5-25-09

In the words of his foster dad, Finnegan is a wonderful cat. He is a little over a year old, a beautiful light orange and white tabby.

"Finnegan is very well adjusted to home life. He loves to sleep near me in my office when I work, sometimes under my feet and other times in the window sill where he can look out. (he especially likes the window sills!). He likes to “talk” to you when you look into his eyes. He is very calm and friendly, likes to be petted and really loves to be scratched on his head and neck. He is also playful and likes to have a yarn ball or chase a string. At night he sleeps on the floor near my bed or on the footstool in my bedroom. He stays alone quite well, no problems with chewing or scratching furniture. I have visited a friend who has children and other cats with Finnegan and he socialized well. He let the boys pet him and was submissive to the other cats, looking to play with them but not hissing or being aggressive in any way and coexisted very well with them. Finnegan will make a great family pet!"

He loves to do office work ... he's one who will lay on whatever you are trying to work on, so if you're a work-at-home person get ready for a little office helper!

Quentin (LB-C-8954)

NEW ARRIVAL !

6-30-09

6-30-09

Hi, my name is Quentin. I’m a super sweet charcoal gray boy, kind of like a russian blue, with plush short hair but a little extra fluffy. I live with my sister, Tori, in a foster home. Tori & I adore each other, sleep together, play & rumble like crazy. We’ll entertain each other & you with our kitten tactics many a time. We also like just about any toy or string our foster Mom tempts us with - and get excited when foster Mom eggs us on to play. We like to climb & explore like all kittens, but we’re pretty well behaved and respond to foster Mom’s voice to ‘get down’ or calm down for bed. We’re really not very demanding.

Tori & I are a little shy and still getting used to being around people. We’re warming up really quickly, but would be best in a home with older kids or adults who will approach us slowly for affection -- though we’re certainly not shy to play! We just need a little time to get used to you and a gentle touch.

I would love to be adopted with my sister, Tori, since she’s my best friend. But if not with Tori, it’s best I have another kitten to play with. I hope to meet you!

Quentin's adoption fee of $135 includes: Vet exam, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, deworming and neutering. He is Feline Leukemia and FIV negative.

Quentin's estimated date of birth is 4/24/09.

We like to call him our mini snow leopard because of his beautiful silver tabby look. He is a cat that will steal your heart and become your best friend. He has one eye that had an ulcerated cornea and he doesn't see too well out of that one, but it doesn't slow him down at all! Romeo also has a skin allergy that is controlled by special food available at local pet stores and occasional oral medication. Despite all the hardships he has overcome, he is still a cat with personality plus. This cat is the epitome of his name, Romeo, and filled with unconditional love for someone who is willing to care for a cat who needs a little extra care, attention, and love.

Ross (LO-C-8849)

Ross is a handsome male tabby; he's not too big and not too small. His coat is very interesting, almost like modern art with its asymmetrical twisting and turning of black and grey. At an estimated 2 years of age he still shows a great pleasure in Play! He loves being around people and enjoys playing with cats, but lets the dog know he needs to keep his distance. Ross will fit into any kind of family, and will make himself at home in anyone's lap. He will let you know when he wants attention, and loves sleeping in bed with you at night. If you're looking for a sweet guy with a charming personality, Ross is your guy!

Rusty (MM-C-8869)

2-21-09

2-21-09

Rusty is a striking orange tabby with gorgeous bengal-like markings. He is just about a year old, and still kind of a small guy at just 8 lbs. He's got a great personality, is very friendly and outgoing. He loves everyone, gets along with other cats, is still a little wary of the dogs in his foster home but is getting more comfortable each day.

His foster mom says: He is THE SWEETEST MOST UNBELIEVABLY AFFECTIONATE cat, goes looking for you, then just lays out in your way to get petted. I have to step OVER him, or push him out of the way just to get by him. He lays across your desk as you do papers and lets you carry him around. When you're petting him, he rubs his head into your hand for more. He's just wonderful - a real doll! He's just an overall nice little kitty that you can't help but fall in love with. So if someone is looking for a kitty that will be their constant companion, send them Rusty's way! He will fit into any type of household except perhaps one with young kids - he is "too curious for comfort" about what is on the other side of closed doors and tends to bolt through them once opened. But a home with children old enough to be careful not to let him out would be fine.

Rusty's adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, flea preventative, feline leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination & tag, deworming, microchip and neutering.

Sweet William (FB-C-8962)

NEW ARRIVAL !

7-1-09

7-1-09

I know I have kind of a silly name. I started out as a dignified "William" but the staff at the vet clinic and the volunteers here at Adopt-A-Pet saw what a sweet boy I was, and, well, the name just kind of stuck! So Sweet William I am!

I am a snowy white with a smudge of gray on my head, and a cute pink nose. I'm a young boy, likely about 2 or 3 years old, very active and playful, and I'm an ace cuddler. I have a super mellow demeanor and get along with everybody, including other cats and dogs. Everybody who meets me remarks on my wonderful outgoing personality. I have a cheery outlook on life, and really, nothing seems to bother me. If you ask me, I'm a real catch. Anyone who adopts me is guaranteed to find joy, love and a calming presence with me in your heart and home.

Speaking of hearts, I overheard the vet say that he heard a little heart murmur when he examined me, and an xray showed I had a somewhat enlarged heart. (I always knew I had a big heart because I'm such a loving fellow, but this isn't quite what I had in mind!) So, Adopt-A-Pet did ultrasounds and fancy cardiograms and blood tests trying to find out the cause, but alas, they came up empty handed. The doctor thinks it might be something I was just born with, and he said I could live with it for a long time, or, it might even one day go away on its own. He said I'm otherwise totally healthy and I don't have any symptoms at all.

So, here I sit, waiting for that one special big-hearted person to come and take me home, heart murmur and all. This shelter is full of cats. Full of kittens. Full of cats. ALL shelters are filled with cats. I'm just one of many. One of many. But maybe . . . just maybe . . . I'm the one for you.
You can meet me at my foster home, Thee Fish Bowl, 600 Dempster Street in Evanston, during store hours 7 days a week (847-475-6500). My discounted adoption fee is $75, and besides all the exams I talked about above, I've also had my feline leukemia test and FIV test which were both negative, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

5-9-09

Tommy (MJC-C-8908)

5-9-09

Tommy is a 8-9 week old little boy kitten ready for his forever home. He's a pretty apricot color. Though initially a little shy, he warms up once he's comfortable with you. He would do best in a quieter household. He is playful and used to other kitties and will make a great addition to a multi-cat home.

Tommy's adoption fee of $135 includes: Vet exam, flea preventative, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo vaccine), deworming and neutering.

3-14-09

3-14-09

Toulouse is a very handsome gray and white male, about 3 years old, with very soft fur. Though it took a couple of weeks for him to adjust to his foster home, now is doing wonderful. He likes to play with the other cats and has no problem with the dog. He follows his foster mom around just to get a little petting and at night likes to watch TV on the couch and be petted. He loves the sound of his name and always talks back. He will make a wonderful companion in a quieter household with or without other animals.

He is quite friendly with his foster buddy "Ross" so if you're looking for a ready-made pair, please consider this darling duo!

Toulouse's adoption fee of $115 also includes: vet exam, flea preventative, feline leukemia and FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

NEW ARRIVAL !

6-28-09

Travis is a very handsome dark tiger tabby kitten. He has lighter markings (whitish) on the inside of his fur which don't show in these photos. Unfortunately, not a lot shows in these photos at all because Travis just said "uh-uh, no way!" to waking up and opening his eyes for the photographer. Other than being a little camera shy, he is a typical kitten who likes to play with his other foster siblings. He's well socialized and affectionate with his humans, too, and also used to an older cat.

Travis' estimated date of birth is 5/1/09.

Wilson  (JDRF-C-8816)

11-07-08

Wilson is such a handsome orange tabby with the cutest pink nose. He is about 2 years old. He is an extremely loving and affectionate cat. His foster mom has decided that he would probably be happiest as an "only" pet and that is most likely the type of environment he came from. When the other pets in the foster home are not around, he will jump on your lap or rub up against you and wants lots of cuddling and attention. He will make a wonderful companion and lap cat.

Wilson's adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, flea preventative, feline leukemia test, FIV test, deworming, rabies vaccination and tag, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, and neutering.

He does not constantly whine for attention, but will make himself heard when necessary or when the sound of a can is being opened. :-)

Yo Yo Meow's adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, flea preventative, feline leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination and tag, deworming, microchip and neutering.
