Ziltch (Working Cat)

Do you own a barn, stable, or just have a lot of land? Looking for someone to help you keep it looking tidy and pest free? Then meet Ziltch the kitten, one of our working cats! Ziltch is what we call a working cat because they do just that, work! Working cats have more of a rough and tumble personality and prefer to be outdoors doing their job than indoors getting pets. They prefer the company of other animals to humans and like to approach people at their own pace. Ziltch is no stranger to other kitties and had a home with around 20 other feline siblings. We recommend a slow introduction to any other working cats to make sure they get along. Although they do not enjoy being cuddled by their humans, they love to help them out by helping catch any pests. Ziltch is looking for a home/owner who can utilize their special skills as they grow up. Sound like the cat for you? Stop by today! If you'd like to meet our available pets, please check the pet's profile to see if they are 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
