Hudson spent this past week with a new foster while his original one went out of town and he transitioned beautifully!

Both fosters have raved about what a fabulous cat Hudson is, very affectionate and gentleman like when playing. At his current home, when he sees the resident cat walk by outside, he is very interested. Instead of puffing up or hissing, he acts like he wants to play and his foster thinks he might like another cat for a buddy. 🥰

We can't end this post without mentioning Hudson's adorably bobbed tail. It is the cutest nubbin! 😍 If you're interested in giving this affectionate boy a home, please put in an application on our website!

Kris & Kringle are quite a fun pair! Just like most siblings, they love to play together.
While they have no issues with dogs, their foster shares that they thrive a calm environment. They're beautiful kittens looking for their forever home. If you're interested in adopting either/both cat(s), please put in an application through our website.

Cinnamon is one of three torties we currently have in care. She's a young girl, early this past September. And, as such, she's quite playful with lots of kitten energy!

Her foster reports that Cinnamon is very affection and has the stereotypical "torti-tude,
i.e. she's strong-willed and likes to get her way 😆 (who doesn't?!).

If you're interested in meeting Cinnamon, she spends weekdays at Old Dominion Animal Hospital Charlottesville in their lobby. You can put in an application to adopt her through our website!

Ebony and Rex are both flourishing! They are shy little ones, but have finally started joining their foster humans in rooms rather than avoiding them. They are most forthcoming early in the morning when the house is quiet and if their fosters sit quietly, the kittens will come over and love on them! HUGE PROGRESS! 😍

Rex in particular loves his ear scratches, and then will flop over and allow you to scratch his belly. Ebony, on the other hand, prefers body to head scratches, and is still a bit more shy than her brother, except in regards to our dog, whom she adores and loves on even when it begets her a sloppy wet setter kiss in the face.

Both have made Alcatraz-like escapes, but returned within 24 hours, so we feel confident that they truly want to be with people and enjoy their lives as house kitties. They are becoming more vocal by the day and both have unique, playful interactions with our other cat.

This pair is playful, rambunctious, and often found chasing one another around the house in a cacophony of jingles, given their collars. They are definitely nearing readiness for a forever home and would do well in a variety of scenarios (quiet to loud, kids or no kids, dogs or no dogs).

If you're interested in adopting this pair, please put in an application through our website!

Good news to start off the week! Jake, who was likely attacked by a coyote, found a new home. His new humans are going to try him indoors to see how he transitions. Regardless, he will have a safer place to live!

Introducing Pixie, our newest lovely tortie! 😍

Lonesome George? More like Handsome George!

George is having a great time exploring his foster home. He is definitely a people cat and is slowly starting to adventure into more of the house. His foster reports that he's an active boy, and his favorite activities are playing with toys and staring out the window. Put in an application to adopt George through our website!

‼️We have over ten colony cats that need to be relocated to safer homes.️‼️

When we TNVR (Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return), most feral cats are able to be *Returned* to their original home. However, sometimes, that original home is unsafe and it's best for the cats to be relocated.

We have been working at the Vulture colony and have resettled 16 cats, but there are at least 10 more that need new homes. Barn cats provide excellent safe rodent control for your property and only ask for access to an outdoor shelter, food and water in return.

We adopt barn cats in pairs or trios. This is because they tend to transition to new properties better when they have a buddy. We provide everything you need to transition them successfully. If you're able to provide working cats a safe home, please email [email protected].

We have such happy news to share: Mr. T has found a home!🥳

If you recall, you all helped save Mr. T's life! Upon being rescued, this sweet boy was found to be FIV+ and with a significant heart murmur. This amazing community helped raise funds so that Mr. T could receive the diagnostic care he needed to determine the extent of his heart murmur. While the imaging determined that he has a grade 5 heart murmur (out of 6), he was also able to be diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopath (HCM), making sure that he can accurately receive the care he needs to thrive! ❤

After many months of searching for a home (he was rescued last May!), Mr. T finally has a loving family committed to caring for him. Take a moment and celebrate with us!!! 😍

If you can't tell from this photo, Hudson is a snuggle bug (notice that he's laying on his foster human). Whenever his foster is about to sit down on the couch, Hudson comes running and then figures out the perfect way to get close to him before stretching out. If you're looking for a lap cat, Hudson is your guy!

Put in an application for Hudson through our website!

Jake, the kitty who was attacked by a large animal, is healing well. He had his stitches removed earlier this week. While he tolerates being pet by his foster, he's not happy about it and would definitely be better as an outdoor cat. We're looking to transition him and his girlfriend (already fixed) to a property as a barn home. Can you offer him (or other barn cats--we have a lot!) a new home? Email [email protected] to give him a safe place to land.

Jake's vet bill was quite large and we could use some help with it. Please consider donating to his care. ❤ https://shorturl.at/EStxl

Thank you KitNipBox for all the goodies! Rescue kitties Ms. Hathaway and E.T. (Extra Toes the polydactyl) are loving their new toys and treats!

Alex and Connie get sweeter every day! They are purr machines and rub affectionately all over their fosters. They're beautiful too! This darling pair is available for adoption! Applications are on our website!

Connie & Alex got fixed today and, goodness, are they happy to be back at their foster home! Volume up for happy purrs. This precious pair is available for adoption.

Charlie was adopted! Can you believe that this handsome cutiepie is a former colony kitty?! He was brought indoors by a kind caretaker and then came to us for our big spay day in April. One of our volunteers agreed to foster him and initially thought he'd need some socialization. Much to all our delight, he let us know that he's a true sweet heart and happily adjusted to indoor life. He loves belly rubs, purring, and wrestling. After sharing one photo of him, we received a flurry of adoption applications, and he may hold the record for the fastest adoption! Today, Charlie is headed home to his forever family. He'll have a much needed playmate to keep his kitten heart happy and two adoring humans. Congratulations, Charlie! We love you!

Snuggly Mystery is still waiting on her forever family. It's hard to believe that there hasn't been any interest in her yet. Not only is she gorgeous and cuddly, but her adoption fee is being sponsored by @fetch_cville ! If you're interested in adding this gorgeous gal to your home, please submit an application through our website! #tortiesofinstagram #torties #catsofinstagram #catstagram #cvillelocal #cvilleva #charlottesvillefamily #catrescue #albemarleva

Helping cats in central Virginia

Every cat has a right to a pain-free life with sufficient food, shelter, and medical care. Where these basic needs are not being met by other organizations in the ten counties we serve in central Virginia, CAT will step in. A compelling need exists for those felines who currently fall between the cracks of well-meaning but underfunded caretakers.

Without our intercession, many kittens and adult cats will starve, suffer or die from injuries, illness or exposure. The standard of living for feral cats should be just as high as for house cats when it comes to food, medical care and shelter. Working in an effective and efficient manner, we will liaise with other animal-rescue and welfare groups to fill a vital niche for the cats in our area.

CAT will advocate for and support felines whose caretakers cannot provide for them, as well as for those cats living in counties with inadequate or non-existent low-cost clinics or shelters. Our work will greatly reduce the numbers of cats brought into shelters who would otherwise be euthanized, by helping them remain in place. All cats deserve to live in peace in their colonies with appropriate care.
