Rabbit is a 4-year-old brown and white tabby with a personality as unique as his name. Despite not having a tail, Rabbit hops around with joyful energy, bringing charm and warmth to everyone he meets. His playful, endearing movements make him a one-of-a-kind companion who loves being close to those who care for him.
Though Rabbit is incontinent and requires some extra care—including being on Miralax—he takes it all in stride, showing nothing but sweetness and affection. He loves nothing more than sitting on your lap, soaking in your attention and offering his love in return. His gentle nature makes him the perfect companion for someone looking for a calm and loving feline friend.
Rabbit may need a bit more attention than most cats, but his loving heart makes it all worth it. If you’re willing to offer him the care and patience he needs, he’ll reward you with endless cuddles and loyalty. He may hop instead of walk, but there’s no doubt about it—this little tabby will hop right into your heart. Come meet him at the Animal Protective League, 1001 Taintor Road in Springfield. We’re open every day from noon to 5 p.m.

More about this shelter
For over 60 years, the Animal Protective League has been the voice for animals in Springfield and Sangamon County. APL operates a limited admission animal shelter and a high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic along with comprehensive animal-welfare programs. APL is a private, not-for-profit organization and operates primarily by donations.
APL's limited admission animal shelter prioritizes intake by sick, injured, abused and abandoned dogs and cats. APL strives to match animals with carefully screened, loving, permanent owners. All animals leave our shelter spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with all age appropriate vaccinations. Over 2000 deserving dogs and cats are placed in homes every year! APL also has an active group of foster families who provide interim homes until space is available at our shelter.
APL's Spay/neuter clinic performs over 12,000 spay/neuter surgeries every year. In addition to the public, we work with other animal shelters, animal control agencies and animal welfare groups within a 30-mile radius of Springfield. Our free transport system picks up animals from various locations and transports them to our facility for surgery and then returns the animals the following day. This allows many other organizations to have access to low-cost spay/neuter services for their own animals as well as animals in their communities. We currently work with 31 partners in 18 surrounding counties.
