These cats come to us from a wide variety of situations. We try to get to know these cats, focusing on their health and their behavior, match them with families that are comfortable with any issues that they may have, and then transport them home. SCRC has a shelter facility located in Locust Dale, VA, about 1.5 hours southwest of Washington DC, and foster homes throughout the Eastern US, from Florida to New Hampshire to Indiana & Tennessee. The shelter is open by appointment only, Monday through Sunday. Because our turnover of cats is so great, it's necessary to complete the adoption paperwork prior to coming to adopt, as we can't hold cats for folks unless they are approved adopters. Select How to Adopt on the left for adoption details. Our Adoption Program is based on the concept of your "Saving a Life", and our job is to help you be successful in that endeavour. Our application process is a bit more involved than some, partially because we are internet based and rarely get to meet our adopters in person, but also because we feel that detailed exchanges between the applicant, the foster parent and the interviewer are necessary in order to make sure that you get a cat that will work in your home and the cat gets a home that will work forever.
Lifetime relationships are not built overnight, and we pride ourselves in open, honest and frequent communication designed to ensure everyone is happy and the match between adoptive home and adopted cat is a solid one. Due to the background of the type of cat we usually see, we are looking for adopters who understand that most of these cats come with some baggage. Whether they are medically compromised or behaviorally challenged, these are some of the most wonderfully appreciative cats at being given a second chance. Our fosters are skilled at identifying many medical and behavioral issues, and we share everything we know with you. We ask you, as an adopter, to partner with us in helping provide these cats with the opportunity to recover, learn, and blossom in your home. If you are looking for a "No issues" cat, Rescue may not be the best avenue for you. We have lots of post adoption mentoring and a family of volunteers behind every adoption. With over 9,000 happy adopters and cats behind us as well as over 15 years of experience, we hope you'll join the Siamese Rescue family by opening your heart and home to a needy Siamese.

Alley Cat Rescue is an organization in Mount Rainier, Maryland, that works to protect cats through rescue, rehabilitation and adoption locally in the states of Maryland, Virginia, and the Washington, D.C., area using trap-neuter-return for feral cats;
as well as providing national and international resources for cat caretakers. The organization was founded in 1997, when President Louise Holton moved on after co-founding Alley Cat Allies. The organization offers low cost spay and neuter services for cats to low income residents of the states of Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.[5] On May 27, 2010, veterinarians across the U.S. were encouraged to participate in free or low-cost clinics for feral cats. Over 150 vets participated, including those in Canada and South Africa.[6] The event has continued each year, most recently on May 27, 2014. The organization offers trap-neuter-return services for community cats (feral and stray) in their locations of Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C., including a feral cat clinic with low cost spay and neuter services by appointment. Adoption services are offered for about 250 cats and kittens a year, in a store-front location in Silver Spring, Maryland. "We find homes for abandoned, stray, and relinquished cats;
we also socialize feral kittens and work to find barn homes for feral cats." Online resources are offered about feral cats, alternatives to declawing, and cat health,[10] and information on advocating for cats.[11] The organization maintains a list of "Cat Action Teams" who work to help feral cats all over the U.S.[12] In 2007, the organization helped organize a free spay-neuter clinic for cats and dogs in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. In 2008, the organization gathered 12,000 signatures prior to the Beijing Winter Olympics and sent the petitions to the International Olympic Committee to encourage them not to host the games in countries that “clean their streets” of stray animals in preparation for the Olympics. The organization is also working to help save the African wildcat, and to help feral cats in South Africa. The organization's publications have won several awards:[15] ^ a b c "Mission Statement", Alley Cat Rescue, Inc., accessed August 19, 2014. ^ "Key Staff Members", Alley Cat Rescue, Inc., accessed August 19, 2014.
