Winifred has the look of a storybook heroine: big eyes, tiny face, a delicate presence… but don’t be fooled, she’s also a fierce wand-toy warrior! She plays tug-of-war with all the gusto of a terrier, and once she wins, she proudly drags the toy straight to her water bowl like a trophy.
She’s a shy girl who blossoms with gentle company, sometimes surprising her foster by initiating a cuddle session. And while she’ll always be remembered as an excellent mama (she raised her own kittens plus an adopted bonus baby), she’s ready to retire from motherhood and lean into being someone’s beloved companion.
Winifred is soft, playful, and full of quiet charm- the kind of cat who rewards patience with deep sweetness and delightfully quirky habits.

Additional adoption info
We have worked hard to make our adoption process as easy as possible. We like to think of the process in four steps: application, phone conversation, meet and greet and adoption day. We will get back to applicants within a few days even if they were not chosen.

More about this rescue
Paws and Claws Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in the Chicagoland area dedicated to preventing, and alleviating the suffering caused by abuse, neglect, and overpopulation. We help dogs and cats mentally and physically heal, and give them a chance to find love, a full life, and a forever home.
Our focus is on rescuing orphaned neonatal kittens, nursing kittens with their feral mothers, under-socialized cats, and dogs who have been at Chicago Animal Care and Control for too long. We see ourselves as the crossing guards for these vulnerable animals, helping them get from their past, whether that be from a traumatic home, a kennel, or a euthanasia list, to a safe and kind human who will love them.
