Otto Mobile's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Shorthair | Color: | Brown Tabby | Age: | Senior |
| Sex: | Male | ID#: | P12-03 | Hair: | Short |
I am already neutered, a special needs pet, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Otto is a sweet mild-mannered 14year old brown tabby boy. He has white mittens in front, and white stockings in back! He's very gentlemanly and has a great relaxed personality.
Otto was found as a stray and taken to Animal Control. St. Sophia's Forgotten Felines saw how sweet and easy-going this boy is, and rescued him. Now he's looking for a forever home where he can sit on laps and enjoy sun-bathes.
Otto is a big talker and loves to tell you all about everything on his mind. He's a great lap-cat and gets along well with other cats. He's so easy-going that he'd probably do well with dogs too.
Kids are a cinch -- Otto loves them!
This sweet talkative boy has hyper-thyroid, so he requires daily medication. But he doesn't let this need slow him down. He's a busy-body who likes to be where the action is.
This sweet boy is neutered, microchipped, treated for parasites, fully vaccinated, and negative for FIV/Leuk. He's even had a complete dental so now he's got a great smile! Otto's adoption fee is $75. He is currently in foster-care, so if you'd like to meet him, please call or text 847-773-7639 or email info.stsff@gmail.com.

Our Purpose:
St. Sophia’s Forgotten Felines is a non-profit foster-based cat rescue in Addison, IL. Established in late 2010, St. Sophia’s strives to be the best in temporary care for cats in transition. What does this mean? It means that the cats in our care aren’t intended to stay in our care. Our hope is a forever home for every adoptable cat — no more homeless cats!
Our Cats:
We work with local Trap-Neuter-Return organizations. Trap-Neuter-Return (also known as TNR) is a method of humanely trapping unaltered feral cats, neutering them, and releasing them back to the same environment where they were originally found. TNR is promoted by proponents as a humane and more effective alternative for managing and reducing feral cat populations (compared to euthanasia).
While most cats trapped are completely feral (wild, without any domestic socialization), some cats (often kittens, or even adults that have been well cared-for outdoors) can and have become socialized and adoptable. St. Sophia evaluates each cat in TNR programs individually in order to determine what the best forever home would be (whether their home is best outdoors in the wild, or whether they are best suited to an indoor family lifestyle). Each cat is different in many ways, and St. Sophia’s prides itself on being able to determine what’s best for each cat on a one-on-one basis.
Our People:
The Board Members of St. Sophia’s Forgotten Felines have over 15 years of service in feline welfare combined. They come from various backgrounds including marketing, publishing, business, web-design, librarianship, and more.
We are all volunteer-run and are always looking for people to help!
Our adoptable cats are available to be seen by appointment during evenings and weekends. We often have adopt-a-thons at local pet stores and grooming places.
To set an appointment:
* Call or text 847-773-7639
* Email info.stsff@gmail.com
* Schedule on our Website
In Order to Adopt you Must:
* Have current photo identification with your current address
* Be willing and able to spend the time & money needed to feed, house, play, train and provide medical care for your cat.
* You must carefully read the terms of our Adoption Contract and agree to its terms.
* You agree that if, for any reason, at any time, you cannot keep the cat you have adopted from St. Sophia’s, you must RETURN THE CAT TO ST. SOPHIA’S.
* Agree to allow an authorized representative of St. Sophia’s to make adoption follow-ups
After you have made the decision to add a furry friend to your household, there are a few more steps you will need to do to complete the process.
FIRST:
Visit our Cats + Kittens page to find a cat or kitten that you are interested in.
SECOND:
Schedule a Visitation at our Office Headquarters using our Online Scheduler, and meet with the cat(s) and/or kittens(s) that you are interested in.
THIRD:
Fill out an Adoption Application, and review it with a St. Sophia’s Representative.
LASTLY:
Sign the Adoption Contract and pay the adoption fee.
– Adult Cats (6 months+) = $75.00
– Kittens (2-5 months) = $100.00
– Black Cats (adults) = $40.00
– Senior Cats (8+years) = $40.00
This fee includes:
– Spaying/neutering
– Microchipping,
– Vaccinations,
– Worming and Parasite Treatment
– Feline Leukemia/FIV (AIDS) combo test.
It also allows for the return – FOR ANY REASON – to the shelter of any of our cats or kittens should that become necessary.
Once the decision to adopt has been made, you expect to allow 45 minutes for the actual adoption process. You will need a sturdy carrier to take the cat or kitten home in, and proof of identification and/or your lease if requested.
We are a licensed non-profit foster-based cat rescue working out of Addison, IL, serving DuPage and surrounding counties. We always have many cats and kittens waiting for homes and we strive to provide them with the best in temporary care during their time of transition.
