Tabby kittens & cats in Arlington, Virginia

You might be wondering why I named an orange Tabby ‘Shadow’. Well he’s a super friendly cat that loves to be around people and will follow you around just like one! He loves to be picked up and play. I’ve jokes that he’s more dog like than cat like at times. He’s really a great cat and deserves better than I have the bandwidth to give at the moment. I’d love to find someone who will love him and play with him. He is a very vocal guy and will talk to you

This sweet, gentle cat has a calm and loving personality. She enjoys relaxing on soft surfaces, keeping close to her person, and soaking up quiet companionship. She’s affectionate without being overwhelming and has a very laid-back, well-mannered demeanor. She would thrive in a peaceful home with someone who appreciates a calm, loving cat that enjoys comfort and routine.

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!

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.

Milo is an extremely affectionate cat. He loves people and is so friendly. He’s house trained and never has accidents outside the litter box. He was adopted during COVID and I’ve started traveling quite often for work. I hate leaving him at home all the time! He deserve a loving home with a companion who loves to cuddle. He will always greet you at the door when you come home and chin scratches are his favorite. He is playful and loves to perch at the top of sofas and play with his laser before bed. Milo will come with one months supply of food, treats, toys, and a little box. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

Note: Luna needs a new foster or forever home by the end of February 2026. His foster family will be selling their home and moving.  Luna's Personality Luna is a very friendly, inquisitive, and confident kitty. Despite his name, Luna is a BOY! When he was a kitten, his family thought he was a girl so they named the kitten Luna. He knows his name so we haven't changed it. Luna is a very social cat - he loves hanging out with his foster family and when guests come into your home he walks right up to greet them and often plops down on the ground to entice them to play with him. He loves being petted, and perching in front of a window to watch the world go by outdoors. Luna can be quite talkative so be prepared to have conversations with him! Luna loves interactive playtime with his foster family. One of his favorite interactions is when you wave a string on a wand so he can play with and jump on it. He also plays with toys on his own and likes having a box or drawer full of toys that he can rummage through and decide what to play with next. Luna also loves to hop inside a box or a paper bag. He even plays "hide and seek" with you - he will hide and loves having you look for him then he'll gently jump out at you. What Type of Home Luna Needs Luna needs a home where he gets plenty of interaction with people and has room to roam around. He is used to living in a single family home with multiple people, including children. A home with more than one person would be ideal. A single person home could work if that person is home a good part of the time and has guests that visit. A family with older kids (over 12 yrs of age) who are cat-savvy would be great, but no young children. He can get a little 'mouthy' when he plays - we are teaching him some manners. We don't know how he would be with other cats or dogs. Where Luna Came From Luna came from a loving home that was no longer able to care for him. So they contacted their neighborhood "cat lady" who happens to be an SPCA NOVA volunteer to ask for help finding Luna a new home.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.

&#239&#187&#191&#239&#187&#191Celeste's Personality  Celeste may remind you of a pup the way she wants to sniff your hand before letting you pet her. It’s probably to see if you have a treat for her! When you’re sleeping, she may crawl up on your pillow to lull you to sleep with her purrs. And she purrs a lot. Very loud and very often. Celeste is happiest when she is chasing her laser pointer, taking a nap in the sun shining through a window, or hanging out with her foster parents. This chunky charmer likes to be close by and follows you from room to room. This “heavenly” girl is super sweet. She is also a bit shy and will take a little time to warm up, but once she does, Celeste is a delightfully soft mush of a cat. Then she’ll be looking for pets as she sits on top of her cat tree. And give her a bit of catnip and she’ll be rolling over for a bunch of belly rubs. We love her sassy way of telling us what she wants. This girl is a talker…when she wants something, she will let you know. It’s all friendly talk, and very hard to resist. We find that she also likes to watch a little TV…so far tennis has been her favorite! She’ll perk up and watch the TV screen from next to you on the couch or her cat tree. It’s really cute. Between the catnip, the treats and her tree, she happily spends the day with you. Keeping an eye on your comings and goings. You’ll enjoy her gentle and endearing company. What Type of Home Celeste Needs  Celeste needs a peaceful home with an experienced cat caretaker who understands that she will need a little time to adapt. She would be fine with a quiet, older cat-savvy child. Celeste would do best as the only cat in her home unless she stays with her sister, Nova (posted separately). They do fine together but don't interact much because they have different personalities and needs.  Celeste is on a very strict calorie and portion-controlled over-the-counter canned food diet. Her caretakers need to be committed to sticking with her strict weight management plan with monthly weight checks. We will supply a pet scale to keep her on track. Where Celeste Came From  Celeste, and her sister, Nova (adopted), were adopted out as kittens to what we thought was a wonderful home. Sadly, their caretakers decided, just shy of their 8th birthdays, they didn’t want them anymore. However, based on their neglectful condition, this has turned out to be a good thing even though this upheaval has been hard on Celeste. Both girls appear healthy despite being very overweight. Getting the girls to a healthy weight of about 12 lbs each will take time but will ensure better health and longer lives. 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.
