The goal of City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue is to find forever homes for adoptable cats and dogs so that they will never end up in a kill shelter or become displaced again. City Dogs & City Kitties Rescue rescues adoptable cats and dogs in overcrowded and high-kill shelters, where resources are severely limited. We are a foster-based rescue in Washington, DC. We do not have a shelter. We focus on local adoptions in DC and the metro area of Maryland and Virginia. CDCK has a thorough adoption process in order to find the best possible fit for each of our cats and dogs. We do not operate under a first-come, first-served model. As a volunteer organization, it may take a few weeks before everything is processed should we find an appropriate match. Please know we do our best to process adoption applications as quickly as possible. This requires checking references, arranging home visits, and coordinating visits with potential cats and dogs. Our adoption fee for dogs and puppies is $425 unless otherwise noted; senior dogs are available for an adoption fee of $200. Our adoption fee for cats and kittens is $200 unless otherwise noted
