Bolt is a very scared cat, I have been trying to get him out of his shell with no luck. When he does come out he is a VERY lovable cat. He loves to play with strings, and cat springs. Both cats are very nice and are shy. They love treats and are food motivated. They love to play with laser pointers, and string toys. And they both LOVE catnip

Hi there. Thanks for checking me out—I’m so excited to meet you! Looking to bring lots of fun and excitement into your home? Kittens like me are the best of both worlds—playful and full of energy, yet also sweet and cuddly! I’ll keep you entertained with my playful antics, and when I’m ready to wind down, I’m all about snuggles. My cute face may be hard to resist, but keep in mind, I’ll need plenty of your time and attention as I grow. Exploring your home and discovering new adventures is what I do best—are you ready for the fun challenge? Kittens like me thrive in pairs, meaning double the trouble, double the fun, and double the love! What could be better than one kitten? Two, of course! Adopt me with another kitten and receive $45.00 off the combined adoption fee! Bringing home two kittens gives them a playmate, helps keep each other active and entertained, and fills your home with even more love. Come meet me in person during our adoption hours, or reach out to info@ahconnects.org or call 847-697-2880 x: 0. Our friendly staff will be happy to help. All of our cats and kittens go home: • Spayed or neutered • Microchipped • Up to date on core vaccines • Protected with flea and tick preventatives • With a 3.5 lb bag of Iams cat food • And a free vet exam at a participating veterinary partner

Story
Meet August! Looking for a handsome companion with a gentle soul? Meet August! This gorgeous 4-year-old orange and white boy, is a sensitive guy who takes time to adjust to changes in his environment. New surroundings can be overwhelming for him, so he will need a patient adopter who understands the importance of a slow transition. August would benefit from a two-week decompression period in his new home before being given full access to the entire house. This will help him feel secure, build confidence, and reduce the chance of him becoming overwhelmed. August has a history of noise sensitivity and situational anxiety. When he becomes overstimulated or startled, he may occasionally hiss as a way of communicating that he needs space. However, he has shown a different side during his veterinary visits—vet staff noted that August was completely calm, cooperative, and gentle during examinations. He is currently doing well with daily anxiety medication, which helps him feel more comfortable and successful. August may be able to live with another cat, but he will need a slow, thoughtful introduction to help ensure a positive relationship. A calm home, patience, and an adopter willing to let him adjust at his own pace will help August thrive. If you’re looking for a beautiful cat who just needs someone to understand him and give him the time he needs, August may be the perfect match. Stop in and meet my cute self in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you. All of our cats and kittens go home spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on their core vaccines, as well as flea and tick preventatives. Each adoption also includes a 3.5-pound bag of Iams cat food and a free vet exam at one of our participating veterinary partners.

Story
Sam is a sweet 1-year-old tabby who’s looking for a patient and understanding forever home. She’s a little shy and scared at first, but with a calm environment and time to adjust, Sam’s true personality will shine through. She may need some extra reassurance, but once she feels safe, she’ll show you her softer side and could become your most loyal companion. Sam enjoys quiet spaces where she can feel secure, and while she might not be the most outgoing right away, she’ll appreciate your gentle attention and patience as she settles in. She’s a beautiful and loving girl who just needs a little extra time to warm up. Sam might take some time to trust, but she’s worth the wait if you’re looking for a shy but sweet friend to share your home with. Could you be the calm, loving person Sam needs to help her feel safe and loved? Stop in and meet my cute self in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you. Our cats and kittens go home spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on core vaccines, flea, and tick preventatives.
