Story
Hi there! I'm Sasha, a beautiful two-year-old calico with bright green eyes, adorable white 'socks,' and a one-of-a-kind patchwork coat that's as unique as I am. Just like most calicos, I have a little sparkle of personality mixed in with my sweetness—you might have heard people call it 'cattitude,' but I prefer to think of it as confidence! In true calico spirit, I may keep you guessing a little at first! I take my time settling in and showing everyone who I am. One thing's for sure—I'm every bit as unique as my colorful coat, and I'm looking forward to finding a family who will let me blossom at my own pace. If you're looking for a gorgeous companion with a little calico charm and a lot of potential, I just might be your perfect match. With patience, love, and a cozy place to call my own, I'm ready to blossom into someone's best friend. Could it be with you?

Story
Hi, I'm Charlie! I'm a sweet and playful boy. I have a gentle heart, a charming personality, and a whole lot of love to give. I love being around my people and am always happy to enjoy some affection, a little playtime, or simply hang out nearby while you go about your day. My new friends say I'm a perfect gentleman with impeccable manners. My absolute favorite thing is having my ears scratched. If you stop too soon, I might gently reach out and grab your hand as my very polite way of saying, 'Excuse me, I wasn't finished being adored yet!' I'm affectionate without being demanding and have a wonderful way of making my people feel special. I love companionship and will happily keep you company throughout the day. When playtime is over, there's nothing better than settling into a cozy spot and enjoying some quality time together. I also love a sunny window where I can watch the world go by and chatter about all the neighborhood happenings! Give me some fun toys to keep my playful side happy, a sunny spot for birdwatching, and a cozy place beside you for relaxing, and I'll be one happy boy. I'm a distinguished gentleman with so much love waiting to be shared. Could you be my forever family? I think we should meet!   Adoption fee $200, includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, sterilized, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Mango & Peanut: Double the Fun, Double the Love! Looking for the perfect kitten pair? Meet Mango and Peanut, two best friends who are ready to find a forever home together. Mango is a stunning calico girl with a sweet, gentle nature and a heart full of love. She is the ultimate lap kitten, happiest when curled up beside her people, purring contentedly while soaking up pets and affection. When she's not snuggling, you'll often find her perched in a sunny window, quietly watching birds and squirrels as they pass by. Mango is a loyal little companion who simply wants to be near her humans. Peanut is her playful partner in crime. Nicknamed 'Geronimo,' this gray-and-white tabby is always ready for his next adventure. Whether he's leaping after wand toys, exploring every corner of the room, or zooming around with kitten enthusiasm, Peanut brings endless joy and laughter wherever he goes. Once playtime is over, he turns into a cuddle bug who loves belly rubs, kisses, and falling asleep beside his favorite people with a loud purr. Together, Mango and Peanut are the perfect combination of cuddly and playful. They adore each other and balance one another beautifully. Both are affectionate, social kittens who get along well with other cats and dogs. Whether they're chasing toys, birdwatching from the window, or snuggled together for a nap, these two are guaranteed to fill your home with love, entertainment, and plenty of purrs. If you're looking for a bonded pair to share your life with, Mango and Peanut are ready to win your heart and bring twice the love to their forever home. It is Fancy Cats’ policy to not adopt kittens singly without another young and/or playful dog or cat in the home. Adoption fee includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, spay/neuter, microchip Bonded pair adoption fee: $525   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Story
Meet Luna! Luna is a sweet, affectionate girl who is about 2 years old and loves being around her people. She can be a little shy when she first meets someone or enters a new environment, but once she warms up and feels comfortable, she truly is a wonderful cat. She gets along wonderfully with both cats and dogs and has also lived with a 4-year-old child, so she is comfortable around kids. Luna is a total love bug! She loves curling up on your lap while you’re watching TV or working from home and will happily snuggle up next to you on the couch or bed. She’s also the type of cat who wants to be wherever you are  even in the bathroom! She’ll happily sit with you while you’re getting ready or keep you company while you shower. She’s very affectionate and enjoys being close to her person, so she would love a home where she can receive lots of love and attention. She’s also a well-mannered girl who doesn’t scratch furniture. Luna knows her name and will come running when she’s called! While she loves attention and companionship, she also enjoys having some quiet alone time when she wants to relax. Luna is looking for a loving home where she can be part of the family and get all the affection she deserves. She truly is a little love bug who would make a wonderful companion.  Adoption fee $200, includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, sterilized, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Story
Hello, I’m Tom. My brother Jerry and I came to our current foster family in July 2026. We are a pair of slender black cats with big paws to grow into. An interesting feature is our white whiskers. I have lots of little white whiskers around my mouth and my brother Jerry has one long white whisker on each side. They are in the center of each side and go straight out looking like a skinny mustache.  I am known as Prince Tom at my foster house, a most suitable title. I wear a princely purple collar. I go boneless when picked up and like to gaze at you while I purr.  My brother and I are both lap cats who love to play with each other or with anything that could be considered a toy. We can be quite rambunctious. We can’t wait to meet you! We are currently staying in Leesburg with our foster family. There are four humans. Two are big and two are medium (aged 10 and 12). The 2 girls in our foster house dress us up and swaddle us to cuddle. There are also 2 adult male cats and 2 large dogs. Please ask to come meet us!  Adoption fee $200, includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, sterilized, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

Story
If you prefer a more quiet friend that is happy to hang out and isn’t going to ambush your ankles, Frankie might be your girl. She arrived with a special leg (see photos) and at her last vet visit they don’t think it needs to be amputated. She does walk with a limp, though when she does get zoomies (and for her they are short lived), she keeps up with her siblings.   Frankie would do best with a calm, confident cat. She and her mom (not available yet) seem to be on the same page: right lane drivers. She does well with her siblings (Wren & Lux) and would do fine with them as well. She is more meditation and yoga; her siblings are better suited for Kettle Bells and Zumba.   Once you give her time to settle in and adjust, she’ll be more affectionate and social. We don’t know what happened with her leg, but she is a little apprehensive to make friends until she knows you are good people.  It is Fancy Cats’ policy to not adopt kittens singly without another young and/or playful dog or cat in the home. Adoption fee includes: first 2 FVRCP vaccines, deworming, flea preventatives, spay/neuter, microchip Adoption fee: $350.00   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.
