My story

Meet Gypsy – A Sweetheart with a Big Personality!Gypsy is a lovely adult cat with a gentle soul and a playful side. She spent five years with her previous family after being found as a stray, and now she`s ready to find a new forever home where she can feel safe and loved. Described as affectionate, friendly, calm, and talkative, Gypsy enjoys the company of people—especially kids! She previously lived with two children and did great with them. Gypsy enjoys playtime with all kinds of cat toys and has been known to chat with her humans when she’s in the mood. While she loves human companionship, Gypsy is not a fan of dogs and would do best in a dog-free home. She gets a little nervous in new or loud environments and tends to hide when company comes over—but give her time, and her sweet personality shines through. Gypsy is comfortable being picked up, brushed, and having her nails trimmed—though like many cats, she prefers when grooming is done gently and at her pace. She’s used to indoor life, uses her litterbox faithfully, and enjoys a good scratching post session. If you’re looking for a loyal feline companion with a mix of cuddles, play, and personality, Gypsy might just be your girl. Come meet her and see if she’s the perfect match for your family!If you`d like to meet our available animals, please check the `shelter information` box on the listing to see if the pet is located at our Fairfax Campus (4500 West Ox Road, Fairfax) or our Lorton Campus (8875 Lorton Road, Lorton). Then, come in during our open hours! Both of our locations are open Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12-5 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 12-7 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-5 p.m. For more information on our adoption process, including requirements and fees, visit: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/adopt

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Gypsy, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
