Story
Liam is a young, handsome, grey British Shorthair we are thrilled to have in our rescue. This sweet, old soul will be your best friend. He is a young yet mellow cat that enjoys watching the goings on of the household. He’s been a nice companion for the other young foster kitty, Jonah, in the house. He puts up with Jonah’s crazy antics. Liam will often come to you with a gentle meow or lay a paw on you to indicate he’d like some attention but he is by no means a needy cat. He will also find a place to sit and watch quietly if you are busy. Lovely, silky gray fur with a bit of an undercoat so brushing is helpful. We would love to see Liam in a home with another cat or dog but would consider as a solo in the right home. Fostered in Fairfax City

Story
Lily is a young cat who gets along well with her fellow foster cat Liam. She is an active and curious kitty with a sweet meow and a wiggly tail. She would do well in a household with a family and other pets. She is used to being around people most of the day. Lily loves to play with her little leopard mouse and chase after her wand toys - an then take a nice nap in the afternoon sun. If you would like two kitties, Liam and Lily would be a great addition to your household. Fostered in Fairfax, VA.

Story
Ashley is a wonderful young boy rescued off the cold streets. We are thrilled he is with our rescue group so we can find him a forever home. He definitely has British Short Hair breeding based on his round little head and body shape. Ashley is the nicest young boy. He is active and very playful. He loves attention and gets along well with his foster family and with other cats. We would like to see Ashley be adopted to a home with another playful cat because he needs a playmate. He has not been tested with dogs or children but he should be fine based on his personality. Fostered in Fairfax, VA.

Story
We rarely see a silver British Shorthair and Petra is fabulous. Petra was abandoned in Kuwait and is best as an only cat. She will coexist with another cat but will likely not bond. Petra is very loving but will take time to trust again. Petra is estimated to be about 4 years old. Our Kuwait kitties cost more because of their transport. * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate and distemper series), treated for parasites, and have microchips. Tiny kittens go in pairs unless there's a companion animal already in the household. Our adoption fees are low. Most are $150 although some very desirable kitties may be more. For a pair, we reduce the adoption fee slightly.February 23, 2025, 11:22 am

Story
Sweet Tara is a British Shorthair from Kuwait. She is a beautiful, one year old, with classic tabby markings (gold swirls). She is loving and outgoing and gets along well with other kitties. Our Kuwait kitties are higher priced because of their pedigree and cost of transportation. * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate and distemper series), treated for parasites, and have microchips.

Story
I found Noktis four or five years ago while walking my newly acquired large dog with separation anxiety in Union City, CA. My dog lunged at Noktis' mother and she ran away, leaving Noktis behind. He was the only kitten with her and was very easy to pick up. I realized he was in a terrible condition. Noktis' eyes were glued shut by some sort of infection. He was small enough to fit in the inner pocket of my jacket, so I took him home to a room I rented in the same city. I woke up my then-boyfriend and he helped gently dab away the run-off so that the little kitten's eyes opened the tiniest bit. I couldn't keep him because I already owned another adult female cat along with my large dog. I was ready to give Noktis away but X grew attached and wanted to keep him. Noktis' has a very high pitched meow. He's a wild kitty who growls as he eats his food. He loves his brother Cloud very much! He comes together with Cloud or not at all.

Story
I would like to rehome my black kitty Jasper because I realized recently that I unfortunately have allergies to cats. He’s the sweetest kitty and loves to lounge around. He loves to eat gravies, bird watch and sleep in bed with you sometimes. All he needs is a sweet and gentle owner.

Story
Sweet but Shy Cat Looking for a New Home Meet Yoda, an 8-year-old cat with a quiet, reserved personality. While she may seem standoffish at first, she can be incredibly sweet once she warms up to you. She has been spayed and front declawed (done by a previous family member) and is up to date on her rabies vaccine (next due November 2025). Yoda would do best in a home without young children, as she hasn’t adjusted well to our 7-month-old. She prefers a calm environment and would thrive with a patient owner who understands her skeptical nature. We’re including everything she’ll need: ✔️ Litter box & litter ✔️ Cat tree ✔️ Food ✔️ Flea & tick medication (if you plan to let her explore outside) Due to an upcoming move for work, we’re hoping to find her a loving home as soon as possible. If you think you’d be a good match for Yoda, please reach out!
