Story

Meet Penguin – The Dapper Little Lady with the Sweetest Mustache! With her crisp tuxedo coat and perfectly placed mustache, Penguin looks like she’s dressed for a black-tie affair at all times. This adorable girl may look formal, but underneath that polished exterior is a playful, affectionate kitten with a huge heart. She’s confident, curious, and full of joyful energy — the kind of kitty who wants to be wherever the fun is happening. Penguin is a true social butterfly who absolutely thrives with other cats and kittens. She must be adopted with another playful kitten (ideally her bestie Canary) or into a home that already has a young, energetic feline friend. She loves being part of the action and is happiest when she’s wrestling, chasing, and tumbling around with her kitten foster family. While she can adjust to a variety of loving homes, she does have a soft spot for calm, cozy environments where she can feel secure. She would do well with gentle, respectful children, and her perfect family will enjoy giving her plenty of hugs, kisses, and interactive playtime to match her energy. When it comes to play, Penguin is all in. Her absolute favorite toy is a simple plastic spring, which she proudly bats across the floor before launching into an enthusiastic chase. She also loves watching “cat TV” and studying the birds outside like a tiny tuxedo-clad detective — occasionally looking like she might leap right through the screen... but don't worry, no TVs have ever been harmed in her investigations! One of her favorite daily rituals is hopping up onto a chair to gaze thoughtfully out the window, keeping a careful watch on the world. And when the zoomies are done? That’s when Penguin’s softer side shines. She looooves being pet and is a total love bug. She happily curls up in a lap or stretches out across your chest, purring herself into a peaceful snooze. At bedtime, she tucks herself into her favorite soft bed and sleeps soundly through the night, recharging for another day of fun. Penguin is the perfect mix of playful and affectionate — a tiny gentleman’s mustache on a joyful little lady who just wants a forever family (and a kitten best friend!) to share her adventures with. Could this tuxedo sweetheart be the missing piece in your home? WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.

Story

Meet Cassia – The Chatty Little Lovebug with a Purr That Never Quits! With her bright, curious eyes, beautiful calico coat, and the sweetest little face that always seems to be asking, “Can I sit with you?”, Cassia is pure affection wrapped in fur. This former stray turned indoor princess has fully embraced the cozy life — and she is never looking back! Cassia was rescued after she wandered into a school hoping for a taste of warmth and safety… and now? She can’t get enough of soft beds, gentle hands, tasty treats, and all the love her heart can hold. You can truly see how grateful she is to be safe and sound indoors. Cassia would do best in a calm, quiet home where she can feel safe and relaxed, as she can become easily overstimulated and isn’t a fan of big crowds or loud noises. She has interacted with other cats in her foster home and gets along well with them for the most part, but she is still learning how to play appropriately and can get overstimulated during playtime. Because of this, she would do well either as a solo cat soaking up all the attention or in a home with one other gentle kitty friend who understands her boundaries. The right peaceful environment will allow her loving personality to truly shine. And oh, what a personality it is! Cassia is vocal (she has thoughts and she’d love to share them), wildly affectionate, and a certified purr monster. She gives little kisses, cuddles up tightly next to her humans, and happily melts into your arms once she’s settled. She’s also wonderfully playful and curious — exploring every corner of the house like a tiny adventurer on an important mission. Bring out the silver vine or anything sprinkled with catnip and you’ll see her absolute joy — rolling, wriggling, and blissfully lost in kitty happiness. Cassia didn’t just find indoor life — she chose it. She walked bravely into a school looking for something better, and now she’s ready to choose her forever family, too. If you’re looking for a devoted, chatty, cuddle-obsessed companion who will shower you with purrs and gratitude every single day, Cassia is waiting to curl up right beside you.

Story

Meet Roland Roland is a big boy in all the best ways. He is tall, lanky, full of personality, and always ready to share his opinions. One of those opinions happens to be that he prefers life as the only cat. He wants all the attention, all the treats, and all the comfy spots for himself. Roland is very food and treat motivated. He will absolutely play, but usually when he thinks you are not watching. Laser pointers are his guilty pleasure and one of the best ways to convince him to interact with you. Roland would thrive in a quiet home with no other pets. He could be a wonderful lap cat or a loyal shadow buddy who follows you from room to room. Older kids are a good fit for his style and will appreciate his big personality. If you want a cat with confidence, charm, and a whole lot of character, Roland might be your guy. Come and meet me @ Glen Ellyn Pet Supplies Plus (299 Roosevelt Rd, Glen Ellyn, IL) Pro Tip: Submit an application beforehand for a seamless adoption process!
