Story
Zosar is a gorgeous pure white Persian boy we are thrilled to have with us. We are not sure of his age, but he is around 3 years old. He was abandoned like trash on the street. But he is safe now. Zosar is so friendly and sweet. He loves human attention and gets along with other feline friends.. He enjoys brushing and plays well with toys. We would like to see Zosar adopted into a home experienced with caring for Persians and/or long haired cats. His fur needs to be maintained. Fostered in Fairfax, VA.

Story
Manny is a stunning medium to long hair male cat rescued off the mean streets. He is safe now. Manny has the most fluffy ruff that surrounds his face. Could be some Maine coon in him. Part Persian. Not sure. Manny has never met a human or cat he does not like. He craves attention. Can be a bit needy at first. Boy, can he play. He needs a large space with a lot of activity. He was in a small apartment for a month and the family realized he has to be able to run around and explore. Extremely active. Manny needs stimulation so another active cat is paramount. He will do great with kids and probably a dog. Fostered in Fairfax, VA

Atlas was found on the street with little boys terrorizing him. Thank God a kind lady grabbed him and took him away. She was too afraid Atlas would go back to that area so she grabbed him and took him to safety. Atlas is a long haired white boy with stunning big yellow eyes. We think he is part Persian and maybe has some Turkish van in him due to his very silky fur. He has blossomed in his foster home once he felt safe. Loves to be petted and doted on. Gets along famously with other cats. We would like to see him in a home with Persian or long haired cat experience. These cats need regular brushing and care. Fostered in Fairfax, VA

Story
Meet Jessy a tiny queen with a giant heart. Jessy is a petite, fluffy beauty with soulful gold-green eyes, adorable ear tufts, and a gentle personality that wins people over quickly. Once she settles into her surroundings, she transforms into an affectionate companion who loves attention, pets, and being wherever her people are. She's the kind of cat who greets you at the door, supervises your daily activities, and rewards your affection with a deep, steady purr that seems to come from her very soul. Calm, observant, and endlessly curious, Jessy enjoys the simple pleasures in life: a catnip mouse, a dangling string toy, a sunny spot to lounge in, and plenty of quality time with her favorite humans. Her foster mom believes she'd make an excellent office assistant, happily overseeing Zoom meetings, keyboard work, and coffee breaks while providing quiet companionship throughout the day. Jessy's loving nature was evident long before she arrived in the U.S. In Egypt, she formed a particularly close bond with her rescuer, often seeking her out for bedtime cuddles and snuggles. She also proved herself to be an excellent traveler during her journey, making her the perfect sidekick for anyone looking for a feline companion who can adapt to new adventures. This sweet girl has endured more than she deserved. After being abandoned by her family, Jessy was rescued and given a second chance. Her beautiful long coat (which hints at Persian ancestry) had to be significantly trimmed before travel due to severe neglect, but with regular grooming, good nutrition, and lots of love, it will grow back into the plush, luxurious fur she was meant to have. While Jessy gets along well with other cats, she would also be happy as your one-and-only pet, provided she has plenty of attention and companionship. She truly thrives on human connection and would love a home where she's considered part of the family. Having recently completed her journey from Egypt in search of a forever home, Jessy is now being fostered in Burke and is ready to begin her next chapter. Because of the special bond they shared, her adopter should be willing to occasionally share updates with the rescuer who loved and cared for her. Jessy is fully vetted with vaccines, spay, combo testing and has a microchip. Jessy's adoption fee is $325, which helps cover her international travel, veterinary care, and also supports the dedicated rescuers in Egypt who continue saving vulnerable cats like her. If you're looking for a sweet, loyal companion who will fill your home with purrs, affection, and gentle companionship, Jessy may be the perfect match. She has traveled thousands of miles for her second chance and now needs someone to love her forever.

Story
Nova’s Personality DOB: 5/2019 Meet Nova...a beautiful, affectionate, playful, and chatty girl who just wants to be close to her humans. Need a bodyguard for the bathroom? She's got you covered! Nova even checks in after you take a shower just to make sure you're okay. This sweet fluffy girl loves to cuddle up in your lap with a cozy blanket and may even curl her paws to hold your hand while she snoozes. She just wants to be your little shadow. Nova also loves playing with her humans. She chases after a laser, leaps to the highest heights to catch a tossed fluffy ball, and loves tackling feathered wand toys. She enjoys lots of petting and even being brushed for short periods. But mostly, she just wants to curl up close by, knowing you will keep her safe. What Type of Home Nova Needs Nova needs a quieter home without other pets or young children - now or in the future. An older child in a quiet home would be fine if the child knows how to interact with cats. She needs to have a stable, loving home that will give her a little time to adapt. Nova may be shy at first with new people, but she quickly warms up to a peaceful, loving home environment. Where Nova Came From Nova was recently adopted from a shelter by a kind woman who has given her a loving home. However, her resident cat has not accepted her. To give Nova the right home environment, SPCA has agreed to find Nova a new home that gives her the peace and stability she needs to thrive. Nova was in her original home since she was a kitten until her family added two other cats, a dog and two children to their home. When Nova didn't adapt well to these changes, they surrendered her to a shelter. PLEASE NOTE:  we only adopt to residents of the DC metro area, which includes DC, Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in MD, and Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and Loudoun Counties in VA. Please see our adoption guidelines at  https://spcanova.org/about-us/adoption-policies/. June 25, 2026, 12:14 am
