My story

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

Hi there, I'm Max! At 17 years old, I've got plenty of wisdom to depart along with love (and meows) to give. My person passed away, so now I'm on the lookout for a new lap, shoulder, and heart to call my own. I can't see and I don't hear so well, but that doesn't stop me from finding you--and once I do, I'll tell you all about it with my loud and frequent meows. I adore attention, affection, and being held. I'll even perch on your shoulder like a furry little parrot if you let me. Canned food is my absolute favorite, and I think mealtime should be celebrated often. I'm sweet, gentle, and love making friends--both with humans and other cats. Right now, I'm in a cozy foster home. We've been together forever, and we'd love to find a home where we can keep each other company while soaking up all the love you have to give. If you're looking for a pair of friendly, devoted companion, we're ready to fill your home with warmth, purrs, and stories. You can start the process to meet us with an online application today!

More about this shelter

TAPS-Tazewell Animal Protective Society was founded in 1958 in Pekin Illinois in a building donated by the City of Pekin on River Road. In 1979, rapidly rising river water forced the evacuation of the animals. Once again, the City of Pekin stepped in and donated a building for the animals. Several moves later, and with the help and generosity of many volunteers and community members, TAPS now has a new home at 100 TAPS Lane. Last year we celebrated 50 year of caring for the homeless animals of Central Illinois.
