8. Zoey and Ellie
Zoey and Ellie are CVRR alumni who are currently living with their owner. CVRR is listing these cats as a COURTESY to the actual owner. They are not currently in the care of CVRR, and CVRR makes no representations or guarantees for its behavior, demeanor, or health assessment. All information listed has been given by the cat's current owner and should be verified by any interested potential adopter.
Ellie and Zoey are sweet 8-year-old sisters who have spent their lives together, and we're hoping to find a special home where they can stay that way.
Although they're sisters, these two beautiful gray tabbies each have a personality all her own.
Read more about Zoey and Ellie
Ellie is the more outgoing of the pair. She's a short-haired, light gray tabby who enjoys attention and is usually the first to venture out and say hello once visitors arrive. She loves being petted—and she'll even roll over and invite you to rub her belly! Ellie is sweet, affectionate, and happy to soak up some love from her people.
Zoey is Ellie's long-haired sister, a gorgeous dark gray tabby with adorable white feet. She's the more cautious of the two and likes to take her time deciding that a new person is safe. She may hide when someone new arrives, but patience is the key to this sweet girl's heart. Once she's comfortable, Zoey enjoys being petted and brushed and has a gentle, loving nature.
Together, Ellie and Zoey enjoy a pretty peaceful lifestyle. They're indoor-only, litter trained, and perfectly content spending much of their day napping, with a little playtime sprinkled in. They've successfully lived with a dog in the past and can also do well with other cats who aren't aggressive.
Most importantly, Ellie and Zoey have been together since they were adopted through CVRR in 2018. After eight years side by side, we would very much like to find a home where these sisters can remain together.
For someone willing to give Zoey a little time to settle in, you'll get the best of both worlds: Ellie's welcoming sweetness and Zoey's quietly earned affection. And you'll have the joy of knowing that two sisters who have always had one another get to stay together for the next chapter of their lives.

11. Gray Mama
What if the best years of her life are still waiting for her?
Meet Grey Mama.
For years, she quietly survived outside as part of a small colony of just five cats. She was trapped, spayed through TNR in 2019, and returned to the only life she had ever known.
Recently, Grey Mama had to have one of her eyes removed. But something unexpected happened during her recovery...
She fell in love with being an indoor cat. ❤️
Instead of wanting to go back outside, she has embraced the comfort, safety, and love of a home. She's an absolute LOVE BUG who wants nothing more than to be close to her people.
Read more about Gray Mama
She's estimated to be 8–10 years old, and during surgery we discovered she doesn't have many teeth! That's why her little tongue is always sticking out. We always thought her adorable "blep" was just part of her personality. Now we know it's one more thing that makes her uniquely perfect.
Grey Mama has spent so much of her life simply surviving. We'd love for the rest of her life to be about living! Soft beds, gentle hands, full bowls, and knowing what it feels like to truly belong.
Could you be the one to give this sweet one-eyed girl the happily-ever-after she has waited so many years for?
Please message us if you'd like to learn more or think you might be the family Grey Mama has been waiting for. Even if you can't adopt, sharing her story could be the reason she gets the second chance she deserves. ❤️

14. Harley, Marley & Bobbie
Meet the sweetest trio of cats you'll ever know..... Pebbles, Marley & Harley...... These cats were taken in by a loving neighbor once their original caretaker passed away and left them without a home. He has cared for them for the last 2 years but know they deserve much more than he can offer them himself. Each of the kitties is UTD with all vetting, spayed / neutered, and recently had dental work as well! Our best guess is they are in the 4-6 year old range. We would love for at least 2 of them to be adopted together, IF possible, since they have always lived together.
Read more about Harley, Marley & Bobbie
Specific bios on each kitty is listed below, for more personality info.
Pebbles is a typical tuxedo cat - acts like (he) doesn't care about you, but one touch and he loses his composure and becomes a purring, drooling, puddle of feline emotions. Pebbles is not acclimated to indoor living, he is a registered porch cat and will guard the porch and wait patiently for food and attention from humans. He's been known to teleport across the yard and catch a rat....not sure how he moves so quickly - he's an apex predator under that sweet, handsome exterior. Pebbles doesn't worry about dogs, cats, or humans, or anything but attention and food. In two years of foster care, Pebbles has never scratched, shown aggression, or exhibited any bad behavior towards humans, dogs or cats. A little aloof at first, but once touched, Pebbles loses composure and succumbs to his desire to be loved.
Marley (aka Bob/Bobbie) suffered an attack or accident that took off most of her tail. After months of being super shy, she finally accepted human touch and was asleep in a lap within minutes after the first pets. Marley is more comfortable indoors than outdoors and loves a warm lap and loving attention. Sweet, soulful, expressive eyes that speak to you when she looks at you. She's smart and independent but a little entitled and expects a certain level of privilege as a lion in your living room. Marley can open doors, hide in cabinets, and steal your husband. In a year of fostering Marley, there has never been a scratch, hiss, or any type of aggression with humans, cats, or dogs. Marley stands her ground with dogs and tends to diffuse situations before they escalate.
Harley is a cloud of a cat that will melt you with his big blue eyes. He is a Class A, internationally certified lap cat. Harley asks permission with a gentle paw tap on your leg before landing lightly in your lap and getting comfortable. A leopard at heart, this cat lies around all day, draped over railings or chairs like a melted candle. He loves being brushed, loves being stroked, and just assumes that all humans would appreciate a cat in their lap and he is usually not wrong. Everyone that visits loves Harley! Not afraid of dogs or aggressive with other cats. In two years of fostering Harley, there have never been any incidents of aggression, scratching, hissing, or anything other than love and gentle kindness. When Harley was first rescued, he was severely matted due to a bad tooth that kept him from grooming himself. His caretaker was able to shave his whole belly, butt, and tail without even an effort to get away. This sweet, polite being would love to be in your house and sit in your lap or keep your chair warm while you're away.
These cats are being listed as a Courtesy to the original owner, they are NOT in CVRR Care. CVRR assisted with their vetting care, so we can attest to them being up to date. All other information should be verified in person, if interested in considering adoption.

Silvia is a very special girl. She and her sisters were very sick when they came into our care as tiny babies, and their foster mom fought to keep them alive.

Many cats do so much better in pairs, especially kittens, which is why we offer a reduced adoption fee of $25 for the second cat (or more!).

Adopting a cat in Fincastle
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
