Kittens and cats in Normal, Illinois

Thiccy is a sweet, gentle guy with a story that will melt your heart. He came to us through a low-cost clinic, and while he was friendly and touchable, the neighborhood he came from just wasn’t safe for him. So we welcomed him into a cozy indoor life where he could finally feel secure—and he’s thriving! Thiccy is still learning that people can be trusted, but he’s a patient, kind soul who loves quiet affection and is slowly coming out of his shell. He’s adjusting beautifully to indoor life and is ready for a forever home that will give him patience, love, and the space to blossom. If you have a calm, loving environment and a gentle heart, Thiccy is the perfect companion to grow alongside.

Meet Ashley "Ashy Slashy" El Jefe, Slayer of Evil... or as his friends call him, Ashy Slashy. Did he arrive with that name? Yes. Do we know exactly where it came from? Nope. Would we ever dream of changing a name that cool? Absolutely not. Ashy Slashy is the total package: handsome, friendly, and convinced that people exist primarily to give him attention. He loves affection, gets along well with other cats, and is more than happy to make himself at home anywhere the cuddles are flowing. Life hasn't always been kind to this guy. He came to us with a fractured femur after what we believe was likely a kick from a person. Needless to say, whoever did that clearly didn't deserve him. With plenty of cage rest, good veterinary care, and time to heal, Ashy Slashy has made an excellent recovery and has been cleared to start his next chapter. Now all he needs is a family that will treat him the way he always should have been treated: with kindness, love, and maybe a little admiration for his legendary name. Ashy Slashy is too good for the world he came from. Luckily, we're confident there's a better one waiting for him.

Meet Nebula, a member of our Guardians of the Galaxy Litter! Nebula was born outside and came into rescue after she was weaned, but these days she's much more interested in exploring cozy homes than surviving the great outdoors. She's a thoughtful, intelligent little girl who loves to investigate her surroundings without constantly finding herself in trouble. She has the perfect balance of independence and affection. Nebula enjoys spending time with her people and likes to be nearby, but she's never demanding about it. She's the kind of kitten who's happy to quietly supervise whatever you're doing before settling in beside you for a well-earned nap. Sweet, smart, and just the right amount of adventurous, Nebula is ready to find a family of her own.

Meet Sweet Revenge, better known as Sweetie! Don't let her tiny size fool you because she's packed with enough personality to keep everyone entertained. As the smallest member of the My Chemical Romance Litter, Sweetie has appointed herself your personal climbing gym. She loves scrambling into laps, scaling shoulders, and finding the highest perch she can...which is usually you. When she's not perfecting her shoulder-riding skills, Sweetie is busy playing with everyone she can find, including the dogs in her foster home. She's confident, social, and always ready for her next adventure. If you're looking for a tiny kitten with a huge personality and endless affection, Sweetie is ready to steal your heart.
