Story
Sadie is a sweet, gentle 9 yr old grey and white female. She can be very vocal especially around feeding times, and is very smart, knowing how to open cabinet doors and sometimes can open room doors. Sadie loves attention but is not a lap cat. While she is very gentle she does not like to be picked up or carried. She will sit near you, but not in your lap. She is very active and loves to play with small kitty toys and laser pointers. She gets along with other cats , but my cats do not get a long with her, so sadly I have to re home this sweet baby girl. Please consider taking her home.

Story
Silly is an 8 yr old male. He loves to play and climb his cat tree. Silly is quiet, loves to lay in the sun, and is a good boy. Silly will lay on you if you laying on the couch and purr, but he only likes to be pet on his head and partway down the back. Silly still has his claws and does not want to be picked up or petted to aggressively or he will scratch or try to bite. Silly has some strange quirks, like sniffing your hair ( and may try to nibble hair) and sniffing armpits. He has deep golden eyes that seem to look into your soul. He is a great low maintenance kitty who does not need a lot of attention, but will follow you room to room to be nosey. Silly gets along just fine with his " sister" cat, but not my own two cats, so I need to rehome him. No litterbox issues for Silly. Please consider adopting Silly, thank you!

Story
Back in 2018, my now husband and I were in my parents backyard when a little kitten came up to us. We took him in and named this little stranger Storm. He's always been a layer back and funny cat. He's about 20 lbs, and we think he may be mixed with a larger breed. He is very food motivated and will definitely let you know when it's feeding time. He's caught up on all medical related vaccines. We are moving to Texas this summer and will unfortunately not be able to take him due to our living situation.

Story
Bonk is affectionately called “The Princess.” While she is very sweet, she has no problem passing on her judgement. From the very beginning, she has showed a love for watching birds outside and playing fetch (a I adopted Bonk when she was 2 months old in 2020. She was a rescued from a hoarding house. There was evidence she was peeing outside the litter box, whenever my nieces would come over. In 2021, she was diagnosed with anxiety. I added several changes to help reduce the stress (changes to the diet, medication, special litter). In 2023, I got married and moved into my husband’s home with his dog. It was a big change for her, and peeing outside the litter box continued. We would have months where she would have great behavior. However, it’s become clear that she’s not happy with us. We are looking for a home for Bonk that would fit her special needs. She needs to be the only cat in a household with just adults.

Story
Soot or "Sootsy" was my Moms cat for about 8 years until my mom passed away, she is a loving calm 9-10 yr old lap cat. She is a indoor black shorthair cat without front claws. She loves to be petted and sit in a recliner/chair with someone and be a warm snuggler. She gets along with other cats and small dogs. She is very loving to our children and other cat but has caused some issues with her special needs and needs a new home. She needs a home that does not have carpet in the area she will live, as she has digestion special needs that puts her into cycles about once a month where she vomits up, sometimes a little bit of blood. She has been to multiple vets and no solution, so we found a calm consistent food to help regulate her special needs. (Currently eating Purina indoor green bag. Tried science diet, Iams, puirina and pro biotics) She doesn't seem to be affected by the special needs but she does vomit more then a regular cat. Located in Chicagoland southwest suburbs. Travel OK

He gets excited to play with his toys and will want you to throw his toys as he goes and retrieves it. e doesn't liked to be picked up from people he doesn't know to well and sometimes will get jumpy and scared. He does like to cuddle on his own terms and will often sit in your lap when watching TV or relaxing. He loves the outdoors and has made a few escape attempts. He is upto date on his vaccines (he will need to be seen again by the vet in late summer/ early fall time). Milo is a bigger cat (almost 18lbs) and does well with most people (older kids and adults)and is quite social. He is anxious at first when adjusting to new home or other people might hiss at you of your unfamiliar to him.
