Capital Cats

News & Adoption Events
We hold our Adoption Fair on Sundays, and now some Saturdays as well, in Washington DC. Adoption location information listed below. For more information on each cat listed, contact the foster home listed at the end of each cat's description.
Who We Are
Capital Cats is a group of foster households on the Capitol Hill area of Washington, DC. We primarily assist cats (and kittens) who have lived among people at some point in their lives, but then were abandoned and struggled to survive. These kitties are so thankful to find someone who will care for them again, see that they are spayed/neutered and vaccinated, and then work hard to match them up with the perfect permanent home. In the meantime, they get to be spoiled rotten in our foster homes!!
Adopting a friend
We generally have a wide selection of cats and kittens for placement. Please note that our cats must live indoors and cannot be declawed; also, we only place young kittens in pairs or into homes with another young cat. Call the contact person listed for each cat for additional information, or come to one of our weekly adoption outreaches described below.
Come Visit Us!
EVERY SUNDAY EACH MONTH - we show our cats from noon to 3 most Sundays at Chateau-Animaux, 733 Eighth Street, SE, on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS THE NEW LOCATION, JUST 2 BLOCKS DOWN FROM THEIR ORIGINAL BUILDING. You may want to visit one of the fine restaurants on Eighth Street before or after you visit us, and there is a nationally recognized flea market 3 blocks away at historic Eastern Market. Parking is available in the neighborhood and especially around the corner on I St. Or the Eastern Market metro is a few blocks away.

The Petco is located in the shopping center on the east side of the street, on the lower level - at the Cleveland Park metro stop, 3505 Connecticut Ave, NW. We will bring several of our cats and kittens between the hours of noon and 3pm. Please contact us if there is a specific cat that you want to meet, space is limited so we can bring only certain cats.
