If you would like to be considered as a Foster to Adopt candidate, please complete an adoption application at Adoption Application. Each application is considered for approval on a case by case basis.
As a rescue group we receive numerous calls about all types of cats daily. In the case of our ‘Almost Purrfect Cats’ we have accepted them into our rescue and have worked with each of these kitties on a case by case basis to make them as comfortable as possible in preparation for a new forever home. Each of our cats is unique but with most of these kitties they likely need a more patient adopter that is willing to give them more time than usual to adjust to their new environment. Our team is here to guide you and support you even once your new family member has become your forever companion. When you put in the work with a special cat, the reward is like none other! Please let us know about your experience with socializing and caring for cats when completing your adoption application.
Fiona, Female, 8 years old
Fiona is a beautiful and intelligent kitty that will need a cat experienced adopter to help her continue to flourish. Fiona is very shy and takes quite a while to warm up to new people but that doesn’t mean she isn’t a happy lady. She really seems to enjoy being with other cats in her foster home, often seen snuggling with someone in a soft blanket and being close during meal times. While Fiona will likely never be a lap cat, she deserves a happy life with a family that is patient and willing to let her have space to grow confidence. We would love to find her a forever home with someone willing to continue socializing her and working with our team on methods we have found helpful in helping kitties acclimate to new environments. To be considered as a prospective adopter please tell us how you think you can help Fiona so she can live out her life with lots of care and love in your adoption application.

Marzipan & Jewel Eyed Judy (bonded pair), Females, 5 & 3 years old
Marzipan and Jewel Eyed Judy have such a special bond, we absolutely could never imagine separating them. This gorgeous pair is available to adopt as a pair to a cat experienced home that will be committed to giving them the time and space they need to settle in and show their beautiful souls. While they aren’t littermates, their sisterhood has grown over the last several months in their foster home, where they have become the best of friends. Marzipan was living outside as a stray in Arlington where she was adored by her caretakers, but they knew she deserved a better life indoors. Marzi was very scared when she was first rescued, but she has blossomed over the last year that she has been with us, and we really think Judy has helped her come out of her shell even more. Marzipan will accept pets on the head but she can clearly be startled by new people, loud noises, and approaching her too quickly, which might bring out a fearful hiss. She isn’t aggressive, just a scaredy cat, but she is so appreciative of her life indoors and her cuddle time with Judy. Jewel Eyed Judy came to us last spring when her owner passed away and she needed a soft place to land. She was so scared after losing her family and the home she knew, but she willingly accepted affection, never acting aggressive whatsoever. Judy is very submissive but once she starts getting chin skritches, she will softly purr and lean in for more love. With time, Judy started to get more and more confidence with her foster family, and we know that her feeling more safe was the perfect example for Marzipan to trust as well. We know these girls are absolutely beautiful and they will likely get interested adopters because of their looks, but we truly want to find a family that wants to work to earn their trust and give them the best life that they both deserve. Marzipan and Jewel Eyed Judy love the cat tree, being by sunny windows, curling up on the couch for a cat nap, and being with each other. They aren’t big into toys and are mostly quiet girls that just want to enjoy hanging out with you while you watch TV or read a book. They’re excellent companions but not lap cats, although they will snuggle with each other nearby and even right up against your legs. Marzipan is estimated to be 5 years old and Jewel Eyed Judy is estimated to be 3 years old. These girls would love to spend the rest of their lives together with a loving and adoring adopter! We would love to hear in your application how you have experience with shy cats or cats that are not as easily handleable or social.
