Story

Waldron is a senior cat looking for his retirement home. He is looking for a calm and quiet home where he can get the love and attention he needs. Despite his age, he loves to play! He eagerly chases wand toys. He is sensitive to space and prefers to have plenty of his own space to lounge around. He is working on his social skills with other cats and may do well in a home with other cats. Waldron is currently spending some much needed time in foster care! Interested in adopting?

Story

Meet Smokey! This sweet, anxious girl is receiving love in a foster home as she really did not enjoy the shelter environment... here's what her foster has to say about her wonderful self... "Personality wise she loves to talk to you and will be happy to remind you it's feeding time. She is a little awkward cuddling. She will lie on you rise of you are sleeping on your side. She is very playful and loves her cat toy on the stick and will bring it to you to play. She can be very acrobatic! She is a sweetheart who you don't have to worry about swiping at you and you can give many belly rubs to and is comfortable with touching her paws." Interested in Smokey?

Story

Enjoy laying in the sun more than climbing up your curtains? Ahem, I mean, enjoy the quiet, slow life? So do our older cats! These cats have been around the block a couple of times and are eager to get out of the shelter life that is hard on their aging feline frame. Got sunspots on your couch? Anti Cruelty has senior cats to sit in them. It can be hard seeing older animals end up at the shelter, but opening your home to them is a truly healing and beautiful experience. You get the opportunity to enrich senior pets' lives and make them feel youthful again! While often not as active as younger cats, seniors are likely to be your cuddliest friend, and neighborhood watch committee, all rolled up in one! Of course, every senior cat is different, and some love to play! This pet has some medical needs that may exist outside of the regular expected vet care costs. Even though Special Care animals sometimes need advanced medical support, they pay back tenfold in gratitude, sweetness, and cuddles. If you’re curious about this particular animal’s Special Care status, please ask a staff member or volunteer. Come meet all of our lovely senior companions at 510 N. LaSalle! We offer same-day adoptions, free parking, and guide you through the adoption process from start to finish. Learn about hours & the adoption process at https:/anticruelty.org/adopt-info.

Story

It is hard to resist the cuteness level of a kitten! If you think you are ready to add a new kitten to your family, just remember a few things: Kittens have lots of energy and want to play, wrestle, climb, and explore all day long. Kittens thrive on having another cat or kitten to keep them entertained, as they can get lonely when their favorite people are away from home. Kittens have not yet learned manners, so they will need someone to teach them important skills such as how to use a scratching post, that climbing the curtains isn’t always allowed, and that hands are great for getting pets, not to nibble on. If you have the time, patience, and love to offer a furry little kitten, visit PetSmart at 2221 Oakton St. and meet this sweetheart in person.
