Story
Dottie and her sister Eloise are as friendly, playful and as curious as they can be! Born in early March 2024, these precious kittens are incredibly cuddly and affectionate with everyone they meet. Both Dottie and Eloise love being held and snuggled - they will purr their little hearts out with appreciation for your attention!  We would ideally like to see these adorable sisters adopted as a pair - they are truly an incredible duo! However, applicants looking for a single kitten will also be considered if they’re a great match and their homes already have resident kitties for them to play and bond with.  Dottie and Eloise have tested negative for FIV/FeLV. They are current on all age appropriate vaccines & preventative treatments. The kittens are microchipped and will be spayed in the coming week.   Our single kitten adoption fee is $200 (or $175 each when adopting a pair). Please complete an adoption application as the first step in our adoption process. You can access the Cat Adoption Application by visiting this kitten’s bio on our website: www.ahomeoftheirownrescue.org Important Note: Due to the fragile nature of small kittens, the Cat Adoption Team at ‘A Home of Their Own Rescue’ prioritizes pair adoption applications as well as those without children under 8 years old in the home.  If you have additional questions about Dottie, please contact Natalie by emailing: catadoptions@ahomeoftheirown.org  **We do our very best to respond to general inquiries as well as submitted applications as quickly as possible. However, as an all volunteer organization, it can take several days for you to receive a response. We genuinely appreciate your patience.** ##2033430##

Story
Hi, I am looking for a family for my cat ‘Boba’. She is a girl. She is 2 years old and rag doll breed. She is fully vaccinated and spayed. However, due to she is born to be one side of kidney and uterus, the vet failed to remove all the uterus remains. I was going to bring her to the specialty, but I need to leave US and go back to China urgently. If anyone who are willing to adopt her, I am more than happy to help you with the spay procedure. Boba has a very good personality. She is very outgoing and friendly. She deserves to have a warm and caring family. You can message me if you are interested. I live in McLean, I can drive her and all her accessories to your home!

Story
Rock Creek Cats, a nonprofit in the DC area, seeks barn homes for feral cats rescued from dangerous situations. These cats are not tame and need a home at a farm, horse stable, or other suitable outdoor environment with shelter. All the cats have been sterilized and vaccinated against rabies, and now need an outdoor home where they can live out their lives. Be prepared for a brief period of adjustment. Moving to a new home is stressful for anyone, cats included! After a short stay in secure confinement, the cats will accept their new home and be chasing mice out of your barn with enthusiasm. The cats will be delivered to their new homes. Guidance and supplies will be provided during the relocation process.

Story
When my brother Rufus (black) and I were rescued as little kittens from a backyard in Silver Spring, things seemed to be looking up for us. But while we were searching for our forever home, we both got very sick and were not expected to survive. We developed something called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), which has traditionally been nearly always fatal in cats. However, after undergoing a long but groundbreaking new treatment, we bounced back and grew into active young adults, and we are now considered “cured”. Life has basically returned to normal. We enjoy playing, exploring and getting petted. I've become a lap cat, while Rufus prefers to rub against human legs. Our search for a forever home has resumed, and we would prefer to be adopted together because we enjoy each other’s company.

Story
My brother Perry (tabby/white) and I were thought to be part of a feral cat colony in Kensington (Montgomery County), and we supposed to go through a trap-neuter-return (TNR) program. But we turned out to be too sweet to be returned outside. We were pretty shy at first but are coming out of our shells and like to be petted and held. We play with toys with a human assistant or on our own. Although we’re equally very cute, Decker definitely wins the toe contest – he has six extra! We’re looking for a patient adopter who will allow us to gradually warm up to a new home. Could you be the one?
