Meet Smokey, aka Smoked Sausage. Smokey is a 13-year-old tabby who has perfected the art of looking deeply unimpressed while actually being a playful, energetic, and very entertaining cat. Just look at that face. Smokey appears to have several serious concerns he'd like to discuss with management. In reality, what he mostly wants to discuss is when you're going to play with him again. Smokey has a surprising amount of energy for a 13-year-old. He loves chasing toys, batting at anything interesting, and generally behaving like someone forgot to tell him he's a senior citizen. He also makes the most adorable little chirping sounds when he wants something. And he will let you know when he has a request. Smokey is a little timid and may take some time to feel comfortable with new people. He isn't the cat who is likely to march into a new house and immediately assume ownership of the place. Give him some time, let him come to you, and you'll get to know the funny, playful personality hiding behind that perpetually grumpy expression. When Smokey came into foster care, he was very skinny and was already on a prescription renal diet. He has done well in foster care, but he will need to remain on a prescription renal diet for life. He also takes oral medication for his tummy. Fortunately, Smokey is an easy patient: he happily takes his medication when it's tucked into pill wrap. There is one important requirement for Smokey's new home: he needs to live in a dog-free household. Smokey is terrified of dogs and would not be comfortable sharing his home with one. Smokey is currently living with his "sister." They aren't related by blood, but they came from the same former owner. They get along, but they aren't bonded, so Smokey does not need to be adopted with her. His ideal home would be a relatively quiet one where he can settle in at his own pace. Older children who understand that a cat may need some time to warm up would likely be fine. He also has excellent litter box etiquette, because apparently even a cat who looks this judgmental has impeccable manners. If you're looking for a senior cat who still has plenty of kitten in him, loves to play, communicates with adorable chirps, and comes with his own permanently grumpy facial expression, Smokey may be your guy.   To  adopt you must first complete an adoption application and meet the cat in its foster home. We do not do same day adoptions so, generally, we can only adopt within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Meet Haley, 14 years old and absolutely convinced that your lap belongs to her. Haley is the kind of cat who makes you wonder why anyone ever decided that cats are aloof. This beautiful girl is extremely sweet, loves attention, and is a serious lap-cat professional. Her favorite activity is curling up on her person and going to sleep. If you sit down, there is a good chance Haley will interpret that as an invitation. If you lie down, even better. She especially loves sleeping on her person, and once she decides you're hers, she wants to be close. And then there is her fur. It is unbelievably soft. Seriously, you'll want to keep petting her. Haley is a little skittish and can be nervous in unfamiliar situations, so she needs a quiet home and someone who will let her build confidence at her own pace. But underneath that initial caution is a wonderfully affectionate cat who really enjoys having a person of her own. She's also playful and still very much enjoys batting at toys and having a good time. She may be 14, but she has not retired from the important business of playing. Haley currently lives with Smokey, her "brother." They aren't related by blood but came from the same former home. They get along fine, but they aren't bonded. Haley would probably be happiest as the only cat, where she doesn't have to share her person, or her lap. Haley is afraid of dogs, so she needs a dog-free home. Haley does have some ongoing medical needs, but they are quite manageable. She takes a thyroid medication and gabapentin for her arthritis pain, neither of which is particularly expensive. She also needs to remain on a prescription renal diet. Her adopter will need to be comfortable continuing her medications and dietary care. She also has excellent litter box manners, because even when she's busy occupying your lap, she takes care of business. What Haley wants is someone who will appreciate a slightly shy cat who becomes deeply attached once she trusts you, and who doesn't mind having a soft, purring, sleeping cat permanently installed on their lap.   To  adopt you must first complete an adoption application and meet the cat in its foster home. We do not do same day adoptions so, generally, we can only adopt within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Macaroni was born mid to late April and is a large brown tabby male. Macaroni warms up quickly to new people and is the absolute sweetest. He enjoys playtime, meal time, and cuddle time. He is often part of the feline pile ups on someone's lap and enjoys sleeping on the bed with his humans, wherever there is an open space. He is happy as long as his humans are in the same room as him. He is very laid back and happy to go with the flow, whether waiting happily to be pet or being moved to a different nap spot. Macaroni does not seem to enjoy being alone in a room and would appreciate a full time companion. He would like to go home with his brother Linguine.   To  adopt you must first complete an adoption application and meet the cat in its foster home. We do not do same day adoptions so, generally, we can only adopt within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Linguine is a grey and white swirl tabby male born mid to late April. Linguine is a sociable sweetheart who adores flopping down next to you or sprawling out on top of you. He has the softest fur and a cute little meow. Linguine is extremely trusting and relaxed, and will be happy to vibe with any guests you may have. He does not like being alone, and would very much prefer to live with his brother Macaroni. His favorite place is on top of a fuzzy blanket on your lap. He really enjoys meal time and will start crying with excitement when his caretakers enter the kitchen. Linguine will also try to share his human friends' meals, especially if the humans are on the couch instead of at the table. To  adopt you must first complete an adoption application and meet the cat in its foster home. We do not do same day adoptions so, generally, we can only adopt within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

Tigress and Pantera's Personalities DOB: 3/31/26 Tigress and Pantera are friendly, loving and playful partners in crime. They adore each other and are best buddies. They love chasing and wrestling with each other. They often sleep curled up together and sometimes groom each other demonstrating their bond. Turn on a battery operated toy and they are occupied for a long time. They adapt easily to new people and new environments. When they aren't playing or snoozing, the girls love to sit in the window and watch the world go by. Tigress (brown tabby) is a little tiger. She is mostly brown with stripes, but has a cute white dot on her chest and some white on her belly. She's not shy about rolling over for you to give her a belly rub. Tigress is a close second behind her sister Pantera to greet you when you return home. She purrs and then rolls over to greet you. Tigress is fine with being picked up and carried around, especially if this means she can explore a new space. Pantera (black) is a little panther. She has a sleek and shiny black coat - perfect for petting. She is the first to run to greet you with a little meow or chirp to tell you about her day. She is not shy one bit. Pantera loves to curl up next to you or in your lap if she's not already curled up next to her sister. She is easy to pick up and carry around although if she's in play mode, she wiggles for you to put her down so she can chase the imaginary things in her world. What Type of Home They Need These sisters will settle easily into any type of home where they will get plenty of love, interaction and affection. As long as they get plenty of interaction and have windows to watch the world outdoors, they will thrive with a single person, couple or family with kids over about 8 years of age.  Where They Came From The girls came from a loving home where their family asked for help finding them a home together.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.

Felipe's Personality DOB: 2/2025 Felipe is a young, friendly, and playful grey and white tabby. He has cute black toe beans and looks like he’s wearing black lipstick and eyeliner! He LOVES other cats and needs a cat buddy in his forever home. In Felipe’s typical day, he engages one of his two foster “brothers” in chase-and-wrestle games until his brother wears out! Felipe is respectful of his older foster “brother,” who sometimes tries to show Felipe who is “boss.” Felipe loves to play in his “cat tunnel” and chase a toy on a fishing pole. He enjoys pouncing and wrestling with your hand that’s hidden under a blanket. He also likes to hide behind a bedspread and ambush you playfully as you walk past. When playtime is done, Felipe likes to watch the wildlife outside his sunroom window and nap there. Felipe is not shy one bit and settled into is foster home quickly. Never hiding and wanting to explore. He has a quiet meow and rarely speaks. In foster care, he is becoming more affectionate. When first rescued, Felipe was comfortable being petted only when eating. But more and more, he enjoys petting and is getting use to being picked up for short periods of time. His foster mom is confident he will become a true love bug in the right loving home. Type of Home Felipe Needs Felipe is a young, strong cat who needs an experienced cat caretaker who wants to play with him for about an hour a day and is patient about letting him learn to enjoy more affection. He needs another young male cat in his forever home to bond and play with. He may do ok with an older cat-savvy child (12 years or older) who plays with him. No younger children now or in the future. Where Felipe Came From Felipe was found outdoors by a kind family with 3 cats and 2 dogs of their own. They would have loved to keep him but with an already full household, they cared for him until he was transferred to SPCA’s care.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.

Mango's Personality DOB: 1/1/26 Note: Mango NEEDS a young, playful MALE cat buddy in his forever home.  Mango is a very handsome orange and white tabby with big green eyes. He is a social and playful guy who loves being around people. Mango trots over to greet everyone who comes his way, stranger or not. He settles in for a nap on a warm lap (or chest if you’re horizontal) once he's done playing or exploring. He likes being carried around for short periods of time and is quick to purr. Mango enjoys being petted, but like many cats, lets you know when he has had enough. The same goes with playing. He chases a mouse on a string, bats a ball around the floor, or plays with interactive toys for a while, but then walks away like he has better things to do! Mango can get a little over stimulated when petting or when you walk by - he may grab your leg. This tells us he needs plenty of interaction - activity around him, toys to play with and a kitty friend. Mango loves his cat tree and spends hours on the top perch napping or looking out the window. He also loves running water and likes to stand outside the bathroom to let you know he wants in - so he can jump up on the counter and drink while not caring that he is immersing his head in the water getting soaking wet! What Type of Home Mango Needs Mango needs a home with multiple people who are available to hang out with him. He is not demanding, but likes to be near people. Like most young male cats, Mango needs a like-minded male kitty to bond and play with. Mango sometimes nips or grabs your hands to let you know  he has had enough petting or playing or tries to get your attention. This behavior will subside once he has a cat buddy to occupy his time. He may do ok with an older cat-savvy child (over about 12 years of age) as long as he also has a cat buddy to play with. No young children now or in the future. Where Mango Came From Mango was a stray kitty who was trying to get inside an office building when a kind woman encountered him outdoors. Of course, this kitty - only about 6 months old at the time - had no business being outdoors. She brought him indoors for safekeeping and when nobody claimed him, he was transferred to SPCA's care.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.
