While our senior kitties might be in their golden years, they still have a lot of love to give and living to do. We absolutely adore these older souls and the presence they bring to your home. They might be set in their ways but we know them well to advise on the best match for potential adopters. Our senior kitties come to us from all sorts of backgrounds and origin stories. We think it is so special when an adopter wants to open their heart and home to an older kitty, knowing the reward will be so great to see them completely comfortable and happy where they belong. We commit to providing initial veterinary care to get a good picture of our senior kitties health prior to adoption so we can share everything we know about the cat prior to adoption. Give a senior a chance! You won’t regret it!
*Please note that we aim to keep this page updated with available and adoptable cats but things change every day. Cats and kittens may become unavailable as applications are approved. Our Adoption team can advise on available kitties when your application has been approved.
Blair, Female, 9 Years Old
Blair is a sweet and spirited girl who loves attention and greets everyone with soft meows and happy purrs. If you notice her smile looks a little different, that is because she had some dental work in her previous home which left her with the cutest expression that we absolutely adore. She is playful and affectionate, especially when she is chasing after her snake toy or burrowing under the covers to curl up in bed. Blair is ready to enjoy the safe and happy indoor life she has been waiting for, and she will do best in a quiet home without other pets or children where she can be the center of attention.

The Cat Formerly Known as Prince, Male, 9 Years Old
Meet the cat formerly known as Prince, a 9-year-old brown tabby ready to turn his outdoor blues into a chart-topping indoor love song. This gentle soul has officially retired from his community cat days and is embracing the good life inside—velvet couches, endless snacks, and all the wand toys a royal could dream of. Much like his namesake, this Prince has charisma, charm, and a soft spot for a good jam session—his favorite hits include “When Doves Purr” and “Little Red Laser Light.” He’s sweet, easygoing, and loves the company of other cats, proving that even rockstars enjoy a good duet now and then. If you’re ready to share your kingdom (or just your couch) with a mellow, affectionate boy who knows how to steal hearts with a single glance, the cat formerly known as Prince is ready to make beautiful music with you.

Foxy Lady, Female, 8 Years Old
Foxy Lady! She’s gorgeous and she’s full of personality! Seriously, that face is saying “are you worthy to be my best friend?” Foxy has distinguished taste which often means it takes her a bit to decide if she likes you but once she does, she’s a snuggly sweetheart. Foxy isn’t just a pretty face, she’s silly and fun to be around too! Over time she has truly blossomed into an affectionate girl and enjoys being spoiled by her foster family, where there is no shortage of cuddle sessions on the couch or before bed.
Foxy Lady has done very well in her foster home, finding cozy places to chill, sunny spots to sprawl out and the occasional kitty friend to interact with. Foxy has a bit of a sensitive stomach, so we will share all of our tips on a food that agrees with her to avoid any issues! Small children and dogs are not recommended in Foxy’s future home.

Nike – Goddess of Victory, Female, 10 Years Old
Bring home our Nike, Goddess of Victory, and you’ll win a purrfect companion for life! Before she ended up in Tails High’s care, Nike’s life was marred by tragedy. Once a house cat, Nike somehow ended up outside in a very large cat colony in NE DC, forced to fend for herself. When our volunteers found her, she had been living with a severe tail injury for almost two years and was suffering from a severe mosquito allergy. She required a tail amputation, but luckily, with a little TLC inside and some vet care, Nike has fully recovered. And now she has the cutest little lamb tail you’ll ever see!! Nike makes a great companion. She loves to have a conversation, and she’ll coo right back to you when you tell her you love her. She enjoys getting pets and being brushed, and she’ll even dribble drool from happiness as she soaks in your love — she just can’t contain it! Treats are a love language for Nike, and she is happy to entertain herself during the day, mostly sleeping the day away in a good napping spot. When you come home in the evenings, she’ll be right there, ready to help you wind down with some Nike Time! Nike would prefer to be your entire world (aka the only pet in your home), and she has more than enough love to give. She can be a tiny bit unsure about new people at first (understably, given her history), but with a few treats, you’ll be her favorite person for life. And there is no greater honor than being Nike’s person. If you’re looking for a chill companion, our little goddess could be your girl!

Oreo, Female, 11 years Old
Oh, Oreo, you’ve come so far! This silly little 11 year old gal was adopted several years ago and unfortunately returned when her owner had to move across the country and fell on hard times. Oreo was quite scared when she came back to us and took months and months to even come out of her carrier in her foster home. It was heartbreaking. Fast forward to now, she has come leaps and bounds from the carrier dweller she once was but she still does like to find cozy places to hunker down… like under the sink in her foster mom’s bathroom. Oreo has surprised us the last several weeks as she’s been out and about exploring, hanging on the couch with her foster family watching tv, and accepting pets with some purrs in exchange. She’s not a cuddle bug just yet, but we’re confident that once she’s in a forever home that allows her to settle in time, she’s going to flourish into the laid back senior sweetie she’s always meant to be. If you’re considering a companion and think Oreo would be a good fit for you, we’re accepting applications for cat experienced potential adopters!
