Like all Furever Home cats, Jack is FeLV positive. If you need more information about FeLV, feel free to reach out to us at FureverHomeMD@gmail.com or call 301.703.1674. Meet Jack! This amazing mini-panther is such a sweetheart, and the perfect age. He’s young enough to still love his toys, but old enough so he won’t pull your curtains down and destroy your world. He’s a sweet & cuddly guy who adapts well. He’s very vocal and will have full out conversations with you. He’ll also remind you when you’re late with dinner. He has perfect cat etiquette and uses his litter box. His favorite hobbies include bathing in sunbeams, laying across your shoulders while binging on the Nature Channel, snuggling you in bed and head butting. He may be slightly shy at first, but he warms up quickly. If you have questions about Jack, please email FureverHomeMD@gmail.com or message us on FB through https://www.facebook.com/FureverHomeMD

Ziggy is the most adorable petite little purrbox! She is a very young adult who loves to snuggle and play. She’s outgoing and curious and adapts well to new situations. She has impeccable kitty litter habits. She’d do well with (respectful) children and laid back dogs. She loves sunshine beams, playing with toys and napping with her humans. She’s an all around purrfect little girl! Like all cats at Furever Home, Ziggy is FeLV positive. She must be either an only cat or in a home with another FeLV positive cat. If you have questions about FeLV or want to know more about Ziggy, call or email: FureverHomeMD@gmail.com 301.703.1674

Story
Due to child with allergies, I am unable to continue providing the care and attention that Sophia deserves.We have had Sophia for 3 years and finally narrowed down the my eldest child has a cat allergy. It is incredibly important to me that she finds a nurturing environment where she will be cherished and cared for. Sophia is a 9 years-old domestic short hair cat with a gentle and affectionate personality. She loves to cuddle and is best friends with our dog. Sophia is spayed, but due for her rabies vaccine. Sophia also gets her own set of allergies, usually in the winter. She has been seen by a vet and determined to be in good health and her seasonal sneezing is not of concern. She is box trained and has never gone outside of the box. Sophia is used to being around dogs and children. She does not like her back area to be rubbed but loves attention. Thank you for considering opening your heart and home to Sophia. I trust that she will get the love and care that she deserves.

Story
Little Leon was born in the shelter on March 16, 2021. He has a super-sweet disposition and loves to snuggle for long periods. He has a neurological condition called cerebellar hypoplasia, often referred to as CH. This causes him to wobble and stumble as he walks. His condition will not get worse. Leon is a really happy kitten and doesn’t let that slow him down. He gets right in the mix of playing with his littermates. He loves to climb into the seat of a nearby doll stroller and watch all of the action as well. Leon is being fostered in Hampstead, MD (Carroll Co). To apply to adopt Leon complete our adoption application online at www.finallyhomeanimalrescue.com. Contact Debbie at dfiackos@finallyhomeanimalrescue.com with any questions.

Story
Sabrina is a 2 year old petite girl with super sleek fur. She is a bit shy at first but warms up quickly. She loves to be petted and scratched under the neck. She has lots of love to give. When she gets excited her tail even does this funny little twitch that will make you laugh. I think she is trying to pick up radio stations. She would do ok by herself but think she would do best having a companion cat, around her age or younger that is not dominant. Sabrina likes to play with toys, the wand type and catnip furry mice. This funny girl is addicted to Temptation cat treats and will come screaming when she hears the bag rattle. When she is not napping she is constantly on the go but loves to be on the sofa or next you when its time to relax. If you're looking for a lovable girl Sabrina could be for you. Sabrina's foster home is located in Silver Run/ Westminster (Carroll County). Adoption Fee: $75 To meet/adopt Sabrina, please fill out our online adoption application at www.finallyhomeanimalrescue.com Contact Jamie Brown at jbrown@finallyhomeanimalrescue.com with any questions. Prior to adoption all cats/kittens are spayed/neutered, receive age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, FELV/FIV tested and treated for parasites.

Story
Who says you don’t get second chances in life? That’s certainly not true for this sweet older lady. We don’t know much about her back story, but what we do know is that somehow she found herself alone on the streets of Baltimore. She was taken to Baltimore Animal Control, where everyone there immediately fell in love with her. As stressful as it must have been to lose her home, be kicked out on the street and then wind up at a busy shelter, her wonderful disposition just shined right through. She absolutely adores people and was a well loved pet at one point. She can’t get enough of being petted and receiving belly rubs. She is an easy going ol’ gal and gets along fine with other cats and animals. She’s extremely adaptable. She has perfect litter box skills and manners. She’s not one to climb up curtains or scratch on furniture. Her favorite thing in the world is just to snooze next to her person. She does have a playful side, but in general she’s a very calm girl. Just an all around sweetheart. She will make a new family very happy. Like all Furever Home cats, Uni is FeLV positive. If you’d like more information about FeLV or Uni, please contact FureverHomeMD@gmail.com or call 301.703.1674

Hi! My name is Rollie Pollie! I have no clue how to say how amazing I am in words. You have to meet me to believe it. My foster mum says I’m bomb proof. Nothing phases me. But why should it? Life is too short and I want to experience everything! Mum says that makes me sassy and a little insane, but I think my positive, curious and friendly personality serve me well. If there’s a closed door, I want to see what’s behind it. If there’s a new animal, I want to meet it. If there’s a new food, I want to eat it. Stop and smell the roses, make a new friend and live life to the fullest. That’s my motto! Like all the other cats at my rescue, I am FeLV positive. If you don’t know what that is or have any questions, feel free to email my foster mum at FureverHomeMD@gmail.com or call 301-703-1674. She loves talking about how great we Felvies are!

Story
Sweet little Daisy has every reason to distrust people, but like most animals, they are willing to give us a second, and sometimes a fifth, chance. Daisy was abandoned on the streets with her brother when her family moved out and left them behind. A few months later, her brother was attacked and killed by a dog. Luckily for her, a caring neighbor began looking out for her and leaving food. As time passed, it became apparent that little Daisy was just not doing well as an outside cat. Her fur lost it’s shine and Daisy began to get sick. Again the nice neighbors took her in, but unfortunately for her, by then she had contracted FeLV so the neighbors couldn’t keep her. Because there are not nearly enough FeLV rescues, many have a long waitlist. The neighbors were concerned Daisy wouldn’t survive outside in the hot summer so they expanded their search until they found us. The problem was that we were a 16 hour drive away! But the nice neighbors were willing to make that sacrifice for Daisy. And we very quickly understood why. Daisy is so worth it!!!! She is the most lovable little girl! She loves to snuggle with her people whenever she can, but she’s not overly Velcro either. She loves to play with her toys as well, but she’s also ok on her own through the day. She has the most adorable little chirp and will actually have an entire conversation with you, although we admit, sometimes it’s hard to understand what she’s saying. She also has impeccable litter habits and will actually wipe her little paws off before walking away from the litter box. In summary, Daisy is perfect! Like all our cats, Daisy is FeLV positive. If you’d like more information on what that means, feel free to call us at 301.703.1674 or email FureverHomeMD@gmail.com.
