Adopt a Tabby in North Carolina

Tabby cats aren't a breed but a coat pattern — those distinctive stripes, dots, and swirls. Tabbies are the most common cats in shelters and come in every personality type. Their prevalence in rescue means you'll find the perfect match.

North Carolina's rescue cat population is significant statewide, with strong TNR and adoption networks across the Triangle, Charlotte, and the mountains. Adoptable cats are abundant year-round.
