American Shorthair kittens & cats in Alexandria, Virginia

Bug is literally great he’s really playful and I love him but I just can’t look after a cat right now. He is really cute and loves to play and cuddle too if you catch him at the right time and. He likes neck and head scratches so please give him tons I’m gonna miss him.

Kassie is your classical spunky orange cat. She’s very vocal and attentive to her owner. Kassie has always been with her sister Kallie. They are needing to be rehomed due to divorce.

Kallie is a major sweetheart and loves to be near her owner. She is a little skittish. She has always been with her sister Kassie who is smaller than her.

Leyla's Personality Beauty and brains, sweet and sassy. This little charmer, whose nickname is "Miss Bean," will win you over in no time. Although not a lap cat (so far!), she's always close by laying next to you. Just provide a nice, soft fleece blanket. Leyla is super friendly and enjoys being brushed. She will reward you with soft purrs and gentle head butts. Leyla is becoming more playful each day in her new foster home after all of her six kittens have been adopted. She is learning to be a kitten again after giving being a mom at just 9 months of age. Leyla goes nuts over a catnip-filled pillow. She showed off her first "zoomies" around the house the other day. And she chases just about anything that moves. Miss Bean won't wake you up for breakfast, but waits until you pet her while she stands on your chest, giving you the days loudest purr. She loves to sleep on a soft blanket on the bed at night and occasionally chases your toes under the covers. Her favorite things are catnip toys, getting brushed and showing off her trick sitting on command for treats. If Leyla can’t find you, she lets out a little meow, and comes running when you call. She loves people, and is not shy at all. She is a perfect little companion. What Type of Home Leyla Needs This sweet, sassy girl needs a home where people are around for her to hang out with. She is not demanding, but likes to be near people. Leyla likes to be in charge of her territory and needs to be the only pet - no other cats or dogs. When Leyla is unsettled or anxious about new things, she can get a little over-stimulated and nip your hands - so no young children now or in the future. An older, cat-savvy child who has lived with cats before might be ok (over about 12 years). This behavior has subsided in her foster home now that she is settled in. Where Leyla Came From Leyla was rescued from outdoors by a kind man who found her abandoned in a park just one week before giving birth to six healthy kittens (all adopted). She was such a sweet, nurturing mama. Now its time for Leyla to have a home of her own.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.

Rehoming Two Very Affectionate Cats I am faced with the difficult decision of finding a new home for my two sweetheart cats. They are two years old and from the same litter. Healthy, neutered, and up-to-date on vaccines. Due to financial circumstances, I am moving in with my family, where there is a dog that is aggressive towards cats. To ensure their safety and well-being, I am seeking a kind, safe, and loving home where they can continue to thrive together. Please see the attached photos. If you are interested in providing a forever home for Moose and Bao, or if you know of someone who might be, please reach out to me at the email provided. Your kindness and assistance in spreading the word are greatly appreciated. Gratefully, Isabel

Leo is the sweetest little boy, abandoned by his mother in our garden. He is bonded with his sister CoCo Junior. He is about 3 months old and needs a home with an experienced adopter who can get him his vaccines and train him. He is willing to learn and loves our family. We have 3 indoor cats so we can’t take Leo and his sister in.

Morty is a sweet, small, older cat who came to us as a rescue off the streets. He loves head scratches, sitting in laps, and napping most of the day. We hoped he'd make a great friend for our other cat, but he does not like the presence of other cats, and would prefer a solo-cat home. He is microchipped; we've attempted contact of the owner on file with no luck. We assume Morty was abandoned and had a rough time as a street cat due to his size and indoor cat upbringing. Despite that time his life, Morty is very affectionate to every human he has met! If you're looking for a low-maintenance cat who will snuggle with you, Morty is your guy. He enjoys some play, minimally scratches horizontally (particularly carpet/rugs), and is pretty quiet unless he is hungry. He's got a unique, squeaky meow that only comes out when he's anxious about his food. We hope to find Morty the home he deserves: as the much cherished only cat in a loving household.

Total sweetie pie who loves to curl up at night and sit in any box or bag that’s lying around. Would be best on her own without other pets. This is the reason she needs a new home. We have both a dog and another cat, and she’s become too anxious sharing the space. She finds solace in being near humans especially at night time when she can find someone to sleep next to.

Miles is a chonky cuddler who loves to eat and play! I adopted him over three years ago from a family in Washington state. He is about 11 years old. Vet has told me he is in good health and I have not noticed anything wrong physically. I am working all the time and about to move again, and I don’t want to put him through all that. I would rather him be with a family that will spend time playing with him. He would do best in a home with no dogs unless they are well behaved and chill. He can get used to dogs it just takes a long time. I do not know his behavior around other cats. Overall Miles is extremely chill, but when he is hungry or wants you to pick him up he will definitely let you know.
