Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Springfield, Illinois

Our last remaining SCAC fall 2021 cat disaster survivor needs a home! Amanda is a cat person's cat. She is her own girl, it's her world, we are living in it. Know that and chin snuggles and purrs are yours (on Amanda's schedule of course). As are most divas, she is beautiful. Amanda came to us among the kitties staff handed out of the facility's full rooms of cats severely infected with upper respiratory as fast as they could in an attempt to save as many animals as possible. It was chaos and a terrible time. Amanda's saving grace was that once we finally got records and could decipher one that was hers, she had been vaccinated. Her case was mild and she responded well to proper treatment. Let us not forget, for the fear those times ever be repeated. Amanda remembers! Amanda was recently placed but returned. It was a short placement; what we tried to tell the adopter is that it takes time, ultimately you and Amanda will sync up and know each other well. Amanda's foster caregivers love her, have been caring for her and handling her for months, months that have often brought the joy of plenty of chin snuggles and purrs. Generally speaking, it is believed Amanda does best as the only animal in the home. There is a chance, with the right cat person, she will coexist if there is ample room in the home for everyone to have their own significant space. We need to find someone with a deep appreciation for cats, who can delight in this girl's feline ways and personality.

Boo is an incredibly affectionate cat. He would make someone a tremendous companion. He just wants to be with you, and sit on your lap. Boo spent early months of his life as a stray, most likely abandoned. Unfortunately he was infected with FIV. Boo is a lover not a fighter, but that could not be said of every cat in his original neighborhood. Further, he was injured badly and had a rough go of it for a number of months. He is on prednisone and most likely will need to remain on this support for the rest of his life -- at least that is the outlook for now. His specials needs, therefore, are that he is FIV positive and must be maintained on prednisone. The prednisone stimulates his appetite, which is why he is a bit on the heavy side. Boo would very much like to find a home where he could be fully integrated in the household. So he is looking for that special person who can accommodate his needs. He is worth every bit of this needed consideration. Due to his medical condition, the veterinarians have been cautious about vaccines.

Mr. Dean is a beautiful cat. He is thought to be four to six years old. He weighs 13 pounds. Dean is a very inquisitive cat who can problem solve just about anything (aka can open just about any door/cabinet). He is affectionate and very self confident. He has no problems running with the dogs. His foster mom adores his confidence!! Dean and his foster home housemate kitties have become very bonded. They are now very attached to each other and we would like to place them together. Dean is rarely seen without one or both of the other 2. It would be heartbreaking to split them up, so we will insist the potential home adopt all three. Dean was a little offstandish with the other kitties at first, so it is unknown if he would take to other cats quickly in a new home.

Gibson is thought to be 8-10 years old. He is a very handsome tabby. He weighs 10.5 pounds. Gibson's special need is that he has been diagnosed with stomatitis, a dental disease. At his young age he has already had several teeth extracted. After intake and original dental care, including needed extractions, Illinois Humane has been able to stabilize him with monitored good care. Gibson was born to play! He is always looking for someone to play with. He is a fun guy to watch. Gibson is very bonded with his kitty companions in his foster home -- Squier and Dean. They came into Illinois Humane together and they have bonded even further in their foster home. It would be heartbreaking to split them up, so we must insist upon placing them together. And, Mr. Gibson stops at nothing for food! Gibson's one little hitch is that he is not always the best at drawing in his claws. For this reason, he is not a good match for young to mid-aged children, or individuals with thin skin or using blood thinners. He is a total sweetheart. He just doesn't always get it that he needs to draw in his claws.

Mr. Tux is shy at first, but once he warms up to you, he enjoys getting pets and scratches. He is a very calm cat that loves to hang out in high up spaces. He is one handsome cat. It will take time for Tux to become affectionate. He has existed with other cats, and would be a great addition to a household that loves cats, that may be looking for another cat to join other cat social felines. As you see he is one handsome kitty.

We rescued this super friendly, cuddly and affectionate girl after seeing how she got along with other felines around her. Since bringing her home, she has not changed and continues to be a lovable, energetic, and playful kitty. Sadly, our resident senior cat just could not adjust to having a new sibling after multiple attempts to help them both get used to each other's scents and spaces. This is NOT an issue with Mimi, as she was very outgoing and friendly, but our other cat has been raised alone so she is terrified and stressed out by Mimi. Because of this, we have to keep them separate in different parts of the house, and we feel it was unfair to both of them. Therefore, we feel that it would be in the best interest of both kitties that Mimi gets to be in a loving furever home where the resident pets are more used to having another sibling.

Rayva is sweet and very quiet. She rarely ever meows. She will come to you when she wants to cuddle.

Ollie is a snuggly sassy lady. I got her when she was about a year old, and her previous owner had her declawed. It took a lot of trust to get her to open up. She likes to play when she lays on her back, you just grab her belly and she will grab your hand. One of her favorite ways to play is to swat when you walk past, she will hide and then bat at moving targets (humans, and dogs). She was raised with other dogs in the house. She is spayed and I will pass along her cat tree, litter, and toys.

She's is older cat about 9 years old. She's been around dogs like pitbulls and other cats but preferred to be by herself. She's stiddish alittle. Very lovable once she gets use to you. Found out my baby is diabetic and allergic to cats so I am trying to rehome her to a good loving home. For what she got left of her life. Very sweet.

NB Two years old named Sarabi. Very sweet, loves to be held over your shoulder and loves to cuddle. Great with kids, other cats, and even small dogs. She’s also great with new people and lets people pick her up first time meeting them. For personal family reasons, I have to give her up. She’s not chipped, but is up to date on her shots. She will go outside in a harness and loves to explore. Gets startled a bit because I haven’t taken her out as much as I would have liked. I also have a cat wheel she loves to use if interested. Feel free to ask questions.
