Story
Jonah is a beautiful, young energetic kitten with British Shorthair heritage in him. You can tell he is British Shorthair by his darling round little head. People who have met British Shorthairs just love them. Jonah is young and still learning the ways to behave in a household, having plenty of toys to play with and energy to play would all be great attributes for his new family. He is being fostered with Liam and they snuggle and play together. He’s a good napper, voracious eater and loves to play with his sprocket toy. He is a mackerel tabby with the M on his forehead and very distinctive stripping on his body. Because of his active nature we would like to see Jonah go to a busy household with another cat or dog. Older children should be fine. Fostered in Fairfax, VA

Story
Liam is a young, handsome, grey British Shorthair we are thrilled to have in our rescue. This sweet, old soul will be your best friend. He is a young yet mellow cat that enjoys watching the goings on of the household. He’s been a nice companion for the other young foster kitty, Jonah, in the house. He puts up with Jonah’s crazy antics. Liam will often come to you with a gentle meow or lay a paw on you to indicate he’d like some attention but he is by no means a needy cat. He will also find a place to sit and watch quietly if you are busy. Lovely, silky gray fur with a bit of an undercoat so brushing is helpful. We would love to see Liam in a home with another cat or dog but would consider as a solo in the right home. Fostered in Fairfax City

Story
Isla is a lovely ginger colored British Shorthair. She is shy but every day gets a little bolder and more outgoing. Isla requires a quiet home with a patient adopter who will give her the time and support she needs to come out of her shell. Isla will also need to be adopted into a home with another friendly kitty to help give her confidence and companionship. This kitty is part of a large group that were rescued from poor conditions and have required vet care over and above the norm. The adoption fee is $250 per cat plus $250 tax-deductible donation per cat that will be used towards veterinary care for their group. If you are viewing on Petfinder and cannot see photos or would like to apply for this kitten, please visit our website www.frecklesfoundation.org ***Please note that the first step in the process is to complete our nonbinding application which does not commit you in any way, but allows us to help you to find a great match. Our application review process also includes a veterinary reference check. Vetting of current and past pets is very important to us, thus we will be speaking with the vet(s) listed on your application to ensure that your current and previous pet(s) are kept up to date on vaccines (including rabies), spayed or neutered, maintained on appropriate monthly preventatives (if applicable) and examined annually by your vet.*** Cats adopted through Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue must be indoor only and may not be declawed unless already declawed at the time of rescue.

Story
We rarely see a silver British Shorthair and Petra is fabulous. Petra was abandoned in Kuwait and is best as an only cat. She will coexist with another cat but will likely not bond. Petra is very loving but will take time to trust again. Petra is estimated to be about 4 years old. Our Kuwait kitties cost more because of their transport. * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate and distemper series), treated for parasites, and 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 more. For a pair, we reduce the adoption fee slightly.February 23, 2025, 11:22 am

Story
Sweet Tara is a British Shorthair from Kuwait. She is a beautiful, one year old, with classic tabby markings (gold swirls). She is loving and outgoing and gets along well with other kitties. Our Kuwait kitties are higher priced because of their pedigree and cost of transportation. * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate and distemper series), treated for parasites, and have microchips.
