To provide better service to potential adopters, adoption hours and shelter visits are now by appointment, Monday through Saturday.   Call the shelter at (804) 580-6156 to make an appointment or ask 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 shelter@northumberlandsheriff.net 

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.

Jayne

Jayne is a seven-month old gray and white, slightly built kitten with a great personality. She enjoys playing with almost anything -- toys, brooms while you're cleaning, back scratchers, etc.  Her antics often bring a smile and/or chuckle to the volunteers who take care of her.
NOTE: Jayne will be scheduled for spaying soon which will be paid for courtesy of the  Animal Welfare League.

Prissy, Linnie, & Claude

We have nine-week-old kittens ready to melt your heart.  One male and two females. Claude is a Tuxedo with an all white stripe down his belly. His twin sister's white stripe has a break in hers. Other than that...hard to find any differences. All are playful, cuddly, and typical kittens. NOTE: When of age, their spaying/neutering will be paid for, courtesy of the  Animal Welfare League.
