Adopt a Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat)
Rocket the Cat needs a home
My name is Rocket, ready to launch and land in your arms. My siblings and I were born with incredibly beautiful bi-color coats. We have white fur under black which makes us a shimmery silver grey. I love to play and to romp with my brother and sisters. I adore human attention and I want you to pick me up and cuddle me. I am super sweet and my purr will let you know I'm happy. I am ready for lifting off into your life.
This kitty is currently at The Cat Corner.

Thank you for choosing to adopt!
As a no-kill rescue, we can only bring in and save more cats and kittens in need as our current cats and kittens are adopted. This is why we say that when you adopt one cat or kitten you are actually saving TWO lives! One is the current cat or kitten that you are adopting, the second is the one that we now have room to save and place into our safe shelter.
About The Cat Corner:
The Cat Corner was founded by a very passionate and devoted animal lover, Martha Nicholson. After seeing an overwhelming number of cats homeless and being euthanized, Martha was determined to open a no-kill shelter to make a difference in these cats' lives. In 1981, Martha purchased an old barber shop at her own expense and opened The Cat Corner in Hampton, Virginia. The Cat Corner is a completely volunteer operated organization and is solely funded by donations from the community. Because of the help of our caring and hardworking volunteers and the support and donations from our community, we have been able to uphold Martha's dream and make a difference in countless lives...and doing so for over three decades!
The Cat Corner, Inc. is a nonprofit, all-volunteer-run organization that does not receive any federal, state or local government funding. We depend solely from the generosity of caring individuals from our community to continue to do our work.
