Story
I adopted Cher after her previous owner, a good friend of mine, suddenly passed away some years ago. I was 16 at the time and had no clue that I would one day need to rehome her. Her birthday is March 8th, and she was found under a truck when she was a kitten. I love Cher immensely, so it has taken me a long time to accept that I can’t give her the life she deserves anymore. She has been diagnosed with FIC, feline idiopathic cystitis, and tends to pee outside the litterbox when she is stressed. Because of this, I keep her on a pure canned salmon diet, which is pretty inexpensive. She needs lots of love to keep her stress down.

These cats are in Alexandria, Virginia too!

Story
Meet Buddy! She's a friendly indoor/outdoor cat looking for her end game. She embodies cat qualities: loyal, affectionate, loving, slow blinks and chasing toys. She is looking to be your only cat. She's a domestic medium hair tabby with a soft, shiny coat, big green eyes and a fluffy tail. Her shots and health care is up to date, records provided. She's approx 9 yrs old and weighs 10 pounds. She has lived outside where dogs chase her and there are cars close by. Rescuing her would take her out of danger. She has an eartip because she was spayed, microchipped and vaccinated initially as an outdoor community cat. What's she's looking for in an adopter: treats! Playtime with toys, having a catio / safe access to the outside, affection, brushing her, a warm home and your patience. To be considered as a potential adopter, complete an adoption application. Completing the application does not guarantee it will be approved. We are an all volunteer group and unfortunately are unable to answer every phone call, adoption inquiry, or application.
