American Shorthair kittens & cats in District of Columbia

Earl (3 years old) is looking for a new home, as we unfortunately cannot bring them during our next move. He is neutered and and up-to-date on all shots/vaccines (with complete paperwork for reference). He is calm, quiet, and very smart. Early is very loving, friendly, and would bring joy to you and your family. He is free to a good home, so if you’re interested in adopting Earl please contact me for more information.

**Looking for a Loving Home for My 7-Month-Old Kitten** I’m looking for a new home for my 7-month-old kitten. She has a playful personality with a bit of attitude at times, as kittens do! She was just neutered, is up to date on her shots, and her rabies vaccination is good for two years. I originally got her from a coworker, but as a full-time college student, I am realizing I don’t have enough time to give her the attention and care she deserves. She would do best in a home where she can play and be given space when needed. If you or someone you know is interested in giving her a loving home, please reach out! I just want to make sure she goes somewhere where she’ll be happy and well cared for.

Matilda is a very sweet old lady who ultimately loves people and cuddles and really thrives in an environment where someone is home a lot. I unfortunately, have had a very big life switch where I cannot be home as often as before. She is freshly 18 so she doesn’t play or scratch or bite or jump too high. She may occasionally follow a laser pointer, but mainly appreciates long naps with you by her side. She definitely will meow to let her presence known, but like I said the sweet girl mainly just wants company. When I adopted her at 14 she she had been in foster care for almost a year due to her old age, but it was hard not to fall in love with this beautiful sweet girl. She does have kidney disease and hyperthyroidism which can be managed with regular vet visits! So ideally someone who can take her to the vet as she needs it (every 2-3 months or so).

EJ was a stray cat living outside of an office building for the last year or two. She was captured and brought in only a few weeks ago. She is a huge cuddler, has no problem with pets on her head, belly, tail, back, etc! She's an absolute star. She's shown no tendency to escape, no destructive behaviors, and had been completely calm around other animals. She can be shy but quickly opens up when she knows you just want to love her. :) She took a nail trim with no issues as well. Truly a wonderful kitty. She has been taken to a vet and is fixed and now has her rabies and distemper shots. She did not have a chip. She tested positive for FIV (essentially feline HIV) which unfortunately means she must be strictly indoor only and should be the only other cat in the household. However she is otherwise in great health and should live a long and normal kitty life despite this diagnosis.

Looking for I cuddly best friend? Look no further! Ziggy is The perfect lap cat! he loves to cuddle and will purr the whole time. He's a little older than 2 (so he's still just a baby) so he loves to play. If you have been searching for a sweet friendly cat then you've found him!

Are you an introvert? Love reading books or watching a movie with a cuddle buddy on your lap? If so, this is your guy! Sassafras Swirl is an introvert too. He arrived at my door a little over a year ago. He was emaciated and wasn't going to make it. I started feeding him, fell in love with him, and brought him inside. He was clearly a former housecat. Sassafras had a PU (perineal urethrostomy) surgery in December. That, along with a prescription diet and being separated from my other cats, seems to have fully resolved his FLUTD (feline lower urinary tract disease) issues. I have 3 cats and he is bullied by one of them. I've "tried it all" and there is no resolving it. For his health, I keep him separated, but it breaks my heart. He would love a home of his own with no other pets or kids. He has made huge strides in the past year! He's a shy, low energy guy, with anxiety who would love a pet parent who can relate, and give him time and space to come out of his shell even more.
