Story

Male, 6 months, DLH Dawson is new to the rescue and we can't wait to find out more about them. If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application. If the animal has "HAS APPLICATION" listed, they are still available to receive additional applications but also may be in the process of being adopted soon. Apply for a CAT: https://www.citydogsrescuedc.org/adoptable-cats.html City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats. Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter for dogs six months and older. We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam before adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDCK. City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us. Cat specific vetting: Rabies, FVRCP. Cats are tested for FIV and FeLV, when age appropriate, but not when born to a FELV/FIV negative mother in foster care. Kittens have age-appropriate vetting to date, which includes deworming, microchip, and the first FVRCP vaccine. Kittens born in care to a negative mother will not receive a FIV/FeLV test. An adopter will need to agree to cover costs of spay/neuter when he/she is age-appropriate (usually 16-20 weeks) and will need to continue his/her kitten vaccines (including rabies) as he/she grows older. Kittens under 12 weeks of age must be adopted in pairs or to a home with friendly resident feline. They will not be considered as singles.

Not good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Atticus is a sweet, loving 6.5 year old boy. He is full of energy and loves to play, sunbathe and ask for scritches. He is an anxious boy and does not tolerate other cats. He has no health problems besides his tendency toward anxiety, and would require being the only pet in the home. He would likely do best with a single person or couple with no kids, that travels infrequently. He is such a good boy with so much love to give for those who earn his trust.

* Meow! I`m available for adoption at 71 Oglethorpe St NW. Come meet me daily from 12pm-7pm.Meet senior sweetheart, Caurie. Her owner surrendered her when she could not care for her.

(We totally get that, Caurie -- way to set your boundaries!) She would appreciate a home on the quite side and will need time to settle in. She can be a bit anxious in new situations but comes out of her shell nicely. This lovely lady is going to be great companion for someone who enjoys relaxing at home and telling Caurie how perfect she is on a daily basis. Could it be you?

*Meow! I am available for adoption at 71 Oglethorpe St NW. Come meet me daily from 12 - 7 PM.Tycoon is looking for a fresh start. Can you relate? Sometimes we all need one of those. This handsome young tabby was surrendered with three other kitties when his owner could no longer care for them. Tycoon is shy but sweet and we know he will blossom in a loving, patient home. Afterall, the shelter can be overwhelming for some kitties, especially when they come in from a home. Tycoon is young and will benefit from daily playtime and enrichment. He is a big fan of wet food and with a bit of patience and time, he is going to fill your home with so much love and laughter. If you can give Tycoon the time to build his confidence and settle in, please stop by and meet him today.

Story

Meet Nala, a sweet girl and her five kittens were found by a good Samaritan and turned over to Critter Cavalry to foster and find great homes. Life on the streets can be hard for a cat, especially a first time mother with five kittens. She is a trooper and kept them safe, and healthy even after weaning them. The evidence of her struggles shows in a small scar on her nose. Nala may have been living on the street but that did not affect her sweet disposition. She definitely enjoys a good scratch behind the ear and is friendly with all humans she has been in contact with. She is approximately 8-9 months old and currently weighs 7 pounds which is only 3 pounds more than her kittens. She is learning all about 'the good life' and appreciating the fact that the food is coming regularly. She is not quite a cuddler but has only been off the streets for a couple weeks. Given time, she may grow to love the lap. Nala is a beautiful cat with unusual markings and can we talk about those eyes!!!! She has not been exposed to adult cats or dogs while in foster care but should adjust if given time. If you were interested in this beauty please email us at ccrnewengland@gmail.com. Please let us know where you live, city and state. We transport outside of Tennessee as well as adopting within our state where our fosters are being cared for Our vetting is extensive: Spay, rabies, FIV vaccine, FIV tested and negative, fecal and dewormings and a Drontal and microchipped. PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.
