Scroll down to see kittens and cats currently available for adoption through our foster- adoption program
MCPAW is excited to partner with MC C3 (Montgomery County Community Cat Coalition) in a foster/adoption program. All of our cats and kittens are currently in foster homes and are fully vetted. If you would like to meet them, please fill out this adoption interest application.
In this program, MCPAW donors contribute the resources that enable MCPAW and MCC3 volunteers to transport the cats to and from veterinary clinics for MCPAW-funded spay/neuter services, vaccinations, de-worming, microchipping, combo testing, and, if needed, urgent veterinary treatment. Then, experienced cat foster parents provide the love, socialization, healthy foods, and enrichment that are critical in preparation for a healthy start to life and for successful adoption. Our expert volunteers also coach the adopters of these cats and kittens on how to best help them adjust to their new homes and lifestyles, and they are available for additional guidance to these pet parents in the future.
We view this as a critical service that we can – and MUST – provide due to shelters in our community (and across the country) being overwhelmed with cats and kittens, most not spayed or neutered. Additionally, this program provides a special human touch and the one-on-one attention that shelters struggling with capacity issues and staffing shortages simply cannot provide.
Although our initial goal is to raise enough funding for spaying and neutering 100 of these kittens, the need will far exceed that number and we ask for your continued support through additional donations and/or through making friends, family members, and colleagues aware of the support needed for this wonderful, impact-driven program.
If you would like to volunteer to assist with this program, please fill out this Volunteer application or email vickipthomas@gmail.com or call 301-437-6189.
CURRENT CATS & KITTENS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
ONYX
ONYX IN THE SNOW
Sleek as midnight’s velvet glow,
Born where winter winds do blow.
Found amidst the snow’s embrace,
A gentle soul, a purring grace.
Eyes that gleam like stars on high,
A playful leap, a curious sigh.
Elegant dancer, shadow’s art,
With every step, you steal the heart.
Snow may chill, but you are warm,
A spirit bright, a perfect form.
Onyx, treasure, winter’s gift,
You gave a home its sweetest lift.
May love surround you every day,
With friends to chase and games to play.
For you are more than just a kitty,
You are magic, sleek and pretty.
Onyx is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and combo-tested. If you would like to meet this adorable 11-month-old girl, please fill out an adoption interest form: https://mcc3.wufoo.com/forms/r1nt6phc1x2444f/
Calvin the Boogie Cat
Oh, Calvin, sweet and playful sprite,
A bundle of joy, a heart so light.
Nine months of charm, a tiny meow,
Yet a purr that could soothe any furrowed brow.
With a foster brother, your partner in play,
Together you brighten the longest day.
From string toys to lasers, a joyful chase,
Through tunnels you dart, a blur of grace.
Milk rings, springs, treasures you find,
Carried in jaws of a curious mind.
Quiet companion, a shadow near,
Flopping beside those you hold dear.
Crowds may daunt, but treats win the fight,
A Churu, your bridge to hearts alight.
Loyal and loving, a friend for all time,
Calvin, dear Boogie, a feline sublime.
Calvin (aka Boogie!) is a nine-month-old sweet and playful kitty. He is very submissive with his older foster cat brother and loving. They play together and spend nights sleeping together with their foster mom in bed. Calvin has a great purr but a tiny meow. He is generally a quiet companion. Although he’s not a fan of crowds, once he knows you and he gets a Churu treat, he’ll be your buddy forever. He loves to play, running through a tunnel for a string toy, yep, he’s in, laser pointer, yep let’s go! His favorite toys are plastic springs, milk rings and most things he can carry around in his mouth. He likes to be close to his people and will flop right next to you. He has an interesting kink in his very long tail but couldn’t care less! Calvin is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and combo-tested.

DANIELLA is an adorable poser about 4 years old who is obviously not shy around the camera! She is sweet and quiet and loves to be petted. She is vaccinated, spayed, combo-tested and microchipped. If you would like to meet her, please fill out an

PRINCE is a very special boy. He was found outside with a shattered back leg. Through lots of vet care he has recovered and is now ready for his furrever home. Throughout his ordeal he remained sweet, loving and gentle. What also makes him special is that he is FIV+, which experienced cat owners know is not a big deal. Having FIV means that his immune system is a little compromised, and is only transmissable through blood. Prince is now living in his foster home with Pat the Cat (PC), another special FIV+ cat. As you can see by the pictures, PC and Prince are now buddies. It would be wonderful if they could be adopted together but they can also be adopted separately. If you would like to meet Prince and or PC, please fill out an
interest application
PAT THE CAT (PC) is also a very special boy. He was found outside lethargic, dehydrated and unresponsive. With vet care and love from MCPAW and MC C3 volunteers, has recovered and is now also ready for his furrever home. Like Prince, PC is gentle and loving and FIV+. Having FIV means that his immune system is a little compromised. It is only transmissable through blood. As you can see by the pictures, PC and Prince are now buddies. It would be wonderful if they could be adopted together but they can also be adopted separately. If you would like to meet PC and or Prince, please fill out an

PERIWINKLE is an adorable two-year-old girl who was found outside. She is very much an inside girl though! She likes to sit near you, purr, and watch TV and loves to play with wand toys! She is very vocal and loves her churu -- which is great if she needs medicines! She get along fine with her foster mom's small dog, but prefers to be an
only cat. She has great litterbox manners and is a good eater! She is spayed, up-to-date on her vaccines, combo-tested, and microchipped. If you would like to meet her, please fill out an fill out an

SHADOW and SLATE are two adorable, active teenage kittens! Slate has a beautiful dark gray striped coat, with soft white fur on his belly and legs. Initially, Slate is initally a little shy, but is very food motivated: mealtimes are his favorite time of the day. He also loves to play! Shadow is a beautiful girl cat, with allover stripes in shades of gray, even on her belly. She’s equally interested in playing and eating. While she enjoys chasing the feather toy, she is also content to just relax. Both are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and negative for FeLV and FIV.
MAMITA, ASHLEY and BRIT were found outside. They have been living the good life inside ever since, but are still a little wary of people. They love to play and look out the window, but need a special family with a lot of patience and love. They might also be happy indoor/outdoor working cats in the right situation. They are spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and negative for FeLV and FIV. If you would like to meet them, please fill out an fill out an
