[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you tried going to a shelter? Particularly one that is NOT a no kill shelter? There are too many animals that need homes to be so picky about it. Rescue orgs that don’t have to take in every cat and then figure out what to do with them can be unrealistic.[/quote] I would love to try this. But when I’ve contacted local shelters in Fairfax, they’ve referred me to cats housed at private rescue organizations. One of which wanted ongoing home visits plus a friend to sign a contract agreeing to take the cat if we should suddenly, I don’t know, die or dematerialize? The other wouldn’t adopt out any singleton cats. Which shelter did you visit? Would love to hear about happy adoption experiences....this is so depressing. [/quote] Go to Humane Rescue Alliance in DC. They are full of cats right now, and will not put you through the wringer. They are a really good shelter that does heroic work for the community's animals.[/quote]
