Fancy Cats Rescue Team

Fancy Cats Rescue Team was founded to provide the community a "safety net" for cats and kittens that are abused and abandoned, or added to the euthanasia list at the shelters that we are currently participating with. We are a 501 (c) (3) Nonprofit Organization and participate with the United Way/CFC #8929. The goal is to have no kill shelters in place. Education and responsible pet ownership are the foundation of our organization. Our program provides literature, counseling, referral services and educational resources to families and individuals needing guidance. Teaching people responsible pet guardianship by spay and neutering their pets, behavioral modification and health concerns. We also provide a mentoring environment for our youth volunteers where they can learn the rewards of community service while caring for animals that need their gentle, loving kindness. They also interact with the community providing self-confidence and the ability to interact with a variety of cultures and diverse backgrounds. Once an animal is received into our program, they remain with us until a safe, appropriate home is found. They are never euthanized based on their age or space limitations. They are given appropriate medical care, immunizations, spays or neuters and endless hours of tender, loving care. We are an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We are funded by community donations, 91% goes toward the care and well being of our animals. Our adoption fees help offset our veterinary bills.

Meet Amelia - FEE SPONSORED

Amelia (9yrs) is going to be a bit reclusive/shy to start but once she gets to know you she will reward you with cuddles!  She gets along with other cats ok, usually prefers to keep to herself and chill out.   [Ameila shares a cage with and was in the same home as Sebastian (4yrs), they could go together, but they would be okay separating as well] Sebastian gets along with dogs and cats, and likes to talk. He is really smart and knows how to open doors. He is really playful and loves to play and run around, then he is ready to be super cuddly and sweet  See more of our Springfield, VA adoption center cats at @SpringfieldFancyCats on Instagram! In order to assist with social distancing and to reduce risks of spreading COVID-19, we're asking that anyone interested in one of the cats at the Springfield Petsmart please complete our application online. We'll then reach out to you to share more information about the cat, ask any relevant questions, and make an appointment to meet the cat in person. Walk-ins to adoption fairs are welcome, but appointments will take priority.

Adoption Process
Our adopters fill out an application that screens for problems that may be detrimental to our cats and kittens. Once the adopter is approved we provide veterinary referrals which help with low cost spays or neuters for the kittens that are too young at the time of adoption. We are always available to help with behavioral issues that arise. We provide numerous information sheets in our adoption folders, plus the medical background of each cat. The only fees involved with our program are adoption fees that offset our veterinary bills.

Look for other cats for adoption!
