Story
London is a 9-month bundle of love an affection. He loves to run, jump and play, but is often found sitting in his window seat, watching the birds and swatting the bees (on the outside of the glass). He has a hilarious personality that drives him to leave gifts of toys under doors or jump in empty boxes to bathe himself.

Story
Hello, humans! My name is Keiko, and I'm here to share my story with you. You see, I'm not your typical cuddly, affectionate feline. Nope, I'm what some might call an independent spirit, packaged in the beautiful body of a tuxedo cat.    I've had a bit of a rough start in life, and it's left me a tad wary of people. Before I came to live with my foster parent, I had terrible dental disease, and I had to have all my teeth removed. I’m still a great eater, enjoying hard and soft food.  Being outdoors is off limits to me, as it’s not safe for me without my teeth to help protect me. Which doesn’t bother me at all, as I like being indoors.I love playing with my toys, but I don’t really enjoy playing with humans.  I like being in the same room with my foster, occasionally granting her permission to pet me, but I am not a lap kitty.  I do enjoy an occasional brushing on my belly, though. Deep down, I'm just a misunderstood kitty looking for a place to call home. I may not come running to greet you at the door with purrs and headbutts, but give me time, and you'll see there's a whole lot more to me than meets the eye. I’m searching for a patient, understanding cat lover who is willing to respect my independence, and love me anyway! I think I’ll thrive in a quiet, all adult home, where I’m the only non-human. If you think we might be right for each other, please contact PAW at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.com ##1849327##

Story
Batman is a stunning black male cat, who was born in July 2022.  He came to us in the Summer of 2023 as a one year old, and he is now ready for his furr-ever home!! He has been living in a loving foster home since that time, which he shares with other cats and dogs.He loves being petted on his head, under his chin and he delights in ear scratches, but his back and belly are off limits!  This is a young fella' who knows his boundaries, and he will let you know too. He can be a lovable young gent, but he does not like getting overstimulated.Therefore, it’s  thought he will live his best life in an environment where he will be the only four legged creature.  A quiet all adult home without children is recommended, as he seems to enjoy a calm environment.He is up to date on all his veterinary care and vaccinations, and he is neutered.Are you ready to open your home to Batman and give him a chance?  If so, please contact PAW @ cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org ##1849095##

Hello, I got Bambi as a stray cat. Unknowingly she was pregnant. She had 1 kitten. I can’t afford to maintain them both anymore. Bambi is an obedient cat, she’s funny, loves to make biscuits, loves to cuddle, follow you, and easy to bathe. She’s a tiny and good mama. Located in Washington D.C

Story
** I am currently being housed at our Oglethorpe St location. Come meet me at 71 Oglethorpe St NW, every day between 12pm-7pm. Or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more. Meow, my name is Cheddar, and I am looking for a new home where I can play, explore, and be spoiled. My owner could no longer care for me, so I am excited to start my next chapter. I am a sweet and affectionate girl but can sometimes get a little too excited. I would benefit from having a tall cat tree to climb and play time and enrichment to keep me happy and healthy. I am going to be so much fun to share a home with! If you are looking for a new bestie, I would love to offer my services. Stop by and meet me today!

Story
I'm in a FOSTER HOME! To meet me, email my foster parent at saborchardt@gmail.com.Allegria is a sweet girl who is afraid of most everything but seems to crave company (and food!). After hiding out for a little bit until she felt safe, she is now exploring her foster home, is getting more comfortable with each day, and has started to play. With patience, she should continue to come out of her shell, though she will likely need time to settle in to a new place. Because she is quite skittish, she would probably do better in a home without small children. She hasn't lived with other animals so we don't know how she would do with a furry friend. For more information about Allegria, please contact her foster parent at saborchardt@gmail.com.
