American Shorthair kittens & cats in Herndon, Virginia

Lucy and Ethel are litter mates that I rescued 10 years ago when they were kittens. They lived outdoors and weren’t well cared for. They are super sweet cats and I truly hate the thought of rehoming them. However, as I age my allergies for pet dander has gotten extremely worse, intolerable. I started doing allergy shots and have gotten no relief. My physical health is suffering and they sure need and deserve all the love, cuddles, and pets. They still have their claws and are strictly indoor cats. They have to stay together! They typically hide when a visitor comes. They tolerate my grandkids but are used to a quiet home with no other pets. Ethel has to be on rx dry food diet from two prior issues with bladder stones. I’m so concerned about finding a loving home, that I will continue to provide at my expense, the rx food just for peace of mind and her care. They are not on any medications. I have the paperwork on all their up to date shots and microchipping.

My mother in law is in hospice and imminently dying. She has 2 cats, and both myself and my sister in law are allergic and cannot take them when she passes. We are looking for the best option for placement for them where they will not risk being put down. They are both indoor cats.

Meet Fez, a striking Asian Blue Tabby beauty. At just one year old, he's mastered the art of relaxation, basking in the warmth of the sun. He delights in playful antics with toys or his best pal, Stella. He loves to lay next to your computer while you work in your office and will want to paw at your screen chasing the courser helping you work. Whether it's mingling with the family dog or kids, Fez's friendly nature knows no bounds. Fez is living the good life after a rough start in which he battled and beat FIP (feline infectious peritonitis). He's cured and should not require additional treatments. Fastidious in grooming, Fez takes pride in his pristine appearance. His sweet round face adds to his irresistible charm. When mealtime arrives, get ready for a display of pure joy as Fez gracefully dances around your feet, eagerly anticipating the feast ahead. Fez and Stella are a bonded flower, and need to be adopted together. Both are ready to bring warmth and joy into your home.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.

Rita is an extremely affectionate cat. She was left behind by some neighbors who moved away. We have been feeding her for the past three months. However, we realized she cannot defend herself and often shows up injured. The last time this happened, we decided to bring her inside to treat her wounds. She is currently receiving medication, has been dewormed, and is improving. Unfortunately, we cannot keep her as we already have other cats in the house, including one who is 15 years old and very stressed by Rita’s presence. Rita is incredibly loving, always asking to be held. Despite being brought indoors, she hasn’t complained at all. Even when I tend to her wounds, she kneads the whole time, as if she’s comforting herself.

Leyla's Personality Beauty and brains, sweet and just a little bit sassy. This little charmer, whose nickname is "Miss Bean," will win you over in no time. Leyla loves hanging out with her foster parents and is always close. She likes to lay next to you on the couch - just provide a nice, soft fleece blanket. Leyla is super friendly and loves, loves, loves being brushed. She enjoys a gentle routine and rewards you with soft purrs and gentle head butts. Leyla came into SPCA's care pregnant - delivering six healthy kittens two days later. Once her kittens were weaned and adopted, Leyla became more playful as she learned to be a kitten again! Leyla goes nuts over a catnip-filled pillow. She sometimes gets the zoomies and chases just about anything that moves. Miss Bean won't wake you up for breakfast in the morning, but waits patiently by your side until you pet her, then she starts the day with the loudest purr. She loves to sleep on a soft blanket on the bed at night and occasionally chases your toes under the covers. Her favorite things are catnip toys, getting brushed and showing off her trick sitting on command for treats. If Leyla can’t find you, she lets out a little meow, and comes running when you call. She loves people, and is not shy at all. She is a perfect little companion. What Type of Home Leyla Needs This sweet, sassy girl needs a home where people are around for her to hang out with. She is not demanding, but likes to be near people. Leyla likes to be in charge of her territory and needs to be the only pet - no other cats or dogs. When Leyla is unsettled or anxious about new things, she can get a little over-stimulated and nip your hands - so no young children now or in the future. An older, cat-savvy child who has lived with cats before might be ok (over about 12 years of age). This behavior has subsided in her foster home now that she has settled in. Where Leyla Came From Leyla was rescued from outdoors by a kind man who found her abandoned in a park shortly before giving birth to six healthy kittens (all adopted). She was such a sweet, nurturing mama. Now its time for Leyla to have a home of her own.PLEASE NOTE:  we only adopt to residents of the DC metro area, which includes DC, Prince Georges and Montgomery Counties in MD, and Arlington, Fairfax, Prince William, and Loudoun Counties in VA.
