They can be adopted separately, as a pair, or—best of all—as a trio if you’re ready for triple the love and fun!<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a social, affectionate, and endlessly entertaining companion, Uncle Rico is ready to win your heart (and probably steal your snacks)!<br/><br/>Fill out a no obligation cat adoption application today at humaneloudoun.org/adopt/cat-adoption-application/

Humane Society of Loudoun County's Adoption Policy
We want to make sure each adoption is successful and that each animal is adopted into a family that is the right fit for everyone. All our animals are fully vetted and are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. For our adoption process we will arrange a meet and greet between potential adopters and the animal after an application is submitted. We ask for 2 personal references, check to make sure current animals are vaccinated then we schedule a virtual interview, which is an interview to discuss how to intergrate the new arrival into the household, food, equipment, etc. We do not have many requirements except that all cats/kittens be kept Indoors only, that they not be declawed, and that if any adoption does not work out for any reason, no matter how long it has been, that the animal be returned to us. Our adoption fee for cats and kittens is $150. Our dog and puppy adoption fee is $300. Check out our upcoming events here: http://www.humaneloudoun.org/events1.aspx
