Maeve the beautiful cat may start off as the quiet observer, lounging in her favorite spot and watching you with curious golden eyes. But give this lovely "tabico" (tabby and calico) girl a little time, and you’ll feel her gently lean into your hand, blink slowly up at you, and decide you’re officially "her person." Maeve is also a surprisingly talkative little lady with a lot to say and so much love to share. At the shelter, she often curls up in her little hideaway at the shelter, but the moment someone stops by to chat, she perks right up and joins the conversation with soft meows. Especially if it leads to her favorite thing: scritches! Maeve is just a kind, friendly soul looking for a calm, loving home where she can blossom at her own pace. Come meet and adopt Maeve today, you will be utterly smitten!
If you'd like to meet our available pets, please check the "shelter information" box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt
