pets and snuggles between rounds of chasing toys with her siblings (and, of course, her naps). She's a purring machine, rumbling away during mealtime and again the moment she's getting love from her humans. She's got energy to burn and plays until she tuckers herself out completely, often falling asleep wherever she lands mid-play. Favorite Toy: TurboChaser and stalking feathers on a string like she's hunting real birds Favorite Napping Spot: Snuggling with her littermates Sarlac is a typical female cat who looks out for her pride, and she's every bit the diva, always making sure she's show ready. Her eyes are what really seal the deal, though: one look up at you and shell have you handing over all the cuddles she can hold. She's good with kids, adults, other pets, and especially her littermates, who she loves cuddling and roughhousing with.

Now, fully recovered, vaccinated, and ready for their next mission, they're searching the galaxy for the one thing every good story needs: a furever home. Dream Home Like her siblings, Sarlac needs to be adopted alongside a mate. Shed pair especially well with a calmer, more laid-back companion — Mudhorn, Purrgil, or Wampa — to balance out her playful energy. She's excellent in the litter box, even covering up after her littermates. She loves being brushed and would welcome it as part of a regular routine, and due to her long hair coat, she does need the occasional cleanup assist to stay tidy back there. She'd do best in a home ready to keep up with her playful side and give her plenty of active engagement.
