Alfie, short for Alfonso, is a sweet young orange tabby cat who was found living in an outdoor cat colony in DC. He was trapped, neutered, and released back into his colony, but a nearby neighbor took note of how friendly he was and decided to see if he'd be interested in living indoors. Turns out that he loves indoor living, and has adjusted well to it.  He's described as curious, a little mischievous, can settle down for long naps but also likes to explore/pace around. He absolutely loves belly rubs and really enjoys the company of other cats. We'd like to see Alfie adopted into a home where he'd have a feline friend. His sister, Mac, is also available for adoption. Alfie is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and tested negative for FIV/Felv. Alfie's adoption fee is $175. If you adopt 2 kittens, the fee is $150 per kitten. If you are interested in learning more about Alfie, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org. The first step toward adopting Alfie is to complete an application. Upon reveiw, a PAW volunteer will reach out to you to set up a meet and greet.   show less

Bootsie is a sweet black and white long haired female cat who was found in a cat colony in Harpers Ferry, WV. Despite living with many outdoor feral cats, Bootsie is very friendly and was clearly a housecat at some point. Our vet estimates Bootsie at 4-6 years old. After about a week living indoors, Bootsie has adjusted to life inside and loves to be petted and brushed by her foster mom. She enjoys sitting and sleeping with her foster mom and loves to play. Bootsie has been checked out by our vet and is in good health, though she has tested positive for FIV. FIV is not transmittable to humans and can only be transmitted to other cats via deep bite wounds. Cats in households with stable social structures where housemates do not fight are at little risk of acquiring FIV infections. In addition, research has shown that cats with FIV can live a lifespan as long as a non FIV cat. FIV should not be seen as a reason not to adopt! Bootsie's adoption fee is $125 and she is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. If you are interested in learning more about Bootsie, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org. The first step toward adoption is to complete an application. After reviewing your application, a volunteer will reach out to you to arrange a virtual meet and greet.  show less

Casper is an affectionate male cat with a lovely all white coat and beautiful green eyes. He was a stray in rural VA, and has made his way to PAW to find his forever home.

He greets his foster mom with a twitching tail, signalling that he is glad to see her. He communicates in little mews and is generally a quiet boy. Casper has been neutered, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, has been microchipped and is up to date on his vaccines. If you are interested in Casper, please complete an application.

Salvador is a beautiful snowshoe male with luminous light blue eyes. We don't know much about where Sal came from - he was found as a stray already neutered, so we assume he was someone's pet at one point. He enjoys petting sessions, lap naps, and meows for his foster mom's attention when he sees her for in the morning or when she comes home from work. He plays by batting toys around the floor and especially loves a catnip toy like the catnip filled banana. Sal also likes to be with his humans, preferring to be in the same room with them whenever possible and sleeps at the foot of his foster mom's bed. When Sal arrived at PAW, it was clear that he had a few medical issues. We discovered that his teeth and gums were in bad shape and likely causing him a lot of pain, and as a result, he required a number of extractions. Don't worry, not only is his mouth no longer hurting him, he's still eating his preferred food - dry kibble - without any issues.  Sal was originally very anxious when he arrived at his foster mom's house, but after a few months, has settled right in. He is a good traveler, going to the weekend house with his foster mom nearly every week without fuss or anxiety, and does well in the new environment when he arrives. Sal does sometimes get annoyed and will let you know he's had enough by swatting with his paws or growling. For this reason, we recommend Sal be in a home without small children. Sal is getting along with the other cats and dog in the home, but he would probably prefer that his feline companions be on the chill side vs. playful. Salvador is neutered, up to date on his vaccinations and is microchipped. His has tested positive for FIV, but is negative for FElv. FIV+ status does not mean that Sal will not live a normal lifespan. Good resources for learning about FIV in cats can be found here: https://vbspca.com/what-you-should-know-when-adopting-an-fiv-positive-cat/  If you would like to meet Salvador via a Facetime or Zoom video call and learn more about him, please complete the application here: www.paw-rescue.org/adopt and we will be in touch. If you have any other questions, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org Due to the COVID pandemic, we are doing meet and greets with our foster cats via Zoom, Facetime or other video conferencing platforms. Since the adopter won't be able to meet them in person, PAW is honoring a 2 week trial adoption to ensure it's a good fit. show less
