American Shorthair kittens & cats in Laurel, Maryland

DISCLOSURE: The adoptable pets in our program are still in the care and custody of owners who wish to re-home their pet. Owners have enlisted Rescue Well to provide marketing and screening of applicants as a service, free of charge. All fees and adoption conditions are determined by the owner. We advise that adopters do not send payment or deposits for pets prior to adopting.  ***** Maggie is 10yo, weighs 7lbs, is spayed, is up to date on her vaccines, is microchipped, and is FeLV/FIV negative, as her veterinary records will substantiate.  Maggie's guardian adds:  "She dislikes dogs, scared of new people in the home, gets nervous when you touch her unexpectedly, and does not like to be picked up or held.  During car rides, she often meows and cries, but is okay in a crate in the car." Maggie's guardian explains why she has made the difficult decision to rehome her:  "She does not do well with other pets and has started peeing outside her litter box.  We have tried everything to prevent her from peeing outside the litter box, but no changes.  We think she will do better as an only pet in a calm environment." Maggie's guardian states the following regarding children:  Maggie doesn't live with children, so her guardian doesn't recommend her living with children, stating "She is very timid and usually hides when new people come to the house.  She has never interacted with anyone below the age of 18". Maggie's guardian states the following regarding dogs:  Maggie lives with a dog, but her guardian doesn't recommend her living with dogs, stating "She is very fearful and wants her space.  Anytime our dog gets near her she will hiss to try to get him away from her including chasing him, growling, and even scratching if he gets too close.  When he is not in her bubble, they get along fine". Maggie's guardian states the following regarding cats:  Maggie lives with a cat, but her guardian doesn't recommend her living with cats, stating "She does well with our other cat; they play together, sleep together, eat together, etc.  But, she did not take to him for almost a year and having a new animal in the house is what started her peeing outside the litter box.  So while they get along wonderfully now, the behavioral peeing has not stopped". Maggie's guardian describes her as: Couch potato Quiet Playful Friendly Shy Likes to be touched Affectionate Independent Nervous House-Trained Likes men Likes women Maggie's guardian describes her ideal future home: "The best home for Maggie would be with an older couple or a single person who is home often and is fine with only having one cat.  This person is willing to play with her every day (she loves strings, like soft measuring tapes, as toys) and will give her love and treats often, as she is very affectionate, but timid.  They are experienced with cats and have a good routine that they can stick to most days, if not every day."

Mini is a part of a litter of three kittens born outside and abandoned by their mom. I'm guessing they were born mid-September 2023. I've been feeding them but I will be moving away. I took them all in in April to try to find homes for them before I move out. She's a bit skittish and took a couple of days to adjust to being inside but she is very friendly and potty trained. I think she may be pregnant, however. I will be moving early June and would really like for her to find a good home.

Chicken is a part of a litter of three kittens born outside and abandoned by their mom. I'm guessing they were born mid-September 2023. I've been feeding them but I will be moving away. I took them all indoors in April to try to find homes for them before I move out. She's a quiet and loving cat who when petted and rubbed will be responded with loud purring, and maybe a soft meow. She just had 5 kittens, born April 23rd, 2024. She has taken well to motherhood and is a caring mom to her babies. I will be moving early June and would really like for them to find a good home.

Hi, my name is Rocky II. My mom named me that because she had a cat years ago, of course named Rocky, whom she loved dearly & felt the name suited me too. She adopted me right before the pandemic and took care of me while I entertained her while she was “locked down” in her senior apartment. She also realized that I’m deaf and had to get used to letting me know she was there to keep from scaring me all the time. Sometimes I meow pretty loud but as soon as you look at me I’ll meow very sweetly. I think sometimes I just do it because I don’t know how loud I actually am. Mom passed away & I’ve been living w/her daughter for the last 6 months but I just can’t handle her dogs and I really need a more 1 on 1 relationship. I love to get brushed & will purr & rub on you as long as you want me to. I can also take a hint & am happy w/my alone time as well. I’m pretty chill, don’t mess up the furniture, don’t pee outside my box. I’m a pretty decent guy & would love a new comfortable home.

Hi! I’m Major, I was adopted from a small shelter a little over 12 years ago. I am a very calm, easygoing, and sweet kitty who likes to lay around and nap all day. My favorite things are cat nip and wet cat food. Occasionally I like to run around at night for a little exercise. I love to cuddle and share kisses. I am very smart and will greet you whenever you come home. I am not neutered. I cry when I urinate in my litter box sometimes. I have ongoing urination issues so I sometimes urinate outside of the litter box. I have very long nails that need to be cut and a few big mats in my fur from my owner not taking care of me. My 1-year rabies shot recently expired. My owner is very busy and cannot afford me anymore.
