Cat rescue in Germantown, MD

We are an established all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, dedicated to supporting animal welfare. The kitties we offer for adoption are rescued from at-risk environments. Our kitties are lovingly fostered in volunteers’ homes. They are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and tested for major diseases. We also improve welfare in feral cat communities with trap, neuter, and release.

Additional adoption info

Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), combo tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate), treated for parasites, and most have microchips. Tiny kittens go in pairs unless there's a companion animal already in the household. Our adoption fees are low. Most are $150 although some very desirable kitties may be slightly more. For a pair, we reduce the adoption fee slightly.
