Story
Let me intoduce you to Snowflake. She is about 8 years old. I took her in when my mom passed away in 2024. We already had a cat, and unfortunately they can't live in the same house. We aren't certain if it's territorial behavior, she seems to think he wants to kill her. Whatever is the matter, they can't live together in my house. Snowflake needs a home where there isn't another cat, although she was raised with a gigantic female golden retriever in the same house so maybe a dog might be alright. She has been socialized well and she's very affectionate. If you were the person to take Snowflake from me, after a few weeks or months and she adjusts she will sleep in your lap, steal your chair if you get up for a second, or lay on your work laptop keyboard. Please help me find a permanent home for this little cutie.Adoption fee negotiable.

Story
Rehoming River (Free Adoption) River is a female cat born on Oct 12, 2023. She is spayed and fully vaccinated, healthy and well cared for. She is a bit shy with adults due to early experiences, but she is very gentle and affectionate once she feels safe. She is especially close to children and will often seek them out for companionship and petting. She also gets along well with other cats in the home and is bonded with another cat. I currently have three cats in the household. After bringing in the third cat, I developed frequent allergic reactions (skin redness and itching), which improve when exposure is reduced. For health reasons, I sadly need to rehome River. I am looking for a responsible and caring home where she can be safe and loved. Please message me if you are interested or would like more details. Thank you for helping her find a new home 🙏

Story
Cookie is a gentle, loving girl with the softest personality. She is healthy and well trained, raised indoor only. She may be a little cautious at first, but once she feels safe, she blossoms into the sweetest cuddle buddy you could ever ask for. She absolutely loves snuggling up, purring happily by your side, and keeping you company during quiet moments. Cookie enjoys the simple joys in life tasty snacks, cozy naps, and watching birds and fish like it’s her favorite TV show. She has a calm, observant nature and would do best in a home that can give her a little patience and lots of love. Cookie is looking for a forever home where she can feel safe, loved, and cherished. If you’re looking for a gentle companion who will reward your love with endless purrs, Cookie might be your perfect match.

Story
Fostered on Chicago’s North Side! Meet the Valentine Trio. Why choose a best friend from a screen when you can meet the whole crew? Cupid, Ruby, and Rose are a bonded trio of 10 month old "graduates" currently thriving in their foster home. These three have never spent a day in a shelter cage; they are 100% "city-vetted" and socialized to the rhythms of a real home. The North Side Experience: Fostered in the Avondale neighborhood on Chicago's North Side, these three are true city cats. They live on a busy street and are unfazed by the sounds of traffic, sirens, or general neighborhood bustle. They act as full-time "supervisors" of the house—whether you’re on a Zoom call or cooking dinner, expect a splotchy shadow nearby. (Just watch your step at breakfast; they are very enthusiastic about mealtime!) The "Matchmaker" Meet-and-Greet: We know it’s hard to tell personalities from a photo. Once your application is approved, followed by a brief phone call with our team, you are able to meet all THREE cats in their foster home! We want to see who you gravitate toward, and more importantly, which cat chooses YOU. Adoption Goals: The Dream: All three stay together! The Plan: A pair (any combination works—they are all best friends) and the third to a home that already has a friendly, social cat for company. Meet the Individuals! -Cupid (The Professional Cuddler) Identity: The biggest of the three and the only male. Personality: Cupid is the ultimate socialite. He loves meeting new people and will immediately jump into a guest's lap to purr himself to sleep. If you start petting him, he’s instantly on his back with his legs in the air, purring aggressively for belly rubs. He’s also a "clean plate" club member—he’ll happily help his sisters finish their breakfast if they leave any leftovers! -Ruby (The Polite Cheerleader) Identity: The smallest of the group; mostly white fur with distinct spots on her ear and rear leg. Personality: Ruby is the queen of "Zoomie Time." She is high-energy and deeply bonded to her siblings. Her cutest quirk? At mealtime, she stands on her hind legs to "supervise" her bowl being filled. She is a "lady with boundaries" who communicates clearly; she loves affection but will give you a tiny, gentle nudge when she’s had exactly enough, making her perfect for a home that understands and respects cat language. -Rose (The Stunning Athlete) Identity: Rose is the "supermodel" of the group, featuring deep black eyes and stunning golden spots. Personality: Rose is the most playful and energetic when it comes to toys and feather wands. While she is always nearby and loves sleeping at her foster dad's feet, she is a bit more independent with her affection. She enjoys light pets but prefers to keep her belly a mystery. She’s a perfect match for someone who loves an active, engaged cat who appreciates a little personal space. **Discounted Adoption Fee!** Three hearts are better than one! If you adopt all three in the litter, one adoption fee is on us. If you’re interested in adopting, please complete our adoption application at: www.HighTailsNFP.org/adopt
