17-year-old Midnight the cat is looking for a new home

By James Cullum

Midnight the cat needs a new home in the twilight of her life.

The 17-year-old female black cat is up for adoption with the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria, and all adoption fees have been paid for by a generous donor.

“At her vintage age, Midnight has perfected the art of feline companionship,” said AWLA spokesperson Gina Hardter. “She is equally happy to enjoy a nap in the sun or a cuddle in your lap.”

Midnight is currently staying with one of the AWLA’s foster families. To schedule time to meet her, call 703-746-4774 or email [email protected].
