Story
Vincent is a male cat that was adopted as a stray kitten by my ex husband. He had Vincent for about15 years when he unexpectedly passed away. My daughter took Vincent in bc he had nowhere to go on such short notice. The problem is that my daughter will be moving back in with me (to Maryland) and I am allergic.

Story
Chloe is 1 year-old Domestic Shorthair mix who weighs 7 lbs. She was surrendered to CHA when her owner could no longer care for her. Chloe loves people, and she will reach through the door of her cat condo to wave at everyone who visits the cat room. She wants all the pets and affection, and will quickly roll over when you give her head scratches. Chloe is such a friendly girl, and she can`t wait to find the loving home that she deserves.

Story
Storm is a 3 year-old Domestic Shorthair mix who weighs 7 lbs. She was surrendered to CHA when her owner could no longer care for her. Storm is an inquisitive, adventurous girl who enjoys running around the cat room. She is very sweet and enjoys being pet, although she can sometimes become overstimulated. When overstimulated, she might swat or try to bite. Storm would likely be best in a home with more mature children who are better able to read her signals and who are old enough to understand how and when she prefers to be touched. If you`re looking for a loyal companion, Storm could be the girl for you!

Story
Bop is a 5 year-old Domestic Shorthair mix who weighs 8 lbs. She arrived at CHA when her owner could no longer care for her. In her previous home, she lived with dogs, children, and other cats. Bop is an independent, friendly girl who loves to look out the window. She spends her days roaming around the cat room, playing with toys, and taking naps in her favorite fuzzy cat bed. Although her favorite thing to do is meet the new people that come to visit her. She can`t wait to go home with someone!

Adopting a American Curl

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an American Curl - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

It typically costs $50 to $150 to adopt an American Curl kitten or adult from a shelter or rescue organization. Adoption fees often cover an initial exam, parasite preventatives, microchipping, spay/neuter, and vaccines. Conversely, buying an American Curl from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive and can cost $1,200 to $3,000.

The easiest way to adopt an American Curl is through searching shelters and cat-specific rescues. Since this breed is rare, you may need to expand your search outside of your local region. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which can show you all adoptable American Curls within your area or nationwide.

American Curl fun facts

Fun Facts:

The first ever American Curl's name was "Shulamith," which is Hebrew for "black but comely."

Because this is a relatively new breed, it will take a few more decades before the type is consistent in shape, hair type, and personality.

This breed retains its kitten-like energy and sensibilities well into adulthood, thus earning it the moniker the "Peter Pan of cats."
