Go to Patriot Pawsabilities in Fairfax. Or look at hart90.org -- HART has cat adoptions every Sunday at the Sterling PetsMart.

It isn't kitten season.
The one thing to note is if you get a kitten, they're likely going to ask that you take 2. For what it's worth I adopted about an 18 month old cat solo and then ended up later getting a kitten for her because she didn't do well as a solo cat (my previous cat had been old already when adopted and preferred being solo).
If you adopt a blue Russian however, you want it to be a solo cat because that's their preference.

I didnt know "creamsicle" was commonly used to describe the orange/white cats. I had one growing up and we adopted her and her name was "Creamsicle" but I misheard and renamed her "Dreamsicle". Lived to be 19.
