Story
Meet the enchanting Tia, a feline heroine who rescued her siblings abandoned in the woods as kittens. Though they began as feral cats, Tia's gradual transformation has made her increasingly sociable, adapting seamlessly to indoor living. Initially timid, she has overcome her shyness, now embracing human contact, relishing petting, love, and attention, particularly during mealtime. Tia's gentle nature extends to her compatibility with both cats and dogs. While she may initially shy away from unfamiliar canines, a result of a past encounter with a husky, she generally tolerates them well after gaining trust. Though she prefers solitude and rest over constant companionship, Tia is reliably present when it's time to eat. Spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and equipped with a microchip, Tia is poised to join a family that welcomes her as a cherished member without expecting her to be a lap cat. She takes delight in her cat tower and high shelves, demonstrating the typical feline love for elevated spaces. Tia eagerly awaits the opportunity to find her forever home, offering her a unique blend of independence and affection.

Story
Meet the lovely Lulu, a domestic short-haired grey and white female born in January 2017. Lulu is exceptionally friendly and a true people cat. She thrives on human interaction, especially when addressed by her name. While she prefers consistency in feeding time and food choices, she can adapt to changes over time. This charming feline enjoys engaging in conversation and will greet you with enthusiasm. Lulu expresses herself when it's mealtime or if she desires to go outside. She adores being brushed and revels in cuddles, showcasing her affectionate nature. Not one to engage in conflicts, Lulu gets along well with other cats. She has been spayed, is up to date on all vaccines, and is ready for her next chapter. Lulu, along with her brother Popeye, was surrendered by their owner due to relocation to another country. Despite the circumstances, their previous owner wanted them to find a loving home that appreciates them just as she did. If you are interested in making Lulu a part of your family, please visit our website at https://serendipityanimalrescue.org for an application.

Story
Stellaluna is 3 year old (DOB 8/20) shorthaired black female. She needs time to get used to new people, but once she trusts you, she will be your best buddy. Doesn't like to be held much but loves to be pet and will occasionally sleep with you or lay in your lap. She can be a little skittish with loud noises or fast movements, so we think she would do best in older children/no children homes, or even by herself. She does fine with dogs, loves to play with and chase her siblings, especially Chase. All cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, FeLV/FIV tested, dewormed, microchipped, and current on revolution. No declawing. Indoor homes only. If pet is still listed, he/she is available so please do not ask if available. If you wish to be considered for adoption, please submit an application at www.rescueangelssomd.com.

Story
Hocus and Pocus are a bonded brother and sister pair. The female torti is short haired and so super sweet and cuddly, doesn't mind being held and played with, and purrs constantly. She is a sweetie. The male medium/long haired black kitten is shy but is also sweet and is learning that being picked up and cuddled is ok and means it's out of love. He's warming up more daily. Both were rescued from outdoor life together. Their mother was trapped and spayed and unfortunately one of their siblings was found deceased. We are glad these two are safe and have a chance at an indoor forever home to be loved! They are about 4 months old (born in June 2024) and are still small and very kitten-y. They seem to like other cats. Foster mom doesn't have dogs or kids so not sure how they are with dogs and kids. They would be great in a multi-cat home and around adults only probably. They are great with only going in the litter box, and are healthy. They are left ear tipped but it was decided they should come into the foster program rather than released back outdoors.
