Story
Little Snickers is a total cuddlebug. He`s a grey and white neutered male tabby and was born September 2023. He likes to play and loves his toys. Is is a little nervous around other cats so we think he would do best in a home with no other cats. He loves attention and is a super happy boy when he is given love. Come and meet Snickers and enjoy every minute spent with him.

Story
Did you wonder where your Mystery Valentine was a couple of weeks ago?Look no more … and he is perfect !He doesn’t care what you look like when you roll out of bed.He doesn’t care if you don’t use make-up.He doesn’t even care if you skip a shower and are a little more odiferous!His isn’t vain and he doesn’t hog the mirror.He isn’t a selfie-king…He is easy on the electric bills and is fine with the lights off…AND he doesn’t care if you toot like the Little Engine That Could or if your toothbrush is dry for more than 24 hours.Does a guy like this really exist?HE DOES!His name is VALENTINE. But he could just as easily have been named Angel or Sweetheart because he is ALL THAT! Although legend has it that St. Valentine cured his jailer’s daughter, and future wife,of blindness, this Valentine not only has being a saint of sorts in common with Saint Valentine, BUT he, like the jailer’s daughter, is also blind.Yes, this Valentine is a 7 year old neutered stray blind male tabby who managed against all odds to survive. He was born with a genetic malformation of his eyes called microphthalmia and it is possible that he has been blind since he was a kitten. In February, Valentine had a double enucleation to remove what never developed as eyeballs, but became infected. I promise you, some lucky someone will lose their heart to him and with Cupid’s blessing, might triple Valentine’s life span should he live to a ripe old age of 21.Who will it be? Are you Valentine’s Valentine?If you’d like to meet our available pets, please check the “shelter information” box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton).
