Story
I adopted her from a rescue in Chicago with her bonded friend Cookie in 2019. Since then my life has drastically changed as covid took half my family. I’m just not able to keep him and Sadie any longer. He is really a lovable cat. He loves sitting on your lap being petted. He does have FIV but I’ve never had any problems with him at all. He’s super sweet and loving.

Or, how about these Domestic Shorthairs in cities near Hampshire, Illinois

Story
Special needs: Adopter with understanding of tortoiseshell cat personality and temperament. Lulu is a pretty, smart, curious adult tortoiseshell girl born around April of 2019. She has a loving, sweet side and is anxious to see her humans to interact and play with them. She will greet you at the door with leg rubs and purrs demanding to be petted. Once on your lap she is content to purr loudly and make biscuits with her toes. Lulu craves human interaction and is most happy when she is playing with you chasing the bouncy balls, catching the fish on the string, or trapping the red laser dot. On the flipside, even when it appears Lulu is happy and content in the moment, she can be unpredictable and swat at you for no particular reason. Torties are temperamental with big personalities and a possessive nature. They also are super-smart and fiercely loyal companions. We feel that Lulu would be happiest in a home where she is the only cat and can get all of your attention. Lulu needs an adopter who will be patient with her so that in time she will settle into routines and stability. A few nice windows where she can watch the world and entertain herself is a plus. Lulu is currently hanging out in one of our foster homes with other cats, dogs, and kids, and a few big windows for her to watch the world. Her foster mom says that she is doing great in this environment. If you would like to foster Lulu for A Heart for Animals while she is awaiting adoption, please contact us at www.aheartforanimals.org under Foster and complete an application If you are interested in adopting Lulu please fill out our online adoption application at www.aheartforanimals.org under Adopt The adoption fee for adults 1-7 years old is $200 and includes spay/neuter, rabies, FVRCP vaccination, deworming, flea/tick preventative, FIV/FeLV combo test and microchip.

Story
Cosmo is a handsome, sweet, playful grey striped tabby adult boy born around 4/4/22. He came into the rescue as part of Mama Stella's litter of five. Four of Cosmos's siblings have been adopted and he and mama Stella are hanging out together waiting for their forever homes. Cosmo is very fond of his mama and they enjoy hanging out, playing, grooming each other, and napping. Cosmo is good for his mama Stella's confidence, and it would help her if they got adopted together. But it's not required. Cosmo's foster mama says that he is a maniac when it comes to toys. He loves to play with everything! He would be a great cat for a home with children as they could entertain each other for hours! After playtime he loves pets and belly rubs and overall is such a great cat. If you are interested in adopting Cosmo, please fill out our online adoption application at www.aheartforanimals.org under Adopt. The adoption fee for adults 1-7 years old is $200 and includes rabies and FVRCP vaccinations, FIV/FeLV combo test, deworming, flea/tick preventative, microchip, and spay/neuter. The adoption fee for 2 adults adopted together at the same time is $350.
