My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

* PART OF A PAIRS ONLY ADOPTION WITH GIZMO *
Gunner is as sweet as he is cute. Though he's a big boy, he is a bit timid with people he doesn't know at first and does prefer a quieter household. He is extremely bonded with his brother/cousin (same dad, moms were sisters) Gizmo, so closely that we will not consider separating them. They compliment each other nicely; as Gizmo is the much smaller but bolder of the two, he leads the charge and Gunner is happy to let him. They play, snuggle, and entertain each other, while also very much enjoying their human family and cuddling with their people as well. They are good with other kind and social cats, as well as cat-friendly dogs that are gentle. Due to Gunner's preference for a low-key home, we recommend no small kids or a family with too much hustle and bustle. *** Gunner does suffer from chronic ear infections, possibly from food allergies. He is on a fish-based diet as vet feels it's a poultry allergy. There is a pet store brand food that has limited ingredients which he likes, but in the future there is a possibility of a prescription diet if it persists. He will also need to stay on daily (inexpensive) allergy meds purchased at your local store. Gunner should have yearly wellness visits to check the ears, and if any issues from time to time may need an ear drop or cleanings. He is a trooper and does very well with this and it's quite manageable. But his furever owner will need to know his ears should be watched for his optimal comfort and happiness.

More about this rescue

We have created a non-profit animal shelter dedicated to eliminating cruelty, abuse and the overpopulation of animals. The Humane Society is committed to creating the awareness of animal rights throughout the Romeoville community by providing numerous animal welfare programs, including pet adoptions, humane education and cruelty investigations. ALL animals available for adoption are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, fecal tested, fiv/felv tested (cats only), heartworm tested (dogs only) and microchipped. It is the policy of the Romeoville Humane Society to spay or neuter all animals in its care in an effort to reduce the homeless pet population.
