Bengal kittens & cats in Washington, District of Columbia

I got Sasha when she was a kitten in late 2020. I was in law school at the time, and I was home most of the time. School was online for the first year, and then the second two years I spent lots of time at home studying, etc., so Sasha was used to near constant companionship. After graduating and starting work, I am home less, and she is less happy. She needs more attention than I can realistically give her. She is very sweet and cuddly, and very vocal. She has a tendency (as most cats do) to act out for attention when she does not receive it. Nothing too serious--just some meowing or trying to go somewhere she knows she isn't allowed. However, when she has the proper attention and is not left alone for hours and hours on end, she is as sweet and content as can be. She is quite energetic. She likes to sleep at the foot of the bed or sometimes curled up in the crook of my arm or between my shoulder and neck. She may do well with a young couple--double the attention and love :)

Rori is a 4 yr old purebred marbled bengal. He is the sweetest cuddle bug, loves playtime (high jumps, climbing, and running), and watching the birds. We are regretfully looking to rehome him as our elderly disabled cat needs more attention and doesn’t like playful Rori (despite Rori thinking they’re best friends). We have had Rori since he was 7 months old and he is the sweetest boy who deserves a home where he can be the center of attention. He has not been around dogs or other cats besides his older (moody) brother, and he seems scared of children. Given his curious nature and where we live near busy roads, we keep him inside or only on the patio, but he loves sitting by the window watching everything around him. He has the biggest eyes, the SOFTEST fur, and most loving heart, and he loves being around his human as much as possible. We are looking for a home for him where he can get all the love and time he deserves. You won’t find a more cuddly or adventurous cat out there.

Flash came to us when his owner decided he needed someone to spend more time with him. We are wondering now if he isn't a Marble Bengal mix. He is highly active and an escape artist. He escaped our building and went up the tree with our bird feeders (first picture). He cannot be an outdoor cat but needs an enclosed patio, cat wheel, and/or tall climbers to keep him entertained. He is about 2 and is stunning. He gets along well with other cats and loves to be cuddled on his terms. If he doesn't like something he will growl to let you know but he's really quite gentle. Can you give him the right home with the enrichment he needs? * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), combo tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate), treated for parasites, and most have microchips. Tiny kittens go in pairs unless there's a companion animal already in the household. Our adoption fees are low. Most are $150 although some very desirable kitties may be slightly more. For a pair, we reduce the adoption fee slightly. September 15, 2024, 12:23 pm

Able is a big, independent boy who loves his food and enjoys being around people—though he does not demand constant attention. He’s playful and gets along well with other pets, but he’d also do great as the only pet in a home. Able is healthy, neutered, and up-to-date on all vaccinations. His ideal home would be with someone who works from home or doesn’t travel much, and he’s comfortable with children. He enjoys using his claws on furniture and other objects like many cats. This behavior is likely due to his instincts to mark territory, exercise, and keep his claws sharp. If you’re looking for a handsome, playful, and independent cat, Able might be the perfect addition to your family!

Nala is a sweet and gentle soul, a bit shy around new people, but once she warms up, she’s incredibly loving and enjoys snuggling. She’s best suited for a quiet, calm home—ideally with someone who’s around a lot, as she thrives on companionship. Nala is also healthy, spayed, and up-to-date on vaccinations. She’s not a fan of busy environments, so a home without young children would be ideal. Nala’s one challenge is that when she feels stressed, she may have accidents outside her litter box. This behavior is her way of signaling that she needs a little extra reassurance and a calm setting. For this reason, she wouldn’t do well in a bustling, noisy household, particularly one with young children.

Shamus is a sweet boy cat about 4 years old. Liter trained. He hides when he’s scared sometimes a little timid. I have two young boys who play with him and he’s NEVER been aggressive. I need to rehome him because we moved from to Maryland to stay in my dad‘s home and I have two cats. The other cat needs a home too however, he has more medical issues and will be harder to rehome. I just have too many things to take care of as a single mom.

Hi - My name is Wolfie, and I am a new member of the AARF family. I am a beautiful senior male cat, but because I am brand new to these parts, there's not much more known about me or my personality just yet. If you check back a little later, I'm sure my foster parents will have a lot more information to post about me. If you have any questions, though, feel free to send an email to info@animalalliesrescue.org. or if you just think it's love at first sight, please fill out an adoption application at this site - http://www.animalalliesrescue.org and choose me - Wolfie!My adoption fee is $50.00, and AARF wants me to tell you that their adoption package covers all expenses needed to prepare kitties like me for our forever homes. By the time you meet us, we've already been spayed/neutered (if age appropriate) and microchipped. We've been checked by a veterinarian, and we're up to date on age-appropriate immunizations against rabies and FVRCP (feline viral rhinotracheitis, calicivirus and panleukopenia). Some of us have had extensive surgeries, dental work, or other necessary procedures. AARF is committed to getting all of us entirely ready for a happy, healthy, love-filled life!
