Story
Meet two sweet orange brothers who found their way to us after being discovered just 3 blocks apart in Pilsen of Chicago. They are approximately 8 months old and have been fully vetted: both are now neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated and ready for their forever home.Despite being found as strays, both kittens are remarkably friendly and comfortable with people, suggesting they were once in a home environment. We have been searching for their original owner for several weeks with no luck, so we are now hoping to find them a loving new family.These two are bonded brothers, and we would love to place them together: 2 cats keep each other company, play together, and make the transition to a new home so much easier for everyone. The adoption fee is $150 for both boys together (a discount from $100 each), so keeping them as a pair is the best deal for everyone involved!If you're interested in adopting just one, please reach out and we can discuss. They have so much love to give!

Kenai is one of two of my cats. He’s a sweet, shy boy. He loves attention and cuddles and being pet. He likes to hide. He can play fetch with bottle caps. He just deserves more attention than I can give him right now.

Story
Joe showed up on our porch one day and was getting beat up by other strays in the area. We took him into PAWS to get treated, chipped, and up to date on his shots. He is roughly 2 years old. Joe is a sweet and cuddly boy who loves head bumps and belly scratches. He is very playful and loves a good ribbon or ball toy. He is very timid around other cats. He doesn’t seem to fight unless another cat provokes him so a no cat home would be best.

Story
I acquired Dandelion from a Petsmart. She is so cute and her fur is so pretty. I asked to see her and we bonded immediately. She loves to cuddle. She is very playful and very smart. She likes to tussle with my male cat. He is a Tabby/ tabby mix. She is territorial with my female cat who is not a tabby, don’t know if either of those is the problem but they don’t get along. I have had Dandelion now for two years and can no longer stand the tenseness between the two. I love Dandelion very much but I want my first cat to be happy again. Feliway diffusers haven’t helped. There are plenty resources for all 3 cats but she and the other cat just don’t get along. She is very active and curious. She rarely ever meows, I got her at 10 months old. She only meows when she needs help. If she gets trapped in a closet for example. She runs behind me in the laundry room and I don’t notice and I pulled the door back closed. She is a precious little fur baby. So so sweet!!

Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Daffodil is a loyal, affectionate, playful cat who loves any & all of his toys and snuggling next to his human(s). He'll make a great pet in a home where somebody is nearby during the day as he really enjoys being near you, but he also does well if he needs to be left alone. He is conversational and will let you know when he wants to eat or play. A house with accessible windows or a nice perch would be ideal, since he loves to climb up and watch the world go by. He loves wet food and is very neat with the litter box. He’s really the perfect cat companion! Daffodil is one of our special care animals due to chronic upper respiratory infections and gingivitis, which can require a little extra vet care, but such a perfectly charming guy is absolutely worth the extra investment. Daffodil is currently in foster! If you're interested in adopting Daffodil, please fill out an application at this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Cat Make sure to include his name and ID number in the application! A staff member will reach out to you shortly to arrange a meet and greet!

Story
Meet Kitty! Kitty came to us in August when her ownder could no longer care for. While she had a difficult time adadpting to shelter life, she has come out of her shell and done very well while in her foster home! Her foster has noted that she loves to play fetch but will only consistently return one specific fuzzy ball, which is her favorite toy! She sleeps at the foot of their bed at night, but she gets up to snack on her food sometimes! She loves to come up to people on her own, and can be selective about being pet but she appreciates when it is on her own terms! Kitty is still getting acclimated to loud noises, and tends to hide but her foster noted that she does recover quickly and is actively working on her resilience:) Kitty loves when the TV is left on for her so she can get some background noise to help her feel more comfortable. If you're looking for a sweet and loving lady, Kitty is your girl! Interested in adopting? Please fill out an application at this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Cat Please specify the animal's name and ID number (if the ID number is not entered, we may mix up the animal you're interested in!) A staff member will reach out to you asap to discuss your application.

Good with cats, Declawed, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Buddy! This big guy is very sweet and loves being around people.  Buddy lived with another cat before but there didn't seem to be enough space for the two of them.  In his foster home, he took a few days to acclimate and come out of his shell and within just a few days he turned into a very sweet, affectionate companion. As he becomes more comfortable, he greets visitors at the door, introduces himself by soliciting head scratches and then plays by himself or retreats for a nap.  He is a bit on the heavy side but since he started to play more and be more active, he will be in good shape quickly.  He can be a finicky eater and is not very treat motivated.  Buddy loves catnip, pet grass and feather wands and is a curious, polite boy who enjoys a chat on occasion.  His litterbox behavior is excellent and he is overall a gem of a cat.  Sadly, Buddy is front declawed and at times his front paws seem to be a bit sensitive. He still likes opportunities to pretend to scratch. He always enjoys a head scratch and at times a belly rub and often comes when called. Although he did not do well with another cat in his previous home (the reasons are unknown), he is cautiously curious about meeting the neighbor's (male) cat and dog. Buddy will bring his own carrier, litterbox, blanket, toys and a month's worth of his (currently) preferred food when he moves in with his forever family. Buddy is blossoming in a foster home at the moment! If you're interested in adopting, fill out an application at this link: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ACIL/Cat Make sure to include his name and ID number on your application! A staff member will reach out to you shortly about setting up a meet and greet!
