Available Cats

Charlotte is a small, black and white female--about 7 months old.
She's a fiesty little girl--she's had to be because she came to us with a broken front leg and had to live with a cast for a while. She's healed and better than new.
Charlotte is a very active little girl, so if you are looking for an playful companion, Charlotte may be the the girl for you. She would be best in a cat experienced household.

If you like big cats, Fuji may be your guy. Fuji is a very curious, playful, and energetic 2 year old. He likes other cats and, we think, dogs too. He loves to explore, but can get so excited at times that we think he'd be best without small kids, in a cat-experienced household. Fuji is seen by appointment. Please call (630)378-4208 line 2 to meet this special guy today.

Marcell is a beautiful dude with a very easy-going personality. His fur is either snow-white or coal-black, nothing in-between, and he will amble up for a scratch when you approach. Marcell will be a wonderful addition to your home; come on out and meet him!

Meet beautiful Nova, a jet-black adult girl who loves to
cuddle and be petted. While Nova loves her human companions, she really
doesn't like to be around other cats - she needs to be the only cat in
the household. So if you're a "one-cat" type of person, swing by and
meet her - Nova would love to see you!

Here's Lonnie, a gorgeous guy with a sweet, even-tempered
disposition. Lonnie loves to be around his human companions, but
doesn't do very well around other cats; Lonnie will need to be the only
cat in the household.

Meet Rocco, a sweet snuggler who also knows his way around
a ball and feather toy. Rocco is a classic "people cat" that truly
enjoys his human companions, but he doesn't appreciate other cats.
Rocco needs to be the first and only cat in the household, since other
cats' scents stress him out a bit - fortunately, his sweet disposition
more than makes up for it!

Meet Courier, a very outgoing, personable dude who likes to
split his time between playing with his favorite toy and cuddling with
his people. Courier has a lot of soft, luxurious fur, so be sure to
keep a brush handy for a daily grooming session.

Meet Lovie, a great girl whose name fits her very well. Lovie enjoys
hanging around with her human companions, and loves to be held and stroked.
When you pick her up, she immediately begins to purr loud enough for
everyone else in the room to hear. Lovie requires a daily pill for her
thyroid condition, and she's front-declawed.

Meet Ethel, a little beauty born in February, 2007. As you can
see from her picture, Ethel loves to be held, will hold on to your arms or
shoulder when you pick her up. She's a quiet little girl who prefers hugs
to toys, so if you're looking for a good lap cat, you should come by and
meet her.

Here's Ranger, proving once and for all that he has no front
claws. Ranger is a great all-around dude - he likes to play with a ball or
toy mouse, and is always up for an ear scratch or back rub. Something about
Ranger tells me that deep-down, he's a goofball that will give you plenty of
"cute cat" pictures, so be sure to keep your camera ready!

Meet Cashmere, a snow-white beauty with soft, silky fur and a love of being
held. Cashmere was born in July, 2002, and prefers to sit in laps and
lounge around rather than play with toys. If you're looking for a
lap-warmer, don't miss Cashmere. Cashmere needs a daily pill for her
thyroid condition.

Daytra is a charming girl born in February 2008. She's a curious little cat
- she's quick to focus her attention on your hand or moving feather, and she
loves to sniff around to check out new surroundings. She definitely loves
to be held and petted, and enjoys playtime with her toys.

Meet Marigold, a quiet, shy girl born in May, 2006. Marigold has
a silky, soft coat and a cute multi-colored nose - she's absolutely
gorgeous. She starts off a little bit shy, but once you get to know her,
she appreciates a good ear scratch. Marigold's not much for playing - she'd
rather find a warm, sunny spot and take a nap.

Don't mind Tanya - the bright camera flash just made her
blink. Her beautiful yellow-green eyes are truly striking, but you'll have
to take my word for it. Or better yet, come and see for yourself! Tanya's
a great girl born in August, 2008. She splits her time equally between her
rattling ball and her human companion - she enjoys attention, and loves an
ear scratch.

Meet Sudoku, a gorgeous Siamese beauty with blue eyes that will melt your
heart. Sudoku isn't much of a player, but will definitely curl up in your
lap for a nice nap. Sudoku enjoys her human companions, but does not get
along well with other cats, so she'll need to be the only cat in the
household. Sudoku was born in December, 2005.

Meet Whisper, a gentle and nonchalant grey tabby that loves to lounge around
on a nice, soft spot. As you can see, she digs a good ear and cheek scratch
- she leans right in and enjoys the attention. Somewhere along the line she
lost the tip of her left ear, but you'll hardly notice once she snuggles
into your lap. Whisper was born in March, 2008.

Samantha is a personable girl born in April, 2008. She meows for your
attention when you enter the room, and keeps asking for you to pet her until
you do. She's extremely fond of ear and back rubs, and she'll substitute
anything vertical if your hand isn't available.

Kayla was right in the middle of her fifth daily nap when the camera came
around to take her picture, so you'll have to forgive the somewhat groggy
expression on her face. Kayla was born in April, 2008, and she's usually an
active little kitty who enjoys time with a toy mouse. But all bets are off
when it's naptime!

Meet Isabella, the current shelter socialite born in April, 2008. Isabella
is extremely fond of human attention, and she jumps right into your arms as
soon as you're within her reach. She loves to snuggle into your shoulder,
and appreciates a good scratching. If you offer her a feather toy, she'll
oblige by swatting at it. Isabella is definitely a sweet little girl!

Zoe is a sweet little darling born in July, 2008. She craves attention
however she can get it - she enjoys batting at a feather toy as much as she
loves an ear scratch. She's also a bit of a talker - once she catches your
eye, she meows for a petting.

Chicory is a laid-back male born in February 2003. He's definitely a
'lounger' - he prefers to sleep in a warm, sunny spot and isn't much of a
toy kitty. He loves having his ears scratched, and will offer up his head
when you reach out.

Here's Jethro, a great dude with a beautiful long gray coat and gorgeous
green eyes. Jethro takes a little bit of time to warm up to you, but after
he gets to know you he absolutely loves to be petted and have his head
scratched. When he thinks no one is looking, he might just play with a
ball. But only if the coast is clear!

Tatiana: Tatiana is a young female tortie. She's a nice little girl who,
like many others, is ready for her forever home. Like many torties, Tatiana
has a mind of her own, but is very sweet. She's fine with other cats, though
she may not be a playmate for them.

Mason: Mason is a curious little guy. Here you can see him trying to figure
out what's happening in the cage below him. When he's not checking out his
surroundings, he's probably in a lap or curled up on a warm, sunny spot.

Smokey Joe: Gimme five, dude! Allright! Smokey Joe is a cool guy - scratch
him behind the ears and he's wrapped around your finger. Toss him a ball
and he'll ignore it until you look away - then he's all over it.

Flo: Here's Flo, chilling out for the camera. Flo came to us as a very
young mother, but now that her kittens are independent (and proud of it!),
she's ready for someone to take her home. She's a real sweetheart who loves
to be petted.

Cermak (cat): Cermak is a confident guy who loves to explore and poke his
head into new places. He'd much rather check out the latest empty box than
play with a mouse.

Ethan: Ethan is a good kitty who loves to soak up love and attention. When
you come into the room, she perks right up and comes over to be picked up
and hugged. Ethan isn't much of a player, but if you wave a feather toy in
front of her she just might give it a swat or two.

Ogden is so awesome, he's got a whole avenue named after him! Ogden
Avenue is a busy road, but Ogden Cat is a laid-back, easy-going dude that
loves to be petted and held. He comes right up to you when you approach,
and he's especially fond of an ear scratch.

Sudsy: Sudsy has two of the biggest, most beautiful, soulful eyes you'll
ever see on a cat, and she has the personality to match. She's docile and
loving, and she adores a nice steady lap on which to curl up.

Brock: Here's little Brock, sitting pretty for his picture. Brock loves to
run around and play with his littermates, but he doesn't squirm too much
while you hold him. Perhaps his dream is to grow up to be a champion Lap
Cat?

Clouseau: Clouseau is a recent and young addition to the shelter. Like any
kitten, Clouseau loves to run around and play, but she doesn't seem to like
roughhousing with his littermates - she prefers to play with toys and play
'gotchya' from behind the bed. She certainly comes a-runnin' when she sees
her favorite people.

Hugs: Hugs is as cute as a button, and more fun than a barrel of monkeys!
She's the first one at the door when it's attention time, and she's
generally the one who instigates the playing sessions with her littermates.
Cute, lovable, playful - what more is there to say?

Kameron: Kameron's thinking, 'you know, I could reach that feather if you'd
just let me jump up on your head!' Kameron's definitely a clown, so make
sure you have your camera nearby when he's playing.

Kendal: Kendal is the 'cool kitty' of the litter, but he's also the explorer
of the group. He just has to check out every new toy, and you'll usually
find him on top of the kitty tower. But he always maintains his chilled-out
state, even when he's up high.

Kisses: Meet Kisses, a beautiful little kitten with both snow-white and
coal-black fur. Kisses knows how to charm her people, and she's also quite
adept at throwing toys in the air and catching them. She's a sight to
behold, so you should come by and behold her!

Cheyenne: Cheyenne is a little cutie who loves to play with her littermates
and whatever toy she can get her paws on. When you approach, she drops
whatever she's doing and clambers to be the first one in your arms - what a
sweetheart!

Van: Van looks like he might be part Panda bear. Don't worry, he's 100%
kitten and more like a teddy bear than a Panda! Van likes to cuddle, and
he'll snuggle into your arms when you pick him up. He's enthusiastic when
he plays with his toys, so definitely keep your camera ready!

REMEMBER: A cat is not a toy or an object, it is a living, loving, caring, FEELING being. Adoption means making him/her an important part of your family, and committing to it's care for ALL of the rest of it's life.

Note: There are cats still waiting for a space in our shelter. The ones pictured here are safe, but the ones that are still waiting have a very limited amount of time. Remember, adopting a pet opens a space and saves another life. You have saved another life.
