Calico kittens & cats in Sandwich, Illinois

Meet Dixie, she is a 3-4 year old calico.she is a very pretty girl. Poor Dixie and her friend, Trixie, lost their home to owner's illness, no fault of theirs. Dixie was originally an outside cat who was found and brought inside with kittens. Kittens had found their homes and now mom needs a chance. I don't know how long she had originally been outside but she is still shy but I believe has a lot of potential with a loving patient person. Dixie is spayed, FIV/FelV negative, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. If you think you would like to make Dixie part of your family please call Jody at 708-268-6965. Her adoption fee is $85.00.

Mishu is about 5-6 years old, she is a lovely cat and loves the attention you give her, if she likes you, she'll follow you around all day. She is also quite small for her age.She has ovarian remnant syndrome that causes her to go into mini heats and pee everywhere and I can't take care of that anymore.

Buttercup is a beautiful and sweet 7-year-old Calico who was adopted from us as a young cat and sadly returned due to new allergies in the home. She is a loving girl, who is understandable a bit nervous and sad back at the shelter. She loves cheek rubs and lounging in cozy beds. Buttercup is looking for a home as the only cat.

Angie Baby is a sweet little girl. She loves to be held and loves to play. She gets along with other cats, small dogs and children. She is ideal for any type of owner: a single person, an elderly person, a couple, a family with kids, as an only pet or with other cats &/or dogs. She was born in November 2025. She has been spayed & is up to date on her vaccinations. This animal is being fostered in TN but transport to a location near you is included in your adoption fee. We use Rescue Riders Pet Transport, (www.rescueridersllc.net), the most animal-friendly transport on the road.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.If you're working for home or just playing it safe by practicing social distancing, now is a perfect time to bring a new furry family member into the fold. Email us any questions about any cats we have and we will be happy to provide any additional information you may need. If you are approved for adoption, we are now doing curbside adoptions in order to minimize contact. Calypso is about 2 years old as of April 2026. She has spent a large portion of that time in confinement. She was trapped as an older kitten with the intent to be socialized for adoption. Due to a series of unfortunate incidents, the window to return her back to her outside home closed, so we decided to continue efforts to socialize. Recently she has been given free reign of her foster home, and she's getting so brave! She's gone from spending her days in the basement to spending almost all her time in the vicinity of her foster family. Her buddy Spokane, also available, gives her so much confidence. If she's laying with him, she will relax for pets. Otherwise she stays just out of reach, but that's ok! She's used to TV, seeing people walk by outside, and sharing the couch with humans. While we would love to see her flourish in her own home, we are now looking for any safe outcome. If you have a SAFE shop, building, or barn, we think she would adapt. Her foster mom is very ill and she has nowhere else to go. Please consider her! Apply for this beautiful girl now at safehousepets.orgVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.

Born: April 11, 2024 Adoption Donation: $200 Meet Friday – A Gentle Soul Looking for Love Friday is a beautiful calico cutie with a quiet, gentle nature. Coming from a hoarding situation, she’s still learning to trust people, but one thing is for sure—she absolutely loves other cats! Having feline friends gives her confidence, and she would thrive in a home with a social, friendly kitty to show her the ropes. Though she’s very shy, Friday has a sweet heart and just needs a patient adopter who will give her the time and space to feel safe. If you have a calm home and a kind heart (and maybe a kitty friend waiting), Friday might be the perfect addition to your family. Are you the one to give this shy girl the love and security she deserves? All cats are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, and FeLV/FIV tested at the time of adoption. An application is required to view our adoptable pets. All household members and any dogs from the household need to be present at the time of your appointment (unless your dog has had prior exposure to cats).  A photo ID will be required at the time of adoption.

It is with a heavy heart that I have to relinquish my kitten, Batty. My cats are not getting along with him, and they are not accepting him into my household. He tries to play, but the other cats just attack him. He is good with dogs and wants to play with cats. He is 4 months old. He is a very sweet kitten. There is nothing in his behavior that is the problem. My cats are the problem.
