An approved adoption application is required to meet me in my foster home -- fill out an application today! Our cats are fostered in NoVA and DC homes.  Washington, D.C.- Suburban Virginia/Maryland Area inquiries only, please! Looking for a sleek tuxedo cuddle-bug to warm your heart and your lap? Suki is ready to find her forever home! Suki is a sweet girl with silky-soft fur, striking yellow eyes, and a heart full of love. She came to us after being bullied by cats in her previous home, so she is taking time to decompress in her foster home. Her affectionate nature is already shining through and she enjoys the younger child in her foster home. She isn't super focused on toys yet, but we are told she does like when her humans play with her with a wand toy or laser and she can go into hunting mode. Why you’ll fall in love with Suki: Cuddle Queen: Loves being held, hugged, petted, and falling asleep right in your lap. Loyal Companion: Will quietly follow you around, sit by your desk while you work, or keep you company while you watch TV. Certified Foodie: Meals and treats are the ultimate key to her heart!  Suki is looking for a home where she can settle in and share all her love with you!

Story
Lightning-fast, endlessly curious, and wonderfully bright, Willow is a pint-sized powerhouse who is always on the move! She approaches life like a joyful obstacle course—scouting new vantage points, climbing to the highest perch, and darting after laser dots with ninja-level precision. Lately, she’s even been training on the big cat exercise wheel, proudly showing off her athletic skills like a pro in the making. But for all her lightning speed, Willow is a total sweetheart at heart. She’s deeply social and loves sharing her days with everyone around her—whether she's wrestling and tumbling with her siblings, curling up beside her mama cat, or checking in with her favorite humans for affection. Willow is the total package: smart, sporty, and full of love! Willow is spayed, current on distemper (pending rabies when old enough), negative for FiV/FeLV, and micro chipped. *** PLEASE NOTE*** 4Paws will only consider local adoptions (Northern VA / DC / MD metropolitan area) 4Paws does not adopt to students Kittens under 6 months old need to go to a home that already has another active cat of similar age. Otherwise they need to be adopted with a kitten from their current foster home or a kitten from another 4Paws foster home.

Story
Meet Buffy! A sunbeam with paws, Buffy is a rare female ginger tabby with personality to spare. Precocious, relentlessly playful, and famously friendly, she believes every visitor is just a best friend she hasn’t met yet. When she isn’t chasing feather wands or figuring out how cabinet doors open, you’ll find her curling up right next to you, purring like a tiny motor. Buffy is pure joy and would make a wonderful addition to any loving family! Buffy is spayed, current on distemper and rabies vaccines, negative for FiV/FeLV, and micro chipped. *** PLEASE NOTE*** 4Paws will only consider local adoptions (Northern VA / DC / MD metropolitan area) 4Paws does not adopt to students Kittens under 6 months old need to go to a home that already has another active cat of similar age.

Story
True to her name, Cordelia is a queen in the making. She might be pint-sized, but her personality fills the entire room! Cordelia knows her worth and isn't shy about making her demands known—especially when mealtime is approaching. If dinner isn't served promptly on her schedule, she will let out a chorus of remarkably loud, operatic meows until VIP service is restored. But beneath all that spirited diva energy lies a remarkably sweet, tender kitten. Once her appetite is satisfied, Cordelia melts into pure affection. She adores head scratches, chin rubs, and curling up in your arms for a long snooze. When she's recharging between royal decrees, you’ll almost always find her tucked into a warm kitten pile, snuggled closely against her siblings and mama cat. Cordelia gives you the best of both worlds: bold attitude and bottomless love! Cordelia is spayed, current on distemper (and pending rabies when old enough), negative for FiV/FeLV, and micro chipped. *** PLEASE NOTE*** 4Paws will only consider local adoptions (Northern VA / DC / MD metropolitan area) 4Paws does not adopt to students Kittens under 6 months old need to go to a home that already has another active cat of similar age.
