Story
Hello there... my name is Goofy. I know—it's a name that suggests playfulness and silliness, but I'm still learning how to embrace that side of myself. You might notice my tabby coat first, or perhaps your eyes will drift to my uniquely crumpled ear. It's okay to look. That little fold is a souvenir from an old infection I battled long ago. It's part of my story, though not the whole of who I am. I watch the world carefully from safe corners, trying to make sense of a place that hasn't always been kind to cats like me. I don't mind the everyday sounds of a home—the television, music, or even the vacuum cleaner. But hands reaching toward me? That's when my heart races and I seek shelter. There's something about those approaching fingers that awakens old memories I'm trying to forget. Please don't mistake my retreat for rejection—there's a universe of love waiting inside me for someone patient enough to discover it. When I feel safe, small miracles happen. My purr, though quiet, is steady and true. I might venture a little closer each day, measuring my courage in inches rather than miles. And canned food? That's my weakness, my bridge to connection. Those moments when you place my special dish down and step back—allowing me to enjoy it without pressure—those are the moments when I begin to believe that perhaps not all hands are meant to harm. I would thrive with a social cat friend who could show me the ropes, someone to translate this human world into language I understand. Watching another cat accept gentle pets helps me imagine a day when I might do the same. They would be my ambassador to your world, my teacher in the art of being touched with kindness. What I need most is time. Time that isn't measured in days or weeks but in slow blinks, gentle voices, and consistent respect for my boundaries. I need someone who understands that healing isn't linear—that some days I might allow you closer and the next day need more space, but that doesn't mean we're not making progress. I may never be the cat who leans into every touch or jumps into laps uninvited. But for the person who sees beauty in the moment I finally accept a gentle stroke along my back, who finds joy in earning my trust one finger at a time—for that person, I will be a reminder that love, even when it comes slowly, is worth the wait. Could you be the one with patience in your heart and compassion in your hands? I'm ready whenever you are. With hope and whiskers, GoofyMay 13, 2025, 12:58 pm

Meet Furrbelle! Bonjour! I'm Furrbelle, and yes, I AM aware that I'm absolutely stunning. Thank you for noticing! I'm approximately 2 months old and I'm the smallest of my siblings (Furry and Furrball), which basically makes me the princess of this trio. But don't let my dainty size and good looks fool you - I've got BIG personality packed into this petite, pretty package! Just because I'm small and gorgeous doesn't mean I'm delicate! I can play with the best of them - pouncing, chasing, and causing delightful mayhem right alongside my brothers. I might be little, but I hold my own! And when it comes to mealtime? I show up ready to EAT. This belle needs her fuel! Some might say I have the perfect balance: I'm beautiful enough to be a model, playful enough to keep you entertained, and food-motivated enough to be easily trained (let's be honest, I'm a genius). I'm basically the whole package in a small, adorable form. Now about my luscious fur - will I grow up to be a long-haired beauty or a sleek short-haired stunner? The suspense is KILLING everyone! Either way, I'm going to be magnificent. It's just science. I'm looking for a home where someone will appreciate that the best things come in small packages, and where I can continue being the prettiest kitten in the room while also being a playful, food-loving companion.

Story
Meet Furry! Hi there! I'm Furry, and I'm here to tell you that I am LIVING MY BEST LIFE, and I need you to know about it! I'm approximately 2 months old, and honestly? I think I might be training for the Kitten Olympics. My events include: Speed Climbing (anything vertical is a challenge), The Flying Leap (furniture? conquered.), and my personal favorite - the 3 AM Zoomies Sprint. I'm the most active of my siblings (Furrball and Furrbelle), which means I'm always the first one to investigate any new sound, smell, or suspiciously dangling shoelace. Got a cat tree? I've already climbed it in my mind. Curtains? Those are just vertical racetracks waiting to happen. Now, I know what you're wondering - with a name like Furry and this absolutely magnificent fluff I'm sporting, will I grow up to be a majestic long-haired cat or a sleek short-haired stunner? Plot twist: NOBODY KNOWS! I'm keeping everyone in suspense. It's part of my charm. Think of me as a surprise package that gets even better over time. What I DO know is that I'm a bundle of energy wrapped in mystery fur, and I need a home where someone appreciates a kitten who believes the floor is lava and every moment is an adventure. Ready to add some chaos (the cute kind) to your life? I promise excellent entertainment value! Available through foster-to-adopt program November 20, 2025, 12:19 am

Meet Furrball! Hello, wonderful humans! I'm Furrball, and I'm here to tell you that I have PERFECTED the art of living. I'm approximately 2 months old, and I've figured out the secret to happiness: it's a three-part formula consisting of PLAY, EAT, and CUDDLE. In that order. Or any order, really. I'm flexible! Let me break down my daily schedule for you: Morning: Play! Chase my siblings (Furry and Furrina), pounce on toys, maybe wrestle a shoelace Mid-morning: Eat! Food is amazing and I have OPINIONS about it Late morning: Cuddle time! I will purr on your lap until we both fall asleep Afternoon: Repeat all of the above I'm basically the total package - I've got the playful kitten energy you want, the appetite that shows I'm healthy and growing, AND the snuggle factor that makes you feel like the chosen one when I curl up on you. Some cats make you work for their affection. Not me! I'm generous with my cuddles. Now, about my fabulous fluff situation - yes, I look incredibly furry right now, but will I be long-haired or short-haired as an adult? IT'S A MYSTERY! Consider me your fuzzy surprise package. Either way, I'm going to be adorable. I'm looking for a home where someone appreciates a well-rounded kitten who knows that life is meant to be enjoyed to the fullest - preferably with snacks and belly rubs involved.

Story
Zen is a mysterious and elusive feline who longs for a quiet and peaceful environment to call his own. He is a cautious cat–hey, it’s a heavy world; we get it–but his caution is unmatched by his love for observing the world from a window and the company of other cats to bring him comfort. Zen's superpower of invisibility perfectly captures his ability to blend into the background, making him a master of finding secluded spots to relax in.  Zen kindly requests to be adopted into a home with his sister, Rain, to whom he is wholly devoted. These two shy cats need each other to help them feel comfortable and brave. He enjoys the company of other cats as well, and is looking for a calm, quiet household with someone who will move at his speed and help him slowly emerge from his shell. If you are seeking a companion who will appreciate the simple joys of a serene household and the company of other feline friends, Zen may be the perfect match for you. With a bit of patience and understanding, Zen has the potential to blossom into a content and loving companion who will share his hidden charm with those who earn his trust.

Story
Meet Sally, the sweetest, silliest, and most enthusiastic kitten! She is so ready to liven up her forever home with her spunky personality. Sally originally came into foster care after she was rescued from a hoarding situation with 20 cats in a tiny apartment. You can tell how grateful Sally is to be out of there and on to bigger and better things! Sally is energetic and athletic, often loving to chase toys, wrestle with a kicker toy, and finding all sorts of places to adventure to around the house. Sally has plenty of kitten energy, but when she tuckers out she will find you on the couch and hunker down for a cuddle and snooze. Because Sally was previously in a less than ideal home environment, she has been working on her courage and does best with trusted humans, although she will certainly warm up to new faces with extra treats and patience. Sally's ideal home is one with another kitty pal to keep her company, given she is so energetic and is very used to being around other cats in her prior home. For that reason, we are only seeking applications for Sally to join a home with at least one other cat pal to keep her company and show her the ropes of the good life. She has thrived in foster care with the current resident kitty as well. Sally would likely do best with either an adults only home or a home with older children who understand that she sometimes needs a minute to get comfortable with new spaces and people. Sally has so much to offer and you will never be bored having her in your life! Please apply for Sally today! Seeking applicants within a 3 hour driving radius of Chicago only.  WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A SCREENER.

Story
Did you love the animatronic animals, themed menu, and twice an hour thunderstorms of the Rainforest Cafe?? Well, now you can bring Rainforest Cafe to your home in the shape of a gorgeous, friendly, and sweet kitty!  Rainforest Cafe originally came into rescue as a heavily pregnant stray who kept showing up at a good samaritan's workplace. They reached out for rescue support, and she was brought inside to have her babies. Rainforest has five beautiful kittens who she has done a wonderful job raising (Black Bear Diner, Chuck E Cheese, Bubba Gump Shrimp, Hard Rock Cafe, and Señor Frog). While she was a great mom, Rainforest Cafe is just a young kitty herself and really wants the chance to live her best life without the extra responsibility of being a mom. She loves cuddles and sitting in your lap, happy to be carried around the house as well. She goes crazy for catnip toys (a catnip banana is a requirement of her forever home!!) and is an easy going and relaxed girl. She is pretty good at self entertaining, but will always jump and chase a wand toy when offered.  In a forever home, Rainforest Cafe would be happy in a lot of environments. She would do well best as the only pet, especially with humans are home often to spoil her. She has not spent time with dogs or small children in foster care. With her gentle and sweet personality, she would probably do well with cat-savvy kiddos.  This girly is so special, we know she will bring so much joy to her forever family! Please apply for her today! You can meet Rainforest Cafe in person at the Petsmart at 1101 S Canal St in Chicago!
