My story

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

Kate and Marah are a bonded mother and daughter pair! Named after the Netflix show Firefly Lane, Kate and her babies were trapped in Sandbridge. The boys were friendly and were adopted quickly. Kate and Marah were more on the skittish side, and it has taken a while to get them to trust humans. They don’t like being held, and they will not be the cuddle on the couch cats for you anytime soon. They need someone with patience who will give them time to adapt to their new home. We felt it was necessary to keep this mom and daughter duo off the streets and find them a loving forever home together!

Kate is definitely the protector of her daughter! Marah cuddles inside of the cat hiding tube with her mom, who makes her feel safe. Marah enjoys playing with wand toys. They both love watching cat TV, and their foster mom loves watching them watch TV! When it’s nap time, you can find them together in the cat tree hiding hole. Currently, they are eating Fancy Feast gravy lovers and Purina One adult dry food. They get along fine with cats and kids.

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!

Adoption application

We also have adoptable adults at Pembroke PetSmart, 4421 Virginia Beach Blvd in Virginia Beach.

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!

We also appreciate donations! Find our most needed items
