Story
My friend could no longer care for the cat and moved states, so I am a temporary foster. I cannot keep her long-term due to my lifestyle and allergies, so I cannot give her the care she deserves. Coco is 6 years old, mild-mannered, food-motivated, and typically quiet. She is cautious but sweet and loves jingly toys. I am hoping she can go to a home with someone or a family who only travels a few times a year, as opposed to weekly/monthly, and can love on her and bond with her.

Story
Boots is a 5-year-old orange tabby who is neutered and has the sweetest personality. He is incredibly affectionate, cuddly, and loving. He absolutely loves being around people, receiving attention, and snuggling up with his humans. One of his favorite things to do is climb onto my lap and curl up with me. He's the type of cat who just wants to be close to you and will happily lay with you for hours. He's a gentle, friendly boy with so much love to give. I'm looking for a safe, loving, and stable forever home where Boots will be treated like family and receive all the love and attention he deserves. He's such a special cat, and my biggest priority is finding someone who will cherish him as much as I do.

Story
Anduin came to us in 2021 when he was roughly a year old. His playful nature, curiosity, and love for lap naps won us over quickly.  He is a very social cat who loves being part of the day! However, as our daughter has grown into a boisterous toddler, he has become very stressed. We want to find him a calmer home where he can feel safe again.Anduin is:• Social and vocal (loves greeting friends and family)• Playful and curious (enjoys bird watching and playtime)• Lap-loving and affectionate• Neutered, microchipped, and litter box trained• Managed for FLUTD (requires a prescription diet)Last summer we had our daughter. As she has become an active toddler, Anduin has made it clear that our home is now a stressful environment for him. We've worked with our vet to help him feel safe, but he truly needs a home without young children. We love him so much and hope to find someone who will appreciate his social personality!$50 rehoming fee includes remaining prescription food & favorite toys.

Story
Oscar is an orange and white striped Tabby. This little guy was found and brought to our local animal care and control in early September 2024. His birthday is guesstimated to be around September 1st. He and his littermates: Ashley, Billy, Bob, Blue, Fox, Jeff, and Smoke joined our rescue on September 27, 2024. Oscar is currently living in a home with other cats and dogs. Oscar spends his day playing hide and seek. He is a quiet cat. He is litter box trained and not very needy. His favorite time of the day is meal-time. Adoption Process Caring Animal Rescue Inc believes that every animal deserves a good home, but we also believe that not every animal is right for every home. We take the time to learn about an animal's behavior and match it with the lifestyle of potential adopters. All applicants must submit an online adoption application. You must provide verifiable vet references, verifiable address match, and character references. If you list that you are the owner of a home, we will verify property records. If you list that you are a tenant, we will verify that pets are allowed on your lease agreement with your tenant. By applying to adopt, you are agreeing that we have permission to contact your vet, landlord, and character references. If you do not agree with our screening process, please do not apply. Applicants must agree to our screening processes before a meet and greet, and at-home visit is scheduled. All existing animals within the home must be up to date with vaccinations and spayed/ neutered. All kittens under 9 months old will be adopted in pairs unless there is an existing cat in the home. Completing our application does not guarantee that you will be matched with one of our animals. We are under no obligation to disclose our reason(s) for our decision. Please note: Our adoption fees will vary. Our Adoption Process: 1. Please apply here: https://www.caringanimalrescueinc.com/adoption-form We require applications to be completed in their entirety. Any application with questions not answered fully will not be considered complete and will not be processed. 2. Please note that we are volunteers. We do not have any paid staff. All applications are processed outside of our normal non-rescue jobs. An application does not guarantee approval of adoption. Our decision is based on what is the best fit for our dogs and cats. We will call your character references, landlord if applicable, as well as your vet and any other necessary calls needed to approve or deny an application. 3. Phone or email interview. We will notify you if your application is approved. 4. Meet and greet - we will only schedule meet and greets for those who have passed steps 1-3. We ask that you come to our facility for the initial meet and greet. If you have children, roommates, or other dogs, they must also be present. 5. Home visit/ Pet meet and greet - we want to make sure that all humans and pets are a good match! Due to the requirement of home visits, we are currently adopting only 25 miles or less of our location. The distance is at our discretion, as we must factor in gas and round-trip travel time. We are not currently adopting out-of-state. We have chosen a small radius near our facility to provide support to our adopted animals and their new families. Caring Animal Rescue Inc. does not have any paid staff. All monies, adoption fees, donations, etc., go directly to paying for the shelter and care of the animals in our rescue. If all goes well at the home visit, the pet can stay, and we will move on to step 6. 6. Adoption Finalization - sign the adoption contract and pay the adoption fee - we accept cash, checks, Venmo, or PayPal. Please note that there is an additional processing fee for PayPal and Venmo. What does your adoption fee cover? Dogs: Age-appropriate vaccinations such as Rabies ( must be 3-4 months of age determined by our vet), DA2PP, and Bordetella. Spay/ Neuter Heartworm Snap Test for dogs 6 months and older. Microchip Deworming Flea/Tick, HW meds, and antibiotics (if needed) while in our care. Cats Age-appropriate vaccinations such as Rabies ( must be 3-4 months of age, determined by our vet) and FVRCP vaccinations. Spay/ Neuter Microchip Deworming Flea/Tick and antibiotics ( if needed) while in our care.

Story
Hi, I’m Gaia — a 6-year-old white and gray tabby with a gentle spirit, a soft heart, and a surprisingly playful side. My life hasn’t always been easy. I came in as a stray kitten through Skokie Animal Control and have been adopted and returned twice, never because of anything I did wrong, but because life threw some hard situations at the people who loved me. Through it all, I’ve stayed sweet, calm, and hopeful that my real forever home is still out there. Right now, I’m on a positive health journey. I’m working on losing weight and getting stronger, and I’m doing great with the extra TLC I’m receiving. I’m on a prescription diet to help prevent bladder stones, and with consistency and care, I’m feeling better every day. I can be a little shy at first and do best with calm, deliberate movements, sudden surprises aren’t really my thing. But once I trust you? Oh, I trust you. I love pets, brushing, being picked up, and yes… I am absolutely a lap cat. I’m also famous in my foster home for dramatically flopping over and rolling onto my back for belly rubs, sometimes directly in your path, just to make sure you don’t miss the opportunity. I’m playful and engaged, especially when it comes to wand toys, laser toys (the kind with fun shapes!), glitter balls, and anything involving catnip. Interactive play is my favorite, and I’ll happily chase, pounce, and then settle in close for some quiet companionship. I’m looking for a peaceful, loving home with someone patient and kind. A person who understands that a shy hello can turn into deep affection and a whole lot of belly rub requests. If you’re looking for a low-key, loving companion with a playful streak and a heart of gold, I’d really love to meet you. With love, Gaia 💛

Story
Michael and Pam are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. That’s what she said! 😉 I’m Michael, and I’m ready to be the regional manager of your heart! My sister Pam and I are a bonded pair of super-sweet, affectionate kittens who believe there’s no such thing as too much attention. I love being close to my people, whether that means snuggling in your lap, getting lots of pets, or climbing right onto your shoulders so I can be as close to your face as possible. Personal space? Never heard of it! I’m also a big fan of giving kisses, and when I’ve had my fill of cuddles, I’m ready to get down to business with my favorite string toy or a game of chase with balls. I’m friendly, outgoing, and ready to make myself at home with my new family. My sister Pam is my partner in crime, and we’re looking for a forever home together. We’ll need cat trees and cozy perches where we can survey our kingdom (and maybe plot our next prank). If you’re looking for two lovable, cuddly kittens who will keep you entertained and shower you with affection, Pam and I are ready for our very own happy ending. No awkward office meetings required!

Eileen and Wally are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Hi there! I’m Eileen, a curious girl who likes to keep tabs on everything my people are doing. If you’re moving around the house, chances are I’ll be right there investigating! I especially love checking out what’s happening on the other side of a closed door. I’ll even slide my paws underneath and feel around to see if I can reach you. Who says a closed door has to stop the fun? I’m a friendly, playful girl who loves chasing toys, and springs are among my favorites. I’m happy to be held for a little while, but I’m usually too busy and wiggly to sit still for a long cuddle session. There’s just so much to explore! I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but once I’m comfortable, my curious and playful personality shines. I’m also comfortable with children and enjoy being petted and brushed. I’m looking for a loving forever home with my bonded buddy, Wally. We each have our own special personalities, and we’re ready to bring twice the love and fun to the right family. If you’re looking for a pair of wonderful feline companions, we might just be your perfect match! Love, Eileen 🐾
