Himalayan kittens & cats in Dumfries, Virginia

PLEASE READ: If you are interested in meeting and/or adopting, please apply online at www.catdogfriendrescue.com. Please do NOT call or send inquiries via Adopt A Pet or PetFinder as we are a small rescue and cannot handle a large influx of inquiries and phone calls. You can email us at acatsfriendinc@gmail.com if you have questions, but if you would like to be considered for adoption, you must fill out an application. Please note if you are applying for a kitten under six months of age, you must have another friendly kitty in the home or adopt another kitten. Additionally, unless otherwise indicted that this animal is a purebred, all of our animals are rescues and the "breed" selection is a best guess based on their apperance as we have no way of knowing their specific breeds.  Out of state adoptions (outside Virginia/DC/Maryland) do require three years of excellent past or current veterinary references. We look forward to hearing from you! Adoption Fee includes spay/neuter and microchip insertion.  Please note these are not pedigree animals and we have no way of attesting if any of them are hypoallergenic and as such cannot adopt to homes with allergies. ##2630831##

HOW THIS ANIMAL IS WITH: CATS: Fine with cats but happy as a single left alone DOGS: No dogs KIDS: No small kids KNOWN LIKES: Head scratches and Churu lickable treats KNOWN DISLIKES: Chaos, loud noises, handled too much ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Emily is a beautiful Himalayan mix, senior kitty. She was one of many cats left suddenly without a home when her human died. To keep her out of the shelter, she came to a foster home where we are getting to know her. Her world has been flipped upside down when she should be safe in comfort for her final years. Can you give Emily a safe place to land? She’s happy as a single cat in a calm home but she’s used to other cats so can easily live with them if they give her space. She keeps to herself and is happy to have head scratches from her human and then to sleep the day away in a sunny patch or in her covered cat bed. She loves nothing more than a good Churu lickable treat. Emily is 16 years old and is an easy-going girl with love to share if given a chance.

Safroota or Saffy as her foster mom calls her is a true stunner. This young Himalayan was purchased from a bad breeder. We are thrilled to have her. What a personality!! Saffy is the most friendly sweet young kitty. Loves people and all cats. She can play rough with the best of her foster friends. Saffy has very, very long cream colored fur that has to be groomed and maintained. She has a flatter face which can cause eye discharge under her eyes. Eye cleaning will need to be done on a regular basis. We would like to see Saffy in a home with an experienced family who knows how to groom and care for Persians, Himalayans and cats with long fur. Fostered in Fairfax, VA
