We do not have a public facility to visit our cats. All of our cats/kittens live in private foster homes throughout Stafford, VA & the surrounding area.

Are you ready for a new family member?

 

Our cats are ready for their furever homes.  They are currently in loving foster homes.  Bringing a new cat into your home is a big responsibility and we understand and appreciate your commitment.  We want to help you make the best choice to fit your home and lifestyle. 

What if two kitties are BFFs?

We strongly encourage adopting kitties in pairs.

Adoptions are the main goal for any cat rescue.  Finding kitties purrrmanent fur-ever homes is what it's all about.  Your adoption fees are the life-blood of any rescue.  Those  fees help to offset the organization's expenses, to include the cost of medical expenses (surgeries, exams, FeLV/FIV combo test, deworming, vaccines, microchipping, misc. medications/dewormer/flea & tick control,  as well as daily care (food, litter, cleaning supplies etc.), in addition to administrative & marketing expenses.  Your cat will come to you healthy and we want to ensure he or she continues to receive the best care through regular annual veterinary checkups. 

The questions we ask on our adoption application is to ensure the best match for our felines and you.  Thank you so much for your interest and we are here to answer any questions and concerns you may have.
