My story

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

Meet Annie - The Playful and Sweet Brown Tabby Looking for a Loving Home! Annie invites you into her world with a gentle soul and a playful spirit. Originally part of a feral cat colony and set to be euthanized by another organization, Annie is not just a cat; she's a sweet soul yearning for a patient and an understanding companion.

Personality: Annie's personality is a delightful blend of playfulness and occasional calmness. Always energetic, she brings a vivacious energy to her surroundings. Having spent time in a feral cat colony, she carries a touch of shyness and occasional fearfulness, making her journey towards trust all the more special.

Social Interaction: Annie is a social butterfly among her feline friends, getting along with cats seamlessly. She cautiously avoids or ignores dogs, preferring the company of her fellow kitties. Her curiosity often leads her to explore her surroundings, balancing moments of playfulness and quiet observation.

Play Preferences: Chasing and pouncing toys occasionally capture Annie's interest, reflecting her playful nature. Lounging around and watching the world outside from a cozy spot are among her favored pastimes, creating a harmonious balance of activity and relaxation.

Interaction with People: Reserved but approachable, Annie forms connections with older children and adults. Selective in her interactions with strangers, she takes her time to build trust. While she appreciates being petted, she is not comfortable being held, preferring her feet on the ground.

Relationship with Other Cats: Annie shares a special friendship with one of the older kitties in her foster home. Both food-motivated, they are peas in a pod, showcasing Annie's capacity for forming close and endearing connections.

Adoption Considerations: Annie is an ideal companion for a patient individual or family willing to provide a calm and understanding environment and who have the time to continue working on her socialization skills. Her love for being petted and her sweet nature make her an endearing addition to a loving home. If you are an experienced cat parent ready to welcome a sweet and playful tabby who thrives on companionship, Annie is eager to share her heart with you.

In Summary: Annie is not just a cat; she's a sweet and playful soul ready to bring joy to her forever home. If you're ready for a heartwarming journey of trust and companionship, come meet Annie and let the bond of a lifetime begin!

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Adoption events are held regularly in the community at Petco Winchester VA every other Saturday. Additional events are held at area festivals, wineries, breweries, and parks. Approved adopters can schedule a private meet and greet with their chosen pet.
