Alfie, short for Alfonso, is a sweet young orange tabby cat who was found living in an outdoor cat colony in DC. He was trapped, neutered, and released back into his colony, but a nearby neighbor took note of how friendly he was and decided to see if he'd be interested in living indoors. Turns out that he loves indoor living, and has adjusted well to it.  He's described as curious, a little mischievous, can settle down for long naps but also likes to explore/pace around. He absolutely loves belly rubs and really enjoys the company of other cats. We'd like to see Alfie adopted into a home where he'd have a feline friend. His sister, Mac, is also available for adoption. Alfie is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and tested negative for FIV/Felv. Alfie's adoption fee is $175. If you adopt 2 kittens, the fee is $150 per kitten. If you are interested in learning more about Alfie, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org. The first step toward adopting Alfie is to complete an application. Upon reveiw, a PAW volunteer will reach out to you to set up a meet and greet.   show less

Bootsie is a sweet black and white long haired female cat who was found in a cat colony in Harpers Ferry, WV. Despite living with many outdoor feral cats, Bootsie is very friendly and was clearly a housecat at some point. Our vet estimates Bootsie at 4-6 years old. After about a week living indoors, Bootsie has adjusted to life inside and loves to be petted and brushed by her foster mom. She enjoys sitting and sleeping with her foster mom and loves to play. Bootsie has been checked out by our vet and is in good health, though she has tested positive for FIV. FIV is not transmittable to humans and can only be transmitted to other cats via deep bite wounds. Cats in households with stable social structures where housemates do not fight are at little risk of acquiring FIV infections. In addition, research has shown that cats with FIV can live a lifespan as long as a non FIV cat. FIV should not be seen as a reason not to adopt! Bootsie's adoption fee is $125 and she is up to date on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. If you are interested in learning more about Bootsie, please contact Heather at cat-coordinator@paw-rescue.org. The first step toward adoption is to complete an application. After reviewing your application, a volunteer will reach out to you to arrange a virtual meet and greet.  show less

Geneva is a 5 year old, 65lb treeing walker coonhound.  She has overcome much to get where she is and is ready for a forever home!  She's a cuddle bug who loves to crawl into bed with you and play around with other dogs like she's a puppy.  She does get the zoomies at home but some ball throws or a Himalayan cheese stick and she starts to settle down.  She is good with kids but not with cats as all she wants to do is chase them and play which can be a difficult situation for them.  She does need some work on command training but she is a quick learner!   PAW places animals in the Washington, DC/Baltimore Metropolitan area only. show less
