Zimmerman's Story...
We received an email from Heather in Bronzeville. Her neighbors moved out last month, leaving behind their two cats. The female cat, who had had many litters of kittens, was in very bad shape and the vet recommended putting her down. Above is her kittendaddy, the fella that is left. Heather wrote to us that she and her husband are desperately seeking a rescue to take him in before the weather changes. They went the extra mile and had him neutered, tested (neg/neg yay!), and even put into boarding while they search. We call him Zimmerman.

We are in need of a foster or forever home for this armful of lovebug.

Here is Kitty Zimmerman demonstrating three phases of how much he likes being held.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Zimmerman, a Chicago Domestic Shorthair cat 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 cat 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.
