Tabby kittens & cats in Arlington, Virginia

Chip is a handsome fellow that will win you over with his dapper striped suit and soulful green eyes. While he maintains his independence during the day, at night he is the best cuddler ever. His magic purr will put you to sleep like the sweetest lullaby. He is also a true gourmand, and happy to share a bit of your evening meal or snack or a tasty kitty treat anytime you offer. Chip was adopted from a farm as a kitten, with his bonded brother from the same litter, Chuck. Since then, they have enjoyed chasing each other and playing together in a single-family home. They have enjoyed the outdoors, but now that they are older, they are content to stay inside most of the time. Chip is being relocated because his human moved into assisted living and cannot bring the cats with him. Because they are a bonded pair, we are looking to rehome the brothers together.

Chuck is sweet boy who enjoys hanging out with people. He loves to sit next to you and keep you company. Whatever you’re doing, he’s happy to be at your side. His favorite holiday is Christmas when he camps out under the tree waiting to unwrap presents. He is thrilled if there’s a catnip mouse to play with, but wrapping paper works just fine as a kitty toy too. He’s always down for a nap or nighttime snuggle together.

Safari loves his independent moments, as well as his attention moments. I wish I could hold onto him, as much as it hurts me I am moving and they don’t allow pets where I will be. He deserves a beautiful home, and true parents that will love him. He is fully trained, loves attention, and cat toys. He also enjoys his afternoon naps.

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 a 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. And you deserve the best cat.

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.

Note: Lily needs a foster home. She will be ready for adoption mid-May after she is spayed and other vetting is completed. Lily's Personality Lily is an adorable dilute calico - with plenty of grey and peach patches of color on a white coat. This girl is friendly, curious and bold. She doesn't have a care in the world. She enters a new home with new people and is immediately curious. After she is satisfied that her new space is to her liking, she is ready for playtime then lots of cuddles. She easily climbs into your lap when she wants some affection. And sleeps by your side at night. What Type of Home Lily Needs Lily thrives on playtime and interaction with people. So she needs a home where people are around to give her plenty of interactive play and attention. A home with older kids would be great. We have not seen Lily interact with other cats but are confident she would thrive in a home with another young, playful female cat. Where Lily Came From Lily came from a loving home with a family that suddenly lost their home. A family member took them in but couldn't accept Lily since other family members are allergic to cats. So this sweet girl suddenly found herself in need of a new home. Safe in SPCA's care, we will make sure she finds another loving 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.

Champ's Personality Meet Champ...a playful, affectionate, talkative brown tabby with golden eyes! What’s not to fall in love with? Be prepared for a kitty who follows you around and plops down next to you. Not to worry...if you are wondering where he has wandered off to in your home, just call his name and he's back to you in an instant.  Champ loves being around people - he greets you when you come home and even says hello to your guests! He loves being petted and showing you his belly. Champ also thrives on interactive playtime - especially chasing string toys, carrying little balls around in his mouth, and batting toys around. He snuggles with you in bed at night and is good about sleeping through most of the night. What Type of Home Champ Needs Champ needs a home where he gets plenty of people time. He's a young playful male cat who needs stimulation...interactive play, brushing, and ongoing interaction. He's social, playful and full of personality - an ideal companion for people who want an engaging cat. We haven't seen him interact with kids but he would likely do fine with kids who know how to interact with cats (about 8 years of age or older). We also think Champ would thrive in a home with another young playful male cat. He had a few brief interactions with the older cats in his first foster home with the woman who rescued him from outdoors. Her cats are elderly and not receptive to other cats...but Champ was persistent in wanting to interact with them. Where Champ Came From Champ was a stray kitty found outdoors crying for food and affection. Although he ran right up to the woman who found him, he was also very scared and would hide after eating or hearing a loud noise. He clearly didn't belong outdoors. Now safely indoors, with all of his vetting completed, he's a happy boy loving a good indoor-only life.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.

Note: Celeste needs new foster home by May 14 when her foster mom leaves town for the summer. Celeste'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 may need a little time to adapt. She was initially pretty reserved in her foster home but has completely come out of her shell. Celeste would be fine with an older cat-savvy child who understands how to be around cats. Celeste spent most of her life with her sister, Nova. They didn't, however, interact much with each other and now that Nova has been adopted, Celeste is actually happier and more outgoing. So she needs to be the only cat in your home. Celeste came into our care very overweight. She has made great progress losing weight and will need to stay on a very strict calorie and portion-controlled over-the-counter diet (mostly canned food). Her caretakers need to be committed to sticking with her strict weight management plan with monthly weight checks to monitor progress. 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.
