My personality

My story

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

Ever thought to yourself, I need a singing cow kitty in my life? Well……that once unattainable dream can become a reality with me, Gabe!  I’m an adorable, chonky-cheeked, 1 year old guy who was found outside.   I’m not sure how I got there because I’m incredibly friendly!  No one claimed me though, and my helpers suspect I might have been abandoned ☹  

Since I got rescued, I have been very vocal!  I love to talk about ALL kinds of things—the weather, music, the merits of wet vs dry food (and lemme go on record here to say, I’m solidly in the wet food camp!)….. we can chat about anything at all!  I’m just happy to finally have love and attention.  

As noted, I love wet food best, and I’m pretty interested in wand toys.  I’m looking for a family that can spend a lot of time with me, and give me allll the love and affection.  I love pets, and I will sing to you to let you know if I need a refill on them!   One of my special talents is my ability to hear a can opening from anywhere, no matter how deeply asleep I am.  I’m a big fan of cat trees and sunny windows….. and if you combine the two, it’s Gabe nirvana!  

I seem to get along well with other cats, as long as they’re friendly to me, and with proper introductions, of course!   I’m not sure if I’ve ever been around dogs or kids.  I think I’ll do best in a pretty chill home, with either no kids, or kids that are older, calm and can respect my kitty boundaries.  

So what are you waiting for?  Come see me, and let me serenade you!

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

Go meet their pets

Our pets are available for Meet and Greets at their various fosters homes or at our kittery at Pups n Stuff in Virginia Beach for fosters who do not show animals in their home. Appointments must be scheduled in advance!

At Pups n Stuff (where we're the Stuff), you can make an appointment to come see some of our adoptable kittens. It is at 4330 Holland Rd. in Virginia Beach.

Many of our adoptable adults are located at the Catnip Cat Cafe. The Cafe is in the Ghent section of Norfolk at 1611-B Colley Ave.

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
