Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Sora is here to sweep you off your feet! This gorgeous little lady is looking to warm up your home with some roarin' purrs and some kitty lovin'. Sora is a curious little thing, so a home with plenty of thing for her to crawl through and on top of will be ideal for her. She was transferred to us from a neighboring rescue, so we're still learning more and more about her as the days go by. What we do know is that she's the first to greet you at the condo door, so we have a feeling she'll be a little ham once she's all cozy and comfy in her new home. If Sora sounds like the cat you've been dreaming of, then come on in and meet her!

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
