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.

I'm quite the clever girl, always quick to figure out the jingling toy or the elusive red dot. Cuddling? It's my favorite pastime! I love nothing more than curling up in a warm lap, purring contentedly. I'm more than just a pet, I'm a companion, a confidante, a playmate. I'll bring joy, laughter, and love to your home. Adopt me and let's create beautiful memories together!
P.S. I have 2 siblings,Tigger and Midas. The Shelter offers 2 for 1 and how awesome would it be to take 2 or all 3 of us?? Please consider…..
