About Squash

Meet Squash, the adorable orange-and-white kitten who's ready to fill your home with love this Thanksgiving! This playful little guy is a bundle of energy, always on the go and seeking new adventures. He loves to chase toy mice and climb high on scratching posts. Once you earn his trust, he transforms into an exceptional snuggle buddy who will keep you warm during the chilly months. Squash is currently fostered in Leesburg, VA, where he shares his space with other friendly cats. While he can be adopted alone, having another young feline friend at home will enrich his life and reduce any loneliness. The Feline Foundation of Greater Washington has a policy, though, that kittens under six months must be adopted in pairs or to a home with an already compatible cat that's a year old or younger. If you're looking to add a little softness to your family this holiday season, Squash is eager to become your new best friend. Click apply to start the adoption process.
