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.

Mouse
Hi! My name is Mouse and I have met all the Shelter requirements for me to go home with you. I just turned one year old and need a special family to spoil me and shower me with love and attention. I may come across as being a little shy, but having my head rubbed and giving you lots of head bumps will let you know I’m ready for attention. Please come meet me and let me sit in your lap and convince you I’m the one you should take home. I promise you won’t regret it.

Kennedy
Hello, I'm Kennedy! I just celebrated my first birthday. I'm young, energetic, and love to play. I've got an independent streak, but I'm also quite smart. I'm quite the explorer, always curious about my surroundings. I have a knack for turning ordinary items into extraordinary playthings. I'm not just all fun and games though, I value my alone time too. I'm the perfect mix of playful and independent. I believe I would make a wonderful addition to any home that values a cat with a strong personality and a zest for life.

Tex
Hi, my name is Tex
I ended up in someone’s backyard and this nice lady rescued me when I was quite young. She took good care of me but her landlord said cats were not allowed so I had to go. Meanwhile, I’m learning lots of cool things in this very nice environment. I’m inside 100% of the time which I prefer. It is safe from so many dangerous things and critters. Nice people come play with me and feed me yummy food. There are others here like me but one by one they leave for their forever home. That’s what I want most, to belong to someone who can care for me permanently. I love hugs, kisses and am quite adventurous at playtime. Please consider giving me a home. I want you to be the landlord that really wants me and will love and take care of me. In return, I promise you love, lots of laughs, and total commitment.
