Story
Greetings from Rudy! Rudy is the sweetest mixture of lazy sunshine napper and kitty zoomie monster. He’s joined the local neighborhood watch so that he can bring you back the news from your street. He becomes attached to his humans he lives with and is the perfect Robin to your Batman any day. Rudy would do well in any home who can give him all the attention he needs (i.e. cherish him for the beautiful soul he is). He’s a young child and needs to be adopted with one of his siblings (Johnny, Tony or Vinny) or into a home with another young cat. Rudy is a playful cat who loves to break up his play time with a nap on your lap. He’s the best snuggle buddy and you’ll never have to sleep alone once you invite him into your home. He’ll greet you when you wal in the door and be your closest companion. Rudy is looking for his forever cuddle buddy today! .

Story
It’s unstoppable Tony! This outgoing cat is the life of the party. He’s a little pocket of joy and brings his playfulness to every moment in life. He’s never met a human he didn’t like. He loves playing with anyone, and is particularly adoring of refining his hunting skills with toy mice and feather wands.  Tony would do amazingly well in a busy home with a family who can give him the love and affection (and attention) he thrives on. Tony needs to go to a home with another young cat or be adopted with one of his brothers (Johnny, Rudy or Vinny). Tony would do well with children, but needs to have some calming time so he doesn’t get himself or the children too excited. He is a curious cat who likes time to explore, and once he’s done his investigating, he loves coming to hang out with you and the other human and animal residents in the house.  Tony is a sweet, enthusiastic fella and can sometimes get lost in his play. A simple redirect towards a toy will help him stay on track. He could be a sniffing cat and with a little training, could help you sniff out your missing car keys or sunglasses. Food, however, is the way to this guy’s heart for sure. Tony brings love and joy wherever he goes and he’s looking for a home today where he can share his love for years to come.

Leo is a very cuddly cat. Purrs a ton. Has been great with my small dog. He and Josie have been together since they were born. He adjusts to change fairly quickly. He’s a great companion. It breaks my heart to rehome but I am moving and can’t take him. He deserves a loving home.

Story
Sheldon is an 11 year old cat that I adopted from a shelter in Chicago about 4 years ago. He is a very playful, active, snuggly cat. He loves to play with string, laser pointers, and his stuffed pet rat “Pancho”. He loves to be held and snuggle all the time. He’s never been aggressive, hissed, or scratched people. He’s scared of dogs and gets along with cats with the proper introduction. He is just an overall a very sweet affectionate cat. He’s never had any vet issues or been sick.
