My story

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

Meet Tulip, the dignified 8-year-old feline with a heart as big as her size! This senior lady may take some time to settle into new environments but once past that initial adjustment period a sweet and loving companion is awaiting to bloom!

Tulip's journey to trust isn't instant, but with patience and understanding, she will blossom into a loyal and affectionate companion. Initially wary of treats and hesitant to interact, Tulip has since discovered the joy of playtime and cuddles! She's a playful soul, always eager to chase strings, feathers, or anything else she can get her paws on. And when it's cuddle time, she's right there, ready to bask in your affection. She comes running right on over when her name is called in anticipation of all the love she can get!

Though she still enjoys her quiet time under the bed, Tulip has learned that she's safe and loved. With each passing day, she grows more confident and comfortable, showing her true sweet nature to those she trusts.

Tulip may be a bit shy at first, but once she warms up to you, she's all about the love and attention. She'll purr contentedly as you stroke her soft fur, and she'll chirp happily to let you know she's enjoying your company.

If you're seeking a furry friend who appreciates the finer things in life - like Churu treats and cozy cuddle sessions - then Tulip is the perfect match for you. Open your heart and home to this lovely lady, and you'll be rewarded with endless love and companionship.

Tulip is apart of our Love Lasts Forever program so her adoption fees will be waived!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

BARCS takes in new animals in need of a loving home every day. The pictures above only represent a portion of the animals that are available for adoption at any given time. Some animals get adopted immediately and their photos never make it onto our website—which is wonderful! If you don’t see what you are looking for, please visit our shelter to meet your perfect match today! Adoption fees are $75; however, we offer several adoption packages listed here. Our adoption hours are Monday-Friday from 2-6 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 11 a.m.-4 p.m.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Step 1: Check out the adoptable cats, dogs and small companion animals listed on our website. Animals with a blue “I’m in Foster” banner are not currently in our shelter. Check www.barcs.org for our adoption process for animals in foster homes.

Step 2: Visit our shelter during adoption hours (Monday-Friday 2-6 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday 11 a.m.-4 p.m.). When you arrive, you will first be asked to fill out our Shelter Adoption Application with your information. You may also pre-fill our Shelter Adoption Application ahead of time online to save time when you are at the shelter. Your application will be processed after you meet the animal.

Step 3: Tour our adoption rooms and write down the names of animals that you would like to meet. A volunteer or staff member will help you meet your chosen animals to make a match!

Step 4: When you have selected the right animal for you, our Adoptions Team will run your Adoption Application for approval. Once your application is approved, you will participate in an adoption class where you will learn all of the details about your new adopted family member, including their known history and medical records.

What else to expect: Animals who are already spayed/neutered and past their stray hold (if applicable) can often go home with you the same day. Pick-up arrangements for unaltered animals and/or animals still on a stray hold will be made during your adoption class.

More about this shelter

BARCS is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization operating Maryland’s largest animal shelter and pet adoption center. We are an open admission shelter, granting refuge to every abandoned, neglected, abused, lost or surrendered animal that comes through our door. A staggering 30 or more animals are surrendered to BARCS every day. No matter what the circumstance, we do not turn away any animal in need of shelter, food, medical care and a loving touch. Yearly, this equates to more than 12,000 dogs, cats, kittens, puppies, and even wildlife and exotic animals that need care and placement.
