Milo's Story...
Milo is a 16-18 week old orange tabby boy. Milo was found with his littermates living under a back porch in West Town. They were a sick little bunch but got healthy pretty quick. Milo got hid name from the cat in The Adventures of Milo and Otis. Milo has been one of the bravest of the bunch and definitely the most curious. As with all kittens, he is shy at first. But with a few treats or a bit of cooked chicken, he will jump on your lap and let you pet him. And then he purrs. He is a rough and tumble little guy and used to love to wrestle with his brother, PJ. He loves to play AND eat. His favorite toys are little balls and feather wands. She also loves the Cat Dancer, and will pounce all over you trying to catch it. Milo was exposed to an older cats…the older cat would hiss but Milo would just look at her in a curious manner. Oh, and Milo loves to look out the window. He would love to watch the birds and people. My friend, Nancy, and I fostered the kittens for 4 months and got very attached to them. If possible, please provide an update so we can know they are with a good family at victordesk@yahoo.com.
Thank you,
Donna

About Our Shelter...
Tree House is a humane organization that promotes the inherent value of every animal and strives to educate the public about proper and responsible animal care, with a focus on the care and placement of stray cats with special physical and emotional needs. We are committed to finding every healthy and treatable animal a home.

Tree House was founded in 1971 and since that time we have expanded and enhanced our programs and services to become the largest, no-kill, cageless shelter for sick, injured, abused and neglected cats in the Chicagoland area. To date we have found homes for nearly 14,000 cats. In addition to our focus on the rehabilitation and adoption of stray cats, we offer many other valuable programs and services, including our Free Spay/Neuter Program, Pet Loss Grief Support Group, Humane Investigations Team, Youth Volunteer Program, Animal-Assisted Therapy, Behavior Hotline, Pet Food Pantry, and Education Outreach Program.

Our Adoption Process...
At Tree House, trained adoption counselors interview prospective adopters to understand their needs, and then adopters are escorted to the Adoption Floor to choose their future friend. Adopters are encouraged to take as much time as they need to find a cat. All adoption applications stay on file for three months so please don't feel that you need to rush to choose a companion cat right away.

Your adoption fee of $85 covers the cost of your cat's care at Tree House including: spay or neuter, deworming, flea treatment, FIV and FeLV testing, AVID microchip, veterinary examination, and all necessary vaccinations. We also give a 30-day health guarantee on all of our adoptions.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Milo, a Chicago Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Chicago, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Chicago.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Chicago already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Chicago breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Chicago paves the way for another one to be saved.
