Siamese kittens & cats in Fredericksburg, Virginia

We first met Frieda while working on an out-of-control residential colony. She had been having litters of kittens for a couple of years before we got there and we managed to save her last litter, Peter, Pan, and Wendy. Frieda is extremely gentle, sweet, and loving. We suspect she will stay small. Although we have only had her for a couple of weeks, we can see that her temperament is extremely tolerant. Frieda has been through a lot and we are going to make sure that she gets the very best home and lives the rest of her life out in a joyful and comfortable environment. To schedule a meet-and-greet, call AdvoCats at 540-419-5335.

Luca is a 3-legged senior gentleman looking for his "retirement" home. He's a dashing and charming guy with beautiful blue eyes and a gentle soul. He spends his days snuggling on his bed next to his foster mom, or venturing around the house to explore. Luca requires monthly injections to treat the arthritis in his remaining back leg, but that doesn't stop him from playing around and having fun (check out the video!). All adoptions come with 30 days of free behavioral support from Petcademy. All cats available for adoption have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are current on all vaccinations. Please email cats@henricohumane.org for more information.

DOB: 6/23/24 Dante is a Siamese mix short hair. He is playful, affectionate, and very active and love to follow their foster mom around the house. After playing, he is more than happy to hop up on the coach to sleep next to you or in your lap. Dante came from a feral mom, and this was her first litter. He is petite for his age so he will most likely remain fairly small. If interested, please contact westendcatrescue.safe@gmail.com. You will find an application on westendcatrescue.org.

This sweet girl is still unsure how she landed at the cat castle and she will need some time to adjust. We have been told she was friendly but timid in her original home, so we believe she would do best in a quiet home as an only pet or with a friendly feline friend.=========================About Our Rescue Group: The St. Mary's Animal Welfare League is a nonprofit, rescue organization that specializes in the rescue, care and placement of abused, neglected and homeless companion animals. Our animals are vaccinated, microchipped, spayed or neutered and receive medical treatment before being placed in carefully selected homes. We strive to educate the community in areas of humane education and responsible pet ownership as well as helping to control the pet overpopulation in our area by promoting the spaying and neutering of all companion animals. ===Come Meet Our Pets: Come meet our cats every Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. located at Petco in California Maryland.We also have a cat facility in Callaway. The Cat Castle Rescue Center is located in the Callaway Village Shopping Center and is open every Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm. Please contact info@smawl.org for appointments to meet our dogs.===Our Adoption Process: It is the St. Mary’s Animal Welfare League’s policy to attempt to place each of our rescued animals in a home that is well- suited to their needs. Once an animal is placed from our rescue, the animal cannot be sold, given away or otherwise transferred. If the adopter is, at any time, unable to keep or continue to maintain the animal for any reason, the animal must be returned to the St. Mary’s Animal Welfare League. We work hard at matching our animals to adopters, so they may end their search for a loving, permanent home. Temperament, special needs and personality are all factors in our placements. ===Step #1 The Adoption Application The initial step in our adoption process is the Adoption Application. This can either be done online or in person. The Adoption form must be filled out completely including vet references and two personal non-family references. Your application will be reviewed and your references will be contacted. We contact your veterinarian to ensure that your current or recently deceased pets were properly taken care of---this means being current on all vaccinations and spayed or neutered. In order to speed up the process, please contact your veterinarian and let them know to expect our call. ===Step #2Personal Interview You will be interviewed by a SMAWL Board Member or Volunteer either through phone, email or in person. This is an opportunity to learn more specifics about you, your family, your pets and the type of pet you are looking for. At this time, we may suggest that you consider a different animal---one that we may feel might be more acceptable for your situation. If you are completing your application in person, this will most likely be done at that time of completion.===Step #3The Home Visit If all goes well with the application verification, we will schedule a home visit. A home visit is required to ensure that your home is everything you say it is on the Adoption Application. It needs to be a suitable safe environment for your new pet. All pets and family members should be home at this time.===Step #4Meeting Your Potential Adoptee Once the Application has been reviewed and all references checked, arrangements will be made for you to meet with the animal you wish to adopt, either through the foster parent or the animal’s Case Manager. As a courtesy to our foster families, we do not ask them to show their animals to individuals until we have completed the application approval process. If you have other animals, we recommend a neutral meeting place, such as PETCO or a local park to ensure the animals are compatible outside of their own territory.===Step #5Finalizing The Adoption Once the adoption has been approved, we will contact you to finalize the adoption. You will need to sign the contract and pay our adoption fee. (Young Dogs Under 1 =$300, Dogs over 1 = $250, Young Cats 2 years and under =$125, Older Cats over 2 years = $75) Foster to adopt over a two week period may be available on a case by case basis.Any applications received for adoptions from beyond St Mary's county line, will be subject to additional terms and conditions available on request.Please Remember: Our entire organization is staffed by volunteers. We have NO paid staff. Our volunteers must work your application around their business and personal lives. We do our best to respond to all inquiries within 2-3 days, and most of the time we are able to respond within 1 day. Please be patient and thank the volunteers you meet for their service to our community’s homeless pet population. ===We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties: We serve the Southern Maryland area.
