Scoot - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Fairfax, Virginia

Scoot is a sweet and beautiful young adult kitten seeking a loving home! Scoot came to the shelter with an injury that affected her mobility. Hence how she got her name; Scoot! According to Scoot’s foster, ""She's doing amazing!!! She is so sweet and high energy, keeping her 'rested' due to her pelvic fractures has actually been such a challenge, haha ~ We've actually been calling her 'Scoot' because of how she was originally walking, though she doesn't scoot around as much now and walks almost like a normal cat!" Scoot has been cleared by the vet and is ready for a fun and loving adoptive family. Come meet and adopt Scoot, today!
