Pick a Pair!

Updated on 1/28/2012

 

 

 
If you're considering adopting a pair, please consider these especially-bonded pairs below, although this list is not meant to be exhaustive. Many of our other kitties shown on our BOYS or GIRLS pages are in homes with multiple fosters and can be paired up with one of their many playmates. So if you don't see what you're looking for on this page, be sure to give us a call and ask our adoption counselors about other "mix 'n match" pairs that we have.


Domino (PB-C-9267)

Pepper (PB-C-9266)

Domino is an absolute fireball! He is a very active kitten with a playful attitude, and views anything that moves as a potential playmate. His purrs can be heard across the room, and he purrs for a long time - he was once clocked purring for two hours non-stop! He gets along well with the dog in his foster home, as well as with the other cats there. He will cuddle for short periods of time, but doesn't like to be in any one place for too long. He LOVES the laser pointer and will spend as much time playing with it as YOU can stand! He loves to explore, so should only go to a home with children old enough to be responsible about keeping doors outside doors closed. All in all, he's a great kitty and will make a great pet for the active family. 

Domino's estimated date of birth is 6/30/11 and his adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip, and neuter.

Meet Pepper, a lovely male kitten who loves to cuddle, is quick to purr, and his purr is a quiet contented rumble. Though he looks kind of black in his photos, he's actually a unique charcoal gray-on-gray tabby. He's rather laid back for a kitten - will get active and play like all kittens do, but really just prefers a calm life. He loves water - especially if it's moving. His nickname is "Waterbug". He loves to drink from the faucet, and will even try to join you in the shower. Because of his love of water, a squirt bottle is NOT an effective deterrent for unwanted behavior. He's outsmarted his foster mom and now jumps on the counters intentionally so he'll get squirted! Pepper enjoys playing with the foster dog in the house, and has been known to curl up and cuddle with him. He will be an excellent pet for a calm child (if there is such a thing :) In his current foster home he's not so happy with very active children and when the kids get rambunctious, he disappears. but in general, he's a friendly little guy and will make someone a great pet. 

Pepper's estimated date of birth is 7/30/11 and his adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip, and neuter.

 

 

Lenny (JKH-C-9230)

Tiny (JKH-C-9232)

Peaches (JKH-C-9231)

Lenny is a beautiful plush gray like a Russian Blue. He always takes the lead and is the most outgoing. He's a typical, playful, high energy kitten and very friendly with both other cats and humans. He loves to be held and cuddled, and sleeping with his foster dad is his favorite activity. He must be adopted with one of his siblings or another kitty playmate. No solo kitty life for this sociable boy. 

Lenny's approximate date of birth is 8/6/11 and his adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neuter.

I'm a sweet little silver-gray kitten that looks like a Russian Blue. My foster mom named me Tiny because I was so small. I am growing fast, and now I am as big as my brother Lenny. I am very close to my brother Lenny and my sister Peaches. I like to hug and touch noses with my human family. Sleeping with my foster dad is my favorite activity. Because I enjoy feline companionship, I must be adopted with one of my siblings or another kitty playmate. 

Tiny's approximate date of birth is 8/6/11 and his adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, Feline Leukemia test, FIV test, FVRCP vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and neut

Raven (MS-C-9240)

Hi, I'm Coco, a little orange tabby boy. I am very inquisitive and I love to play. I know my forever home is out there and I hope I will be adopted soon. Maybe that family will consider adopting me with one of my brothers or sisters or another kitty. Then I will have someone to play with all the time!

My exact date of birth is 7/29/11. I was born in my foster home with my seven siblings. Mom was a stray that was saved by the Chicago Police Department.

My adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, deworming, microchip and neutering.

My name is Ginger Snap. I was out on the street trying to survive when some nice people from the Chicago Police Department found me and brought me to a wonderful home. I was expecting a litter of kittens and to my surprise I had eight! I love big families and being a mom has been a wonderful experience. My kitties are growing up and now it is time for them and me to find a forever home. I hope one of my kitties can come with me. They are all so cute. Just between you and me, I need to relax and gain some weight after feeding my eight little ones. Maybe you would consider being my best friend new home!

My estimated date of birth is 7/15/09. My adoption fee of $115 includes: vet exam, feline leukemia/FIV test, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, deworming, microchip and spaying.

Hello, I'm Raven. I am a female, black tortie (tortoiseshell). I love to play and am super friendly. I know my forever home is out there and I hope that family will consider adopting me with one of my siblings or another kitty.

Oberon (TMP-C-9234)

Orlando (TMP-C-9235)

Omar is a shorthaired orange tabby kitten with a special charm and loving nature. He has beautiful markings, long legs and long tail! He is extremely playful but he will follow you wherever you go! He loves to cuddle in your arms and craves lots of attention. He is curious, loves to play with his siblings - and will love you too!

Omar's estimated date of birth is 4-22-11 and his adoption fee of $135 includes: vet exam, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, feline leukemia/FIV test, deworming, microchip and neuter.

 

****************************************************************************

Oberon is a stunning, sleek, shorthaired black hair female kitten. She is small and will most likely remain petite so if you enjoy tiny kittens, she's the one for you! She is extremely sweet and gentle. She loves to play with her siblings but also likes to spend "alone time" by herself. Her nature is very quiet so she will probably do well as an only child with a single person or couple.

Oberon's estimated date of birth is 4-22-11 and her adoption fee of $125 includes: vet exam, FVRCP (distemper combo) vaccination, rabies vaccination, feline leukemia/FIV test, deworming, microchip and spay.

Widget (WP-D-4239) & Tinker (WP-D-4240)

Widget

Tinker

Hi! I’m Widget, a 3/1 2 pound male Chihuahua, about 4-5 years old. I was rescued from a puppy mill and Adopt-A-Pet is helping me to find my forever home and a family to call my own. My life up until now hadn't been very pleasant. It's been quite a ride with my friend Tinker these last few weeks and I am still trying to figure out this brave new world.

Now even though I am an extra-tiny little guy and very shy, I have made real progress since I have settled into the Wilmette Pet Center. The store acts as a foster home for Adopt-A-Pet and takes care of us until our forever family comes to take us home. Every day I get braver and more confident, and have grown to enjoy seeing people and all the other critters come and go. I've come to enjoy playing with some of the other little dogs here in our puppy playpen. Yes, I am still cautious but I am always happy to curl up in the arms of a kind human - I feel very calm and content there and have even been known to take a little snooze. I am a handsome tri-color boy, calm, quiet (really, I rarely bark), sweet and gentle.

My friend Tinker and I have traveled this road together and have become best friends. She is my security blanket and me hers. There is no way that we can curl into each other and be any closer. We are very bonded and want to be adopted together. We are looking for a home with a calm atmosphere, so no little kids, please. We will need a little extra TLC and time to acclimate, but trust me, it will be worth the wait! Please take us into your heart and home. We’ll make you quite happy that you did.

You can meet us at our foster home: Wilmette Pet Center, 625 Green Bay Road, during store hours 7 days a week (phone 847-251-6750, www.wilmettepetcenter.com). While you may want to take us home with you, please keep in mind that you must go through the application process before that can happen.

Our combined adoption fee of $425 includes: vet exam, heartworm test, DAPP (distemper combo) vaccination, bordetella vaccination, rabies vaccination, microchip, deworming, dental cleaning, and spay/neuter.

 

****************************************************************************

Hi! I’m Tinker, a 6 pound female Chihuahua, about 3-4 years old. I was rescued from a puppy mill and brought to Adopt-A-Pet to find a permanent home and a family to love me. I haven't had a very good life up until now. It has been quite a ride with my friend Widget these last few weeks and I am still trying to figure out this brave new world.

Let me tell you a little about myself besides that I am small, quite pretty in my tri-color array and still a bit scared. My nature is a sweet one. I am gentle, quiet (really I rarely bark) and overall quite calm. Gratefully I like humans who hold me with soft kindness. Yes, I am a bit of a cuddler. I have a direct soft gaze that allows eye contact. Partly this is to assess what is going on around me, for I have a high degree of quiet curiosity. I'm getting more social and more relaxed with each day. But because I'm still acclimating to this big new world, I need a home without lots of noise or commotion. No small children, please.

My buddy Widget and I have traveled this road together and have become best friends. He is my security blanket and me his. There is no way that we can curl into each other and be any closer. We are very bonded and want to be adopted together. So if you're a family looking for a double dose of cuteness and loving, please consider bringing us both into your life. Take us into your heart and home. Give us a lot of attention, a lot of love, a little time and a little patience, and we'll make you quite happy that you did.

You can meet us at: Wilmette Pet Center, 625 Green Bay Road, during store hours 7 days a week (phone 847-251-6750, www.wilmettepetcenter.com)

Our combined adoption fee of $425 includes: vet exam, heartworm test, DAPP (distemper combo) vaccination, bordetella vaccination, rabies vaccination, microchip, deworming, dental cleaning, and spay/neuter.
