Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Matilda is a beautiful, affectionate, snugly, loving, playful, and fun, 18-month-old, female Tortoiseshell cat looking for a loving guardian. Matilda was hanging out in front of the Chicago South Shore Public Library greeting everyone and anyone who would pay attention to her. Little children would give her pieces of their donuts and she’d let them pick her up and cuddle her. A cat-loving visitor noticed that she needed help and brought her into rescue. Matilda is a fabulous indoor-cat … she uses her litter box and scratching post. She is so sweet and enjoys jumping for a feather toy or rolling with her catnip toys. She is living in a foster home and has not yet met other cats and dogs, but we think she’ll do okay with careful introduction. She would also do fine as the one and only pet in the home. To meet and possibly adopt Matilda please contact her rescuer Kyla at kyla.page@gmail.com or 206-910-2434. Her adoption fee of $95 benefits Friends of Chicago Animal Care and Control. She is very healthy, spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, micro-chipped and virus-tested negative. She is being fostered in Chicago.
