American Shorthair Cats Available for Adoption in Pikesville, Maryland

Our rescue is based out of Pikesville, Maryland!

We typically do not adopt more than 45 minutes away from Pikesville, so please bear that in mind!

Mary Jane and her five kittens are looking for a foster home together. The kittens can leave their mother in the coming weeks, until then we need to keep this little family in a spare room where they can run and play.

The kittens were born in early April. They are all friendly and healthy.

Mary Jane is a sweet girl, maybe three or four years old, who is on the skittish side and takes her time to warm up to new people, but shows her affection for you by rolling around and rubbing against things. She needs a quiet and patient home where she can recover from having litter after litter outdoors.

Please do not submit an application for an individual kitten at this time unless you are able to foster the entire family.
Whoever fosters the litter gets to name the kittens! They are as follows:

Buff female
Buff male
Buff and white male
Dilute torbie female
Orange tabby with white male

Each cat will have a minimum of the following vet care at the time adoptions are finalized:

Spay or neuter, microchip, FIV/FLV testing (in the kittens case, mom will be tested), worming, deflea, and age-appropriate vaccines.

Please email needs.must.cats@proton.me to express interest!

Needs Must Cats will have received full vetting including spay or neuter, FIV/FLV testing, microchip, and treatment for parasites by time of adoption. The adoption fee in the amount below helps us assist more cats and kittens in urgent need. These fees do not even begin to cover our expenses so please consider making an additional donate to support our life-saving efforts!

Adult Cat / Kitten over 6 months - $90 (Pair: $155)
