You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.NOTE- THESE CATS ARE LISTED AS A COURTESY FOR AN INDIVIDUAL ASKING TO REHOME THEIR PET.  PLEASE SEE CONTACT INFO BELOW. Two black kittens (yet to be named) were trapped by one of our volunteers after being found wandering outside.  The babies are solid black and are so cute! They are a little skittish because they have not been handled a lot, but should come around quickly. All have been fixed and vaccinated.  They will need time and lots of handling in their new home to become trusting of people. They play well together with each other.  We are requesting that they be adopted as a pair or have another cat in the home so that they have a mate. If you are interested in adopting a cute little kitty or two, please fill out an adoption application at www.reachoutrescue.org and contact Bernice at 703-475-5326Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 3, 2025, 2:52 pm

Story
Ember is in a foster home currently.A note from her foster:Ember has really started coming out of her shell - feral to couch potato! She wouldn`t let us near her when we first started fostering her. Now, she loves head scratches and will even roll over for a few belly scratches, on her terms. When pet, the purrs instantly start! She is still learning to trust humans but she is becoming the sweetest little thing. Her adopter will need patience. She still gets scared at times, but she is getting braver each day. Good with children, cats, and dogs.Please email hsccfosterteam@gmail.com to be put in touch with her foster family.

Mae is in a foster home.A note from her foster: Mae is a sweet, young momma who came to the shelter after giving birth to 4 kittens. She did a great job raising them, and now it is her turn to find a loving family of her own! Mae is about 1 year old and she is friendly but not in your face. She enjoys hanging out with her people, and does great with other cats. Mae is not a fan of being picked up, though she does tolerate it. She loves her treats and wet food. One of her favorite things is cuddling up in a sun beam on the bed. Please email hsccfosterteam@gmail.com to be put in touch with her foster!
