Domestic Short Hair and Bengal Cats Available for Adoption in Silver Spring, Maryland

Meet Norman, a happy little tabby with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Norman was rescued as a kitten after being abandoned at a cat colony cared for by his rescuer in Jordan. Since then, he's made the journey all the way to the United States in search of a loving forever home.

Now fully settled into indoor life, Norman has grown into a wonderful, affectionate housecat who's ready to find his perfect match. He is extremely vocal and isn't shy about letting you know when he wants attention-he'll happily meow for pets and is always the first to greet his foster human at the door, eager for love.

Norman absolutely adores being picked up and is a true champion lap cat. At night, he loves nothing more than snuggling up close, purring himself to sleep beside his person.

He gets along well with other cats and would do great in a home with a feline friend after a proper introduction. While he hasn't had experience with dogs or small children, his laid-back and easygoing nature suggests he would likely adjust well. He'd be just as happy as the center of attention in a home all his own, soaking up all the love.

Norman is the perfect mix of cuddly, social, and sweet-and he's more than ready to bring joy to his forever family.

This cat is fixed, up to date on vaccines and preventatives, negative for FelV/FIV, and litter box trained.

The adoption fee for this cat is $200.
