Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Stafford, Virginia

✨ Hi, I’m Maxine ✨

I may only weigh about 5 pounds, but I carry myself like I own the entire room.
I am an 8-month-old orange-and-white tabby who arrived at the shelter as a stray on 05-02-2026, and apparently, it only took a short photo shoot for everyone to realize I have plenty of personality packed into this tiny frame.
I have a lot to say. I am elegant. I am friendly. I am a little dramatic. And yes, I absolutely have diva energy.

One minute, I am charming everyone around me; the next, I am giving a look that says I expect better customer service immediately.

I am the perfect combination of sweet and snobby, all wrapped into one petite little orange tabby package. If you are looking for a cat with personality, confidence, and star quality, I think we both know I am your girl.

Meet me today. I am ready to leave stray life behind and move into a home where I can properly be admired.
