My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Pekoe and Kombucha!! These one year old brothers are super sweet, gentle-natured, and as unique as their tea-inspired names! They’re ready to find their furever home together….could it be with you??

Pekoe is adorable with his silky, medium-length tuxedo coat, fluffy white “neckerchief” and zig-zaggy tail! He greets anyone who comes to visit by sitting and staring with his round-as-saucers eyes until he gets a proper hello, AKA a pet and even a belly rub, then he’s off on an adventure of any kind. Pekoe is always up for high speed games of pounce and chase or a rassle session with his bestie brother, Kombucha. But if Buchy is busy or napping, that’s ok because any toy will do, or even just gazing at the sights and activity out the window. Pekoe is very good at self-entertaining!

Kombucha is the more laid-back of this bonded pair. This sleek, black-and-white cow-boy with incredibly soulful eyes loves people! In fact, he often prefers to cuddle up with you (or on you) and watch Pekoe look for and find his own entertainment! But don’t worry, when the mood is right, Buchy parkours off the walls as well as his sibling!! His tail is his most unique feature, it is straight for 1/2 the length, then knotted, with the end dangling like a ponytail….so cute!!

These two boys love their Fancy Feast chicken gravy lovers wet food! Pekoe had some stomach sensitivities which have since resolved, so it would be best to stay with their current diet. Their Fancy Feast food is a great choice because it’s widely available online, at pet stores, and even most grocery stores :). They also eat some Purina Beyond Grain-Free Chicken & Egg dry food, but only a small amount, so it’s important for them to continue mainly with wet food. Churus are their treats of choice, but watch out! They’re going to compete for the best spot in your lap to get in the most licks! It’s a cat attack and the competition is ON!! Hope you brought two (or more) Churus to share!! YUM!!

Pekoe LOVES to play in the crinkle tunnel while Kombucha’s favorite toy is the automated spinning butterfly toy and hide-n-seek feather!! They also like the ball track, jingle balls, rattle mice, poms, and of course SPRINGS!! And they’re great at using scratching posts and cardboard scratchers.🙂 A nice cat tree is a favorite spot to climb and hide, and watching out the window is their preferred sleepytime activity.

Pekoe and Kombucha have always been playmates. Even as tiny kittens in a litter of six, these two rassled each other before they could even walk! 🤣Needless to say they are a bonded pair, and these sweet boys need to be adopted together.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have an adoption application to learn a bit about the home our cats will be going to and the family's motivation for adoption and expectations about pet ownership. We also have an adoption contract, which includes a no declawing and indoor-only clause along with a vet promissory note that ensures you will continue with the medical care and spay/neuter if needed.

We DO NOT do any out of state adoptions except on the NC border on a case-by-case basis.

We require a donation of $120 for adoption of unaltered kittens with a PTV Contract. All kittens receive vaccine series and wormings as well as medical treatment as needed. The adopter is responsible for obtaining their rabies vaccine and spay/neuter if the kitten is not of age at the time of adoption. We can provide resources for low cost clinics that offer these services.

We ask a donation of $25 to adopt Career/barn cats.

We require a donation of at least $140 for adoption of Spayed/neutered cat.

Bonded pairs adoption donation is $200.

Sometimes we require rental checks or home inspections. We always have a Meet n Greet to make sure everyone gets along. We encourage bringing the whole family!

More about this rescue

Our mission is to improve the lives of displaced cats and reduce feral cat population in Hampton Roads by socializing outdoor-born and feral kittens for adoption into loving forever homes. We are a VDACS registered 501c3 nonprofit, founded in 2014 with over 60 foster homes.

Our heart is in TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return of ferals), where cats are fixed, vaccinated, ear tipped, and allowed to live out their lives without reproducing. We are advocates for advancing legal and social acceptance of TNR in Hampton Roads. Our unique feral kitten socialization program has a 90% success rate in socializing feral-born kittens to become loving, in-home pets.

We are always seeking fosters, volunteers, transporters, and trappers to join our team!
