Adoptable Cats
Call the shelter at (804) 580-6156 for questions about adoption and available pets. Please leave your name, phone number and a message if there is no answer. You may also contact the shelter by e-mail at [email protected]
This page is dedicated to all of the cats waiting for their forever homes. Their vaccinations are current. If they have not been spayed or neutered at the time of adoption, you'll receive a certificate for spaying/neutering (generously provided by the Animal Welfare League of the Northern Neck). If you have questions about adoptable pets, call the Shelter at (804) 580-6156.
Additionally, we now have a new, easy, and exciting way to make a donation on behalf of the dogs and cats at our Shelter. Both Amazon and Chewy now have a Gift Registry specifically created for the Northumberland County Animal Shelter. These are items that are needed for both dogs and cats which will enhance their living conditions, health, and overall enjoyment while residing in our Shelter.
It is VERY simple to use. Simply click on the Donate thru Amazon button or the Donate thru Chewy button at the top of the page and begin shopping. Select the items you wish to give to the Shelter. It's that easy!! We will modify this Gift Registry from time to time as animal needs change.

Pam
Hello, I'm Pam! Life here at the shelter is quite an adventure. I love to play, chasing after toys and pouncing on them with all my might. I'm quite the social butterfly, too. I adore meeting new people and making friends. I'm not just playful, I'm also a purring machine. I love to snuggle and show my affection. I'm still a kitten, so there's so much more I have yet to explore and learn. I'm looking for a forever home where I can grow, play, and love. Won't you consider adopting me? I promise to fill your life with fun, laughter, and lots of purrs.

Leroy
Hi! My name is Leroy
I used to live in a nice place with my buddy Howie and our owner was a very nice lady we loved very much. Sadly, she was in an accident and had to go live with her Mother. Her Mother is not a cat person and brought us to the Shelter to be adopted by someone who appreciates cat personalities and behaviors. So, perhaps you can understand why I’ve had a hard time adjusting. I’m coming into my own now as I appreciate affection and want to love on you if you’ll let me. If you have the time and patience to work with me, I will be your loving companion and bring both of us years of love and joy. I hope you will make an appointment to visit me.

Dolly Mae
Hi there - My name is Dolly Mae
I am a shy girl and rightfully so. I was one of the kittens those horrible people threw out of a car window while driving. Fortunately, they were seen and reported and the gracious Northumberland Shelter folks went in search of us. They found and rescued me and have worked with me ever since to help me relearn to trust humans. I have made a lot of progress including how to walk normally. The Shelter folks are comfortable I will do well with the right adopter.
I hope my future owners will have patience and help me grow into the kitty I was always meant to be. I would probably benefit from having another kitten go home with me so they can show me the ropes and help build my confidence. If you adopt two of us together, there is only one charge. The Shelter has several precious kittens to choose from and I hope you will make an appointment and come to see me very soon.

Hi!! My name is Mitzie Mae
I entered the Shelter around the same time as Dolly Mae and Amos Jack. We are all small but growing fast. A nice lady out horseback riding saw me in a ditch, rescued me, and then brought me to the Northumberland Shelter. Amos Jack was here when I arrived and we have become great playmates. We engage Dolly Mae when she is feeling up to it. We have tons of fun together and can quickly make you fall in love with us. Please consider adoption – we will bring joy, and laughter and be your loyal companion for our lifetime. We’re waiting to meet you!!!
