4. Angel
Meet Angel and her son, Gabriel! They originally came to us 5 years ago from death row, were adopted and now are being returned, through no fault of their own. Angel is an absolute stunner of an 7-year-old cat with luxurious, long white hair. Her 5-year-old son, Gabriel, formerly known as Angelo) is her literal "mini-me"—matching his mama's gorgeous looks and charm. These two have an incredible bond that has kept them side-by-side through thick and thin, and they are looking for a family to love them together. Through absolutely no fault of their own, they are being returned to rescue and are officially searching for a fresh start.Here is a little glimpse into their fun-filled daily routine: The Olympic Games: Don't let their regal looks fool you; these two love a good game of tag, leapfrog, and chasing each other around the house! Bird Watching & Board Games: They are professional couch potatoes who love staring out the window at real birds.

They also have a favorite dangling, chirping toy bird that they love to hunt. The Splash Zone: Gabe has a hilarious obsession with water! He treats the water bowl like a personal swimming pool, splashing around and batting at the stream if you refill it slowly. Litter Box VIP: Gabe insists on luxury. Whenever the litter box gets freshly scooped, he silently waits nearby to ensure he claims the very first turn. Polite Dining: They are excellent communicators and will chat with each other to take turns at the food bowl. When they want your attention, they will happily rub against your legs, hop onto your chair or bed, and ask for pets. Angel can be a little aloof and independent at times, but she will melt your heart when she leans in for sweet nose kisses.The Ideal Forever Home:They are looking for a low-activity, quiet environment. They would do wonderfully with a senior, a single person, a couple, or a family with children over 12 years old (no young kids, please).The Perks & Vetting: Bonus: Their former adopters are generously sending them off with a 6-month supply of meals from Chewy.com! Health: Both are fully vetted—spayed/neutered, up-to-date on rabies and FVRCP vaccines, combo-tested negative, and microchipped with a lifetime registration. Adoption Fee: A special, combined low fee of $150 for both cats.

11. Oscar
We found Oscar (the Grouch) and four of his baby friends Oscar, Abby, Zoe, and Snuffleupagus at the local waste transfer station. They were hiding under industrial trash compactors.
We feared they would be “compacted”. After hours, our intrepid volunteer spent a lovely cold Friday night trapping them. Originally she was looking for 2 kittens but it turned out to be FIVE!!
Read more about Oscar
Meet Oscar, a handsome white-and-orange boy with a little bit of a grumpy exterior and a soft spot for affection. He may take a little time to warm up to new people, but once he feels comfortable, he absolutely loves being petted. Oscar is a reminder that you shouldn't judge a book by its cover—or a kitten by his resting grumpy face! Give him a little patience, and you may just discover your new favorite cuddle buddy.

16. Rusty
Meet Rusty! Rusty is a fun-loving, playful one-year-old girl with plenty of personality. She loves to have fun and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a young cat with an energetic, entertaining spirit.Shelter life has been pretty stressful for Rusty, and she hasn’t shown us much of her cuddly side while she’s here. But we suspect there’s much more to this sweet girl than she’s able to show in a busy shelter environment. Once she has a quiet, loving home of her own, she may feel safe enough to relax and let her affectionate side shine.What Rusty really needs is a chance to leave the stress of the shelter behind and settle into a home where she can be herself. If you’re looking for a playful young cat who just needs someone to give her a little time, patience, and love, Rusty may be your girl.
17. Thumbelina
Thumbelina is a queen sized sweetheart wrapped in a gorgeous tabby coat. She’s an independent girl, but once she decides you’re part of her circle, she leans in with the softest affection. She’s the kind of cat who enjoys having her own space yet will happily trot over for pets, chin scratches, and quiet companionship. Thumbelina has a gentle charm that makes her easy to love. She’s curious without being chaotic, calm without being aloof, and affectionate without being clingy. She’d thrive in a home that appreciates a cat who knows her own mind but still melts for attention. With her warm personality and steady nature, she’s ready to become someone’s perfect everyday companion. She likes to do things at her own pace and has plenty of personality to share. She’s ready to find her forever family!
18. Taz
Taz is a 6-month-old kitten with a gentle soul and a sweetheart. He may be a little shy when meeting new people, but once he feels safe, his loving personality begins to shine.

Faye is a gentle and thoughtful little kitten who prefers to take her time getting to know new people and surroundings. While she can be a bit shy at first, her sweet personality begins to shine once she feels safe and comfortable. With patience and a calm environment, Faye blossoms into a loving companion who enjoys quiet affection and playful moments with her siblings. She takes comfort in the company of other cats, and we believe she would thrive in a home with a feline friend to help her continue building confidence.

25. Bingo
Meet Bingo! Bingo has a big personality in a little kitten body. Bingo is a confident girl who knows what she wants: to play, to explore, and to get pets, on her terms. Bingo is high energy and doesn't appreciate being held, because how can you run around and play while being held?! When she decides it's time for her human to get attention, she will jump up on their shoulder and give a kiss or two. Bingo loves chasing the laser pointer, the wand toy, and her brothers. She is litterbox trained and has done well with her foster's toddler, but would likely do best with older kids who respect her space and don't want to pick her up all the time. Bingo would also likely do well with another playful cat in the home since she prefers kitty playmates over human playmates.

Why adopt an adult cat in Harrisonburg
An adult cat's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are used to family life.
Grown cats are calmer and need less supervision than kittens, which suits people who work long hours or have young children.
