Allie Domestic Medium Hair Washington, DC

Female, DMH, approx 1 years old

As her foster says, Allie is a very lovable weirdo! She is the best possible mix of independent and cuddly - when she wants to nap she heads off to her cave bed, but when the foster settles on the couch, Allie will snuggle up with her back up against a nice warm leg.

Allie was born with short legs and deformed feet resulting in very painful movement. She has recently been through two orthopedic surgeries that vastly improved Allie's quality of life and comfort level. Due to her physical challenges, Allie is not a strong climber or jumper. The good news is, she can hop onto your couch or bed but is unlikely to jump on your countertops! Allie is a ZERO chaos kitty and one who will reward you with loving companionship... after she warms up to you. She's been through a very rough start life and had to grow up fast. Now that she's safe and out of pain from her feet, her easy, loving self is starting to shine through.

Allie is more of a people person than a cat person, and would probably do best as an only pet. Allie will need additional care for her structural issues and may possibly need routine pain killers. Allie will need to maintain a relatively trim figure to prevent joint issues in the future. If you are an experienced cat parent looking to do a good deed and be rewarded with gratitude and companionship, Allie may be the perfect rescue for you. With time, love, and some crunch cat treats, this lovely girl will be a treasure. Allie needs a special ally--is that you? Apply today to meet Allie!

If you are interested in meeting a dog or cat, we require an adoption application. If the animal has "HAS APPLICATION" listed, they are still available to receive additional applications but also may be in the process of being adopted soon.

City Dogs Rescue & City Kitties is a foster based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDR&CK has a thorough adoption process in order to find the best possible fit for each of our dogs and cats (we do not operate under a first-come, first served model).

Upon accepting a new cat or dog into the organization, we provide a basic vet visit that includes necessary vaccinations, disease screenings, deworming, microchips, and spay/neuter (unless specified). We do not provide a comprehensive medical exam prior to adoption. As a result, sickness, injury, and disability may exist unbeknownst to CDR&CK. City Dogs Rescue & City Kitties is not responsible for payment of any vet care, including known and unknown medical conditions once a cat or dog is adopted from us.

Cat specific: Rabies, FVRCP, Feline Leukemia vaccines. They are tested for FIV and FeLV, when age appropriate, but not when born to a negative mother in foster care.

Most cats and dogs will have a house training accident in the initial days in their new home and we cannot guarantee any pet is housebroken or crate trained.

We also update our Facebook page daily with new cats and dogs.
