My story

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


Meet Maddie, the charming male cat with a heart full of love. Maddie's journey brought him to BARCS after his owner passed away, but his sweet nature and friendly personality remain as bright as ever.

Described as sweet, personable, and oh-so-friendly, Maddie is the kind of cat who lights up the room with his presence. He adores attention and affection, reveling in every pet and loving gesture. Plus, he's a sucker for his name being called out loud - it's music to his ears!

Maddie's list of favorites includes treats, canned food, and catnip - the way to his heart is definitely through his stomach! But just like any sophisticated feline, he's not a fan of loud noises or yelling; he prefers a peaceful environment where he can relax and enjoy the finer things in life.

Despite being FIV+, Maddie can be adopted into homes with or without other cats. With proper care and guidance from a vet, cats with FIV can live happy and healthy lives.

With Maddie by your side, every day is sure to be filled with purrs, snuggles, and endless happiness.

Maddie is part of our Love Lasts Forever program where his adoption fees are waived! If you are interested in meeting Maddie, come visit him at BARCS today!

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.
