Rescue Me ID: 17-07-26-00344 

American Shorthair Mix    Age: Young Kitten

Compatibility: Good with Most Dogs 
Personality: High Energy, Submissive 
Health: Needs Vaccinations 

    At least 1 dozen feral kittens with mothers that have taken up residency under my barn. Need to remove them, but would prefer to have them taken to a farm since animal services would most likely euthanize them. Most are friendly and will stay to their own. My dog plays with them and only a few are scared of him. Kitten's age ranges from 3 weeks to 1 month. Mothers age approx. 1 year.

American Shorthair Mix    Age: Adult

Compatibility: Good with Most Dogs, Good with Kids and Adults 
Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Spayed, Vaccinations Current 

    We are moving across the country and have made the tough decision to rehome our cats. DaVinci is our male Maine Coon and SIssy is our female Tabby. They need to go to separate homes as they do not get along. Both have been under our vets care since we've owned them. Both cats are very sweet and currently live with our dog so they are used to other animals, however Sissy would be best suited to a home without other animals as she is a typical shy cat. DaVinci is good with dogs but may be dominant with other cats

    Porch is the cutest, sweetest black tabby-shorthair you will ever meet. I nicknamed her Miss Congeniality because she always loves to play and make amazing leaps and bounds across the living room to see why you're happy or sad so she can act accordingly. I wouldn't give her up except I HAVE TO--Please, please help me find her the berst home she deserves!

Rescue Me ID: 17-05-29-00349Orange (male)

American Shorthair Mix    Age: Senior

Compatibility: Good w/ Female Cats Only, Not Good w/ Dogs, Good w/ Adults (Not Kids) 
Personality: Average Energy, Average Temperament 
Health: Vaccinations Current 

    Orange is gettinig a little more sedentary as he nears middle-age--but he can still chase a string or even bring in a live mouse. Don't fear, he'll never let his eyes off his prey until it's done for. He has a little PTSD from his previous home so can be a bit demanding about constant feeding. Once he learns his food schedule he's ok. He's a sweet, intuitive, smart, loyal friend--I DO NOT want to lose him, but due to my own recent traumatic events, I can't care for him anymore. I prey we find a good home for him b/c he deserves it.

    Charlie is a great cat. He was found starving outside and surviving on chipmunks in winter. He loves to be around people. He is good with other cats, especially female kitties. He likes kids and attention, but can be like a cat and grab, so kids fine, but maybe not really young kids. He needs a large home with things going on and loves to garden or be in yard, but only if safe from cars, etc. Very handsome and oriental face. Adoptions in and around fairfax county only, in northern virginia we think he is about 5 yrs old.
