Story
Certainly! Here's an improved version: --- We are seeking a new home for our 4-year-old British Shorthair cat. She is not getting along well with other cats in our household and can become aggressive when nervous, especially if approached by people or other cats. Additionally, we are preparing for a long-distance move, and she gets extremely stressed during flights. She would do best in a home where she is the only pet and with someone who can provide her with a calm and understanding environment.

Story
September is a lovely, young silver part British Shorthair female cat. Her coat has black swirls throughout it making her even more beautiful. She was left to fend for herself at a feral cat colony. Thankfully a good Samaritan rescued her in September and asked us to help. September is the sweetest young girl. Her little round face lights up a room. September loves to be petted and doted on. Gets along beautifully with her fellow foster friends. Very playful. We would love to see her in a calm loving home. She would be fine with dogs and kids. Fostered in Fairfax, VA

Story
This is Bolt. He is a British Shorthair and Domestic Shorthair mix who came from Kuwait. Bolt has been diagnosed with a slight case of Cerebral Hypoplasia (CH). This results frequently when a pregnant momcat contracts a virus and her kittens are impacted while she is fighting the illness. Wobbly kitties can be some of the most loving and precious kitties that owners who have had one, look for them. Bolt's CH is slight and not expected to degrade as he ages. He is a little wobbly when he walks and sometimes his legs slip out from under him but is otherwise fine. He is also missing canine teeth but this does not impact his ability to eat dry or wet food. Can you open your heart to this wonderfully loving kitty? This sweet boy is awaiting for his forever home. * 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.November 6, 2024, 4:36 am

Story
Leyla's Personality Beauty and brains, sweet and just a little bit sassy. This little charmer, whose nickname is "Miss Bean," will win you over in no time. Leyla loves hanging out with her foster parents and is always close. She likes to lay next to you on the couch - just provide a nice, soft fleece blanket. Leyla is super friendly and loves, loves, loves being brushed. She enjoys a gentle routine and rewards you with soft purrs and gentle head butts. Leyla came into SPCA's care pregnant - delivering six healthy kittens two days later. Once her kittens were weaned and adopted, Leyla became more playful as she learned to be a kitten again! Leyla goes nuts over a catnip-filled pillow. She sometimes gets the zoomies and chases just about anything that moves. Miss Bean won't wake you up for breakfast in the morning, but waits patiently by your side until you pet her, then she starts the day with the loudest purr. She loves to sleep on a soft blanket on the bed at night and occasionally chases your toes under the covers. Her favorite things are catnip toys, getting brushed and showing off her trick sitting on command for treats. If Leyla can’t find you, she lets out a little meow, and comes running when you call. She loves people, and is not shy at all. She is a perfect little companion. What Type of Home Leyla Needs This sweet, sassy girl needs a home where people are around for her to hang out with. She is not demanding, but likes to be near people. Leyla likes to be in charge of her territory and needs to be the only pet - no other cats or dogs. When Leyla is unsettled or anxious about new things, she can get a little over-stimulated and nip your hands - so no young children now or in the future. An older, cat-savvy child who has lived with cats before might be ok (over about 12 years of age). This behavior has subsided in her foster home now that she has settled in. Where Leyla Came From Leyla was rescued from outdoors by a kind man who found her abandoned in a park shortly before giving birth to six healthy kittens (all adopted). She was such a sweet, nurturing mama. Now its time for Leyla to have a home of her own.PLEASE NOTE:  we only adopt to residents of the DC metro area, which includes DC, Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in MD, and Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and Loudoun Counties in VA.
