Story
Monti is a 6 year old male kitty who was brought to us with 5 other cats after his owners could no longer care for him. He was trapped outdoors as a kitten and has lived his whole life mostly in a dog crate in a home, but did have some free roam time indoors. He has come around and is shy still but a sweet boy and would do great in a house with other friendly cats. He would prefer a quiet household as he lived with an elderly couple and just other cats. Monti uses the litterbox here at the shelter. His adoption fee is $70 and includes his neuter, microchip, vaccinations and negative felv/fiv test.

Tim is a sweet male cat who was brought into us as a stray and never reclaimed. He is microchipped but not registered and the rescue who he is chipped to has not reached out so we cannot be sure of his age. We think he is an older adult male. Tim has been good with us here and uses the litterbox. He has recently been moved to our adoption floor so keep an eye out for updates! His adoption fee is $70 and he is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and felv/fiv negative.

Story
Cali is almost 4 years old and loves to cuddle! She is beautiful and very sweet. Cali made a fantastic mother for her 4 kittens and since they have grown up she has calmed down a lot. She is very docile and would be great for anyone looking for a sweet companion and lap-cat. She currently lives with 3 other cats and would fit well into a home with other cats but she would also be fine being an only-cat. Cali is good with kids, but is not overly playful but loves the attention she gets from kids. Unfortunately, Cali is very afraid of dogs so she is looking for a cat-only home.

Story
Meet Stormy!  She's 2 years old female cat that came into the rescue from a rough situation.  She's skittish at first, and will need a quiet home with very quiet dogs or none at all.  She gets scared with other cats as well.  Her foster home is working on socializing her more and help her feel more comfortable with other animals.  She will make a great pet for someone who has a quiet life, likes to sit and watch TV or read, because she enjoys sitting on your lap.  Once she is comfortable with you, she will come and greet you and give you head bumps.  A home with windows is a must for this beauty because she loves sitting by the window and people watch. She can do this for hours.  Home without kids or mature kids that understand she doesn't like to be overwhelmed and she needs her space. She is bonded with her foster sibling, Lilith.  She has her own listing so check her out.  We want to adopt them out together because they are very bonded and Lilith helps brings Stormy out of her shy shell.  She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her vaccination.  Adoption fee for her and Lilith is $250.  If you're interested in adopting the pair, please go to www.furangelsas.com and fill out our online adoption application. April 26, 2024, 1:46 pm

Lilith is a young cat who is super active and busy all the time.  She wants to be involved in everyone's business and will investigate everything!  She loves to play with toys and her laser pointer, but her very best thing to do is wrestle with her foster sibling, Stormy.  Stormy and Lilith has become best friends in their foster home, so we are hoping to have them stay together for ever.  If you are looking for the perfect duo, they are your girls.  Their temperaments balance them so well.  (Stormy has her own posting so check her out - her dob is 1/31/21)  Lilith is vaccinated, spayed and microchipped (and so is Stormy).  Adoption fee for the pair is $250. If you're interested in adopting the pair - please go to www.furangelsas.com and fill out our online adoption applicationApril 26, 2024, 1:46 pm

Story
Hi, my name is Po, and I am 8 months old. My Mama was a Panda kitty and I look a lot like her. You can see how I got my name. I am one of five kittens from Pandas litter that was growing up in a Chicago familys backyard.We had a really nice enclosure that kept us warm and safe from Chicagos weather. The family took great care of us when they realize our Mama had babies. They provided us fresh food, litterboxes and the warmest spot to sleep away from the outdoor elements. They even reached out to a rescue so that foster family stepped in to care for us in their home.I am a short haired kitty girl with a grey tail, and I have some grey spots on my head. I look like my mom and I think I got my Mamas bravery. She had to be brave to be on her own with her babies coming any day. Im the bravest because as soon as I came into my foster home, I'm a friendly kitty and I like when people come over as I get to know them. I might seem shy at first, but I will sneak my way onto your lap.I like to lounge in a window seat, snuggle with my sibling or even with my foster familys cats. You might see some of my pictures with my sister Thumper. Who says sisters don't get along? Come on over to my foster home and you will see me & Thumper being BFFs. We hope that when we meet our forever family we get to stay together or maybe my forever home another kitty for me to snuggle with.My foster family has been so wonderful in taking care of me and my siblings. My other siblings have all found homes and now it's my turn. I haven't been around young kids or dogs. I might do ok if they don't scare me. If I get scared I might hide and run.Hope to meet you!PoPo is located in our foster home in Hanover Park. To meet Po please complete an adoption application. https://treasuredanimalrescueinc.org/application-cat-adoption/Thank you for choosing to adopt!  Please visit our website www.treasuredanimalrescueinc.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
Hi there, my name is Speckles and I'm a 1-year-old pretty Tortie. You know some Tortie's have this stigma of "tortitude"? Well not me. I'm a very quiet, lovable girl that just wants to be held.I was found in a shelter and the Warden thought I was pregnant. He saw my "round belly" and concluded there's babies. Thankfully, there were no babies, but I just had some extra love handles. How dare he announce to the world I got a round belly. You know us girls can get miffed by that weight comment.Treasured Animal Rescue waited to see (just in case) any babies grew in my round belly and thankfully, I just like food. I went to the vet, and she took good care of me and said "Speckles, you are healthy and going to have a happy life".I love looking out the window at what's going outside. I never want to be outdoors again. I like laying in the sun and feeling the warmth. I give my foster Mom head butts to say pet me and she abides. I like it when she lounges on the couch because I get to hang out with her.There are other cats here and I am ok with them. Dogs, well they sure are loud so when my foster Mom has me on her lap all the dogs are outside so I don't get spooked.I hope one day I have a family of my own that will let me be their lap kitty and I can give you all the head butts you want. Maybe one day I might show you my Tortie attitude but for now I'm just a sweet, quiet girl that wants to be loved.Can you love me?xoxo,SpecklesSpeckles is located in our foster home in Aurora.To meet this sweetie, please complete our adoption application at: https://treasuredanimalrescueinc.org/application-cat-adoption/Sorry, Treasured Animal Rescue does not adopt out of the State of IllinoisThank you for choosing to adopt!
