These golden-age beauties like to live on the slower side of life, but are not above chasing a mouse or two to liven things up every once in a while. If you are interested in adopting a one of these golden beauties please fill out our Online Adoption Form or attend one of our Adoption Events.
If you are unsure about whether or not to adopt an older cat, please see a testimonial here about adopting an older soul.
Precious, Female, 15 Years Old
Precious is a gorgeous 15 year old sweet little torbie/tabby lady looking for her soft place to fall. She came to us after her dad passed away and she ended up homeless. She was so stressed she was under weight and had pulled out some of her fur. She now has a healthy weight and her gorgeous fur is in excellent shape. She loves to be pet behind her ears and all over. She will sit on your lap and purr for hours. She also has spunk in her older age and still loves to play. She is healthy for her age. Precious is a treat to come home to and anyone would be lucky to come home to this sweet companion.

Macaroni, Female, Born 2009
This lovely lady was adopted as a Tails High kitten in 2009. She’s come back to us after the passing of her human. Macaroni was sad for a while but she’s acclimated well to her foster home. She needs her thyroid pill twice a day and she never knows it’s been crushed up and mixed into her food. Macaroni wants to be the queen, your one and only and she will need to be brushed on a very regular basis to avoid developing matts. You can wake up every morning with the lovely macaroni cuddled up in your arm pit! She is not a good fit for homes with children or dogs.

Sobi, Male, 12 Years Old
Sobi is estimated to be 12 years old but has the energy of a much younger cat! Sobi is a curious and sweet boy who loves pets and attention from anyone who will give it. His foster mom says he has a special love for head scratches and his catnip toys. He’s talkative when it’s time for food and has the cutest small meow to go with his cute small thumbs. Sobi has a lot of life left and lot of love to give and would love to be your best friend! Sobi hasn’t interacted much with other cats in his foster homes but also doesn’t seem to mind them. He isn’t aggressive with other easy going kitties whatsoever and could likely fit in with any existing cat family you have or be your one and only. We do think dogs are a no go, especially hyper ones.

Augusta, Female, 15 Years Old
medical hold
Augusta is currently under treatment with a medical foster after dental surgery and additional diagnostics to address her ongoing health concerns since being rescued. We are open to discussing foster to adopt with a family that understands her medical needs and are willing to work closely with Tails High and Augusta’s vet.
Augusta was very fortunate to find her way to Tails High after a Good Samaritan asked for help after she turned up on her porch outside in West Virginia. Augusta had clearly been outside trying to survive on her own for quite some time as she was covered in matted fur, fleas and abrasions. Our vets believed she lost her eye many years ago as it had completely healed and doesn’t cause her any pain or limitations. Augusta has seen our vets a number of times since coming into rescue and they’ve informed us that she is an old gal that could have underlying health issues not easily diagnosed. Despite the fact that we may not have much time with Augusta, we’re committed to making sure she is loved very much whether that is in a foster home or with a special forever home that is willing to give her an opportunity to be adopted by a family of her very own. She continues to give kisses and show us every day how grateful she is for her second chance.

Nomad, Male, 10 years old
checking out a new family
Nomad has had quite the life over the last 10 years leading up to his recent journey to Northern Virginia. This handsome fella was very well loved in his home in Kabul until his dad, along with countless others, fled Afghanistan this past summer. His dad loved him and got him to safety with Kabul Small Animal Rescue where he was well taken care of until Mission Possible evacuated Nomad and 300 friends to Vancouver. To say this boy is special would be insufficient. It’s hard to sum up his personality but we’ll try – what a lover boy?!?! Nomad loves to be held, to sit on your lap, be pet and his dad tells us he slept in bed with him every night. Nomad likes to chat and is a talkative boy in his foster home. As he’s been making himself comfortable in the US, we addressed some dental issues and Nomad had several teeth removed so he’s feeling much better. We also learned he is FIV+ but currently has healthy bloodwork. This just means he could have less immunity than a kitty without FIV but can still live a long life. We’d be happy to talk to any interested adopter about Nomad to determine if he’s a good fit for your family. We are determined to find him the best possible home so he never has to go through stressful times again.
