Story
Babou is a classic cat's cat. We adopted her from an LA shelter 7 years ago and has lived in multiple states across the US since. She adapts to new settings well as she has seen many apartments. Babs is independent and curious; loves a good scratchin' on her own terms. She does best in a calm home and gets along well with other cats, but would recommend gradually introducing them. Babou doesn't care for cat treats but LOVES lunch meat or chicken; she prefers wet food but will eat dry. Sun bathing and playing with a retractable tape measurer are her favorite hobbies. We hope that whoever takes her home will love her in the ways she needs- she is a good companion and has a lot of affection and love to give. Her new person needs to want a cat that will perch nearby and observe, but not really participate; one that prefers a gentle touch and soft voice over one that carries; and one that will pretend she's brave to go outside but is a housecat by nature. That's Babou. She a good friend.

Story
I can be shy at times but usually I like to meet the people who come in to visit, I can get a little possessive of them and swat away any of the other cats so I can have all the attention. Otherwise I will lay around and get pet for a while then go and laydown in the sun. I am not an active boy but I make up for it in cuddles and lap time, when I'm excited to see someone I give pretty gentle love bites. I would love a nice quiet home with a human that would tend to my every need, your reward will be love bites and headbutts. If you think that sounds like fun you should put in an application today!This 4 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

I really want to be your next cat! I love cuddles, neck scratches, and laying around taking it easy. Being at the shelter is really hard, I can't be around people all the time. That is what I want, to be next to a person all the time. I also like to be brushed and told how handsome I am, I know I'm handsome but its nice being told. When I see someone I like at the shelter I am known to give love bites and gentle headbutts. Additionally, I get along well with other cats. I like my roommates here, we pretty much lay around and just enjoy being near each other.This 5 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I was being taken care of by a really nice lady, but her other cats picked on me and she decided it would be best to find me a new home with the help of Safe Haven. I'm really shy and keep to myself. I like laying around, but also enjoy getting pet and brushed by visitors. At the shelter I share a room with other cats like me, we don't mind each other and get along really well, we just respect each other's boundaries. In my new home I will need time to adjust to a new place and people, and another cat with a laidback personality would probably be great. I have been know to get underfoot in my desire to keep pace with people at the shelter and almost trip them, I might not do well with people having balance issues. Please apply for me, I could be a really good boy for you if given the chance.This 1 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Not good with dogs,
Story
I came to Safe Haven in September of last year pregnant with my second litter. My kittens have all be adopted and now its just me. I am trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do now that I don't have to take care of my babies. I like to look out the window and watch bird videos, I recently moved to a new room that doesn't look out on the highway and I like it so much better...watching traffic is only so exciting. I am good in the car and I love belly rubs, head-neck scratches, brushing, and exploring. But I'm not too fond of being picked up and carried, I don't mind being on someone's lap and will help you send emails and use your computer when you're working. If you're looking for an office assistant and don't mind cat hair you should put in an application for me today.This 2 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I love exploring, being at the shelter for as long as I have been I like to breakout of my routine and run to meet all the other cats I can. Usually we have fun saying "hi" and playing through the windows. When I meet people I like getting pets and I purr up a storm, but can settle down for lap time. When I am calm, I like to sit back and watch the world around me. But I when I do play I enjoy running around with other cats and wand toys are super fun!If you have a kitty at home now, I'd probably get I with them. I'm pretty easy going and get along with most of the cats I've met at the shelter...I never initiated the hostility, just received it. I have been on outings around Jo Daviess County as a Safe Haven representative, but I don't travel well...I get car sick. But I recover pretty quickly, and want to be the center attention everywhere I go.Come and meet me! You'll be glad you did!This 2 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

I am a quiet boy that likes to take it easy by laying in the window watching the world go by, sometimes when I get visitors I let them hold me and tell me how handsome I am, and of course getting brushed is the best! I like other cats too, I have shared a room with older male cats and male kittens...I like the adult males better, they're calm like me. The younger guys all want to prove themselves, that is not for me so I'll find a nice nook to cuddle and nap in.Sometimes I can get overwhelmed when we have too many visitors and will hide from everybody. Do you want to find me? If you do, please submit an application for me. I'm a really good boy who wants to cuddle with you.This 2 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.
