River Domestic Short Hair Washington, DC

DSH, Male 2 years old

Personality: independent, lapcat, snuggly, talkative

River is a cute little grey guy who is playful, independent, and cuddly when he wants to be (or when you pick him up)! He is super snuggly and will be vocal when he does not get the attention he craves. Pick River up or give him a gentle belly scratch and he will sweetly cling to your hand with both of his paws!


River lives with two resident cats and interacts well with them, but would be fine as a solo cat as well. He is very respectful of the resident cats and has no issues playing and eating together. When not seeking scritches, River loves chasing anything on a string that resembles prey, especially his automatic butterfly toy! He is a perfect gentleman with his litterbox and a good eater too.


Don't wait to make River a part of your family - apply to adopt this cutie today!

City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. CDCK has a thorough adoption process 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 CDCKR.


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 vetting: Rabies, FVRCP, Feline Leukemia vaccines, as age appropriate. Cats are tested for FIV and FeLV, when age appropriate, but not when born to a FELV/FIV negative mother in foster care.


The kittens have age-appropriate vetting to date, which includes a veterinary exam, deworming, microchip, and the first FVRCP vaccine. An adopter will need to agree to cover costs of spay/neuter when he/she is age-appropriate (usually 16-20 weeks) and will need to continue his/her kitten vaccines (including rabies) as he/she grows older. Kittens under 12 weeks of age must be adopted in pairs or to a home with friendly resident feline. They will not be considered as singles.
