Freckles Tortoiseshell Culpeper, VA

All our cats are adopted as inside only cats. We do not adopt single kittens, unless you already have another playful cat or you can adopt another kitten/cat from us or another rescue!

One of Georgina’s little princesses, Freckles, takes after her mother, certainly not cool and calm as momma, but Freckles is a 6 mos old kitten! Her Ladyship is a royal rogue; very playful, curious, active and so pretty. Freckles because she has these little dots and dashes all over her face, and they are just individual hairs. She loves to eat, play-fight with her sister, Pie Chart, get cleaned by her mom, Georgina, and BIG TIME MOST FAVORITE THING-play with toys you might wiggle. The way to her heart is through play, toys and Churos. The foster mom will sit on the floor and the usually “too busy for you” Freckles will be all over her – playing and licking the Churos. She’ll never rule, way too self-absorbed and only cares about her pleasures and too athletic, very sports-minded. Very fun little kitten girl, absolutely needs a kitten playmate or her mom. VERY BONDED to her Momma, Georgina. Seen frequently together and Georgina still lets her nurse on her! Not that there is any sustenance to be had but demonstrates how close they are. We really want them to go together. That’s how she’ll be the happiest. She does not like to be picked up, you can pick her up but she is a wriggler, and has lots of places to go and see. Funny little Freckle Face.
All our kitties are fully vetted; spayed/neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, utd on rabies, distemper vax, dewormed, deflead and microchipped.

If you are interested in meeting these kittens please submit an application by clicking this link; https://www.culpeperhumane.org/adoptions/application/

Once submitted, the vet reference you provided will be contacted (if no vet, please provide 3 personal references, may be family and friends if they have a cat that you interact with), and our Director of Adoptions will schedule a phone interview with you. If approved, you will be contacted by our Foster Coordinator for a (virtual) home visit. If approved, the foster parent is notified to contact you to discuss the kitten(s) and arrange the logistics for a visit. If both parties are committed to moving forward with an adoption, the foster parent is empowered to do same day adoption. Our rescue group does not have a brick and mortar facility, all our animals are home fostered in our foster volunteer’s homes. You will be visiting a private residence. The application does not oblige you to adopt, nor does the visitation; the application gives us more information to help ensure an appropriate, suitable and good match.

Not first come, first served, but the best possible match made.

Our policy is that we always take our animals back should it prove to be a less than perfect match, or if you are unable or unwilling to care for the animal any longer. We just don't want the animal to go back into the system. It is also our policy NOT to adopt to families with intact dogs or cats (unless there is a medical reason for not doing so). This is an effort to educate and support our national spay/neuter efforts to reduce the unwanted pet population.

We DO adopt to DC residents, parts of Maryland and Virginia. Occasionally we will adopt far from our epi-center, but will request your local humane society to do a home visit for us and act as our safety net.

Thank you for considering an unwanted and abandoned kitty, and being part of the rescue efforts.
