Story
It breaks my heart, but I need to re-home my recent rescue cat. I renamed Harrison (full name Harrison Ignastius Houdini Morningstar). Harrison is a near-perfect cat, except I got him to be friends with Oscar (full name Oscar Felipe Magnifico). Unfortunately, Harrison needs to be a solo cat, and Oscar needs not to be terrorized in his own home. This makes me very sad, as he is one great cat. He loves to play (he can fetch), is a snuggler, and can be picked up. If you are in need of this near-perfect, loving (to humans), playful, beautiful boy, please contact me. I can set up some time for you to meet him. Harrison deserves to have the best of everything.

Salaam is the most affectionate, calm, lover boy cat. He will sit on your lap and cuddle with you in bed. He is good with kids and other cats. He likes to sit in the window and watch the outdoors. He can be shy at times and will hide if some noises are too loud. He would make the most adorable companion

Story
Robert was a stray we found in our backyard. We began feeding him in the summer of 2025 and administering flea/tick/parasite topicals to keep him healthy. Around November 2025, when the temperature began to drop, we took Robert in and isolated him in our laundry room. He is super sweet and highly food motivated. We had a mobile vet come visit since he is adverse to getting in the carrier. He is up-to-date on all his vaccines and FIV+. Around February 2026, after following a proper and lengthy cat introduction, we let him join the rest of the pack in the house (2 dogs and 2 cats). Robert tolerates the cats, but is not dog friendly at all. He has managed to draw blood on one of our pups. We are looking to rehome him in an environment where he is the only pet. He gets along with people just fine.

Story
Chance has been an amiable companion since day one to his foster mom! We found him in the street but too friendly to release. He has chubby cheeks and the prettiest jade green eyes. He is also the longest cat we have ever seen, so we named him Mr. Big. His foster brothers were not very friendly at first, but he won them over and now they love him. If you think your cat would never welcome another cat into the household, give Chance a chance!

Story
I've had Midnight since she was a kitten. It was her and her brother. Unfortunately, they was born in the shelter and he had PIV. He passed six months after I first got them. She has always been very skittish. Takes a while for her to open up. She does not like to be picked up. Midnight is a very vocal girl. She will meow for attention and to play or eat.She loves playing with anything on a fishing rod that has feathers nd strings. Lately, I've noticed she isn't playing with her toys as much. I think she wants a friend. She gets along with other cats. My friends brings her cats by for play dates sometimes. She has a lot of energy to be three. Midnight has asthma and takes an inhaler twice a day. Even though its been a year of me giving her medicine she gives me a hard time. I'm looking to rehome due to medical reasons. I was able to pay for her medical care and make sure her asthma was treated. Now that I have to deal with my issues I will be unable to care fore her.

Story
Minna was rescued in Okinawa, Japan in 2018 with her littermates, who were adopted by friends and coworkers. She grew up with two adult dogs and still lives with one, whom she lovingly grooms and even shares a water bowl with. She greets you at the door like her puppy sibling and isn’t shy about reminding you when it’s mealtime. Minna is incredibly affectionate and loves cuddling beside her people. She’s gentle and very patient with children, tolerating lots of play, and only reacts if she is physically hurt or frightened. She’s not a fan of car rides but has handled trips for her spay and vaccinations like a champ. Our youngest child is developing a cat allergy, so we’re heartbroken to rehome her. Minna deserves a loving home with lots of lap time, warmth, and companionship. She’s a devoted, sweet cat who just wants to be close to her people.

Story
Yaya was born in Accra, Ghana in 2016, and has since moved to the UK and finally to Washington DC with his family. Sadly, Yaya lost his brother Sipho in December, and has really missed him. Yaya is a great cat and we love him, but it is hard for us to give him the attention that he needs with two small children of our own and work travel schedules that take us back to Weat Africa frequently. We think Yaya would really flourish in a home with other cats.
