Description

Hi! I am so excited to meet my new family! My photo might be in with the “seniors”, but my foster family thinks I’m much more like a kitten or young adult. I will entertain myself with my toys, but I really love to have someone play with my peacock feathers and other string and wand toys. My foster mom set up a couple of boxes and Christmas wrapping paper for me to tunnel in and find my favorite feather toys. Right now I’m watching a prime-time bird video on mom’s computer. I love to explore just about anything, anywhere, and any time. Okay, I did hide under the bed when I first got here, but that lasted all of 5 seconds before I was out exploring. 

My foster family says I have beautiful tan and gray striped fur and am super easy to care for. I have excellent litter box habits. I greet everyone with lots of little chirps to say hi or ask someone to play with me. When I get tired, I would love to snuggle next to you. If you’re giving me a pet, I may reach out to you with my paws (no claws, that wouldn’t be nice!) and some nibbles, so I might be better in a family without small children. I don’t know how I would be with other cats or dogs. My foster family has cats and I’m interested in them, but haven’t had a chance to socialize. I’ll be your happiest cat ever, once I’ve gotten to know you. Oh, do you like nose kisses? Then I’ve got you covered!

Adoption fee $100. Included in adoption: all shots, sterilized, dewormed, deflea, microchip

You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please visit: https://fancycats.org/volunteer

Adoption process

Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

Shelter location

Our adoptions are held at the Fair Lakes PETsMART in Fairfax Virginia, at the Chantilly PetsMART, at the Gainesville PetsMART, and at the Springfield PetsMART

    Breed info

    Like the domestic long-haired cat, this is not a breed, but a non-breed classification of mixed-breed cats. Domestic cat (Felis catus) A domestic short-haired cat is a cat of mixed ancestry—thus not belonging to any particular recognized cat breed—possessing a coat of short fur. In British English, they are often referred to as moggies. Domestic short-haired cats should not be confused with the British Shorthair, American Shorthair, or other standardized breeds with "Shorthair" names, which are breeds recognized by various registries. Domestic short-haireds are the most common cat in the United States, accounting for around 90–95% of their number. Other generic terms include house cat and alley cat (the latter may be used more specifically to refer to feral specimens). The term tabby cat technically refers to a coat pattern, but is also often used as a general term for cats of this sort.
