Chaos

American Shorthair

Female, Adult

Olney, MD

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

We have had Chaos since she was a kitten and sadly she does not get along with our other cats and is causing them stress. She is an amazing cat but needs to be the sole fuzzy pet of the house. She loves cuddling, likes to sit at the dinner table, loves playing with string and lasers. She loves being around her humans and loves attention. She also loves sleeping under the covers. She will meow at you when it's time for bed. We are currently trying to get her used to a harness to go on walks. She has an amazing personality but we can't get rid of our other 3 cats for her, especially since two of them are seniors. The adoption fee is to make sure she goes to a safe and loving home.

Haru

American Shorthair

Male, Young

North Bethesda, MD

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Haru was adopted by me through the shelter. They think he was 2 years old and he was found roaming the streets (but they suspect he was with an owner previously). He is a needy cat who needs a larger space to explore. Haru is very food motivated and will do anything for a treat! He is not cuddly and prefers to be pet on his terms. But he shows affection by rubbing himself up your legs and meowing. I am rehoming Haru because my space is simply too small for this cat, who is easily excited and very needy.

Noktis

American Shorthair

Male, Adult

Herndon, VA

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

I found Noktis four or five years ago while walking my newly acquired large dog with separation anxiety in Union City, CA. My dog lunged at Noktis' mother and she ran away, leaving Noktis behind. He was the only kitten with her and was very easy to pick up. I realized he was in a terrible condition. Noktis' eyes were glued shut by some sort of infection. He was small enough to fit in the inner pocket of my jacket, so I took him home to a room I rented in the same city. I woke up my then-boyfriend and he helped gently dab away the run-off so that the little kitten's eyes opened the tiniest bit. I couldn't keep him because I already owned another adult female cat along with my large dog. I was ready to give Noktis away but X grew attached and wanted to keep him. Noktis' has a very high pitched meow. He's a wild kitty who growls as he eats his food. He loves his brother Cloud very much! He comes together with Cloud or not at all.
