~Home for the Holidays~
Meet Piper - Available for Adoption
Female | 4 1/2 yrs | 5.5lbs
This sweet little girl is a little shy at first, but once she gets comfortable, she likes to play with wand toys. She's gentle and loves to be pet and loved on... in other words she enjoys attention! She'd prefer a quiet, chill environment where she can feel relaxed and at ease. Older children are ok. Piper will find her person and stick to them as her favorite, then warm up to new people slowly.
This beautiful girl would be a wonderful addition in your home. For adoption info: https://tinyurl.com/msu2eskr

~Home for the Holidays~
Meet Minnah - Available for adoption
Female | 1.5 years | 7.5 lbs
Minnah is spunky, sassy, silly and sweet! She LOVES to play and explore. She doesn't mind other cats but will need time to acclimate properly to any new friends and would do best with an easygoing cat who likes to play. She can also be sassy with handling, so she’d prefer the company of older human children and adults, too. She's ready to find her forever home just in time for the holidays! To fill out an adoption application for Minnah, go to: https://bit.ly/MinnahCAR

Momo says THANK YOU to everyone who has donated so far to his care! He's got a fantastic catio bachelor pad in his foster home with a 'fenced in yard' when he's hanging with volunteers, awesome litter, delicious food, toys, and all kinds of supplies to keep him happy and on his journey to feeling his best. We - and Momo - are so grateful for all of your support, whether it be sharing, donating, or just talking about rescues all over need help more than ever.

Thank you specifically to Donna, Autumn, Melissa, Coreen, and anyone we've missed by accident! (We are fortunate to see who donates via our Amazon wishlist, but not our Chewy wishlist.)

Want to continue to support Momo, or other cats in our rescue who need a little boost? Momo's wishlist is here - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3KNANTHSPIYXP?ref_=wl_share and our general Chewy wishlist is here - https://prf.hn/click/camref:1101ldedC/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.chewy.com%2Fg%2Fchicagoland-animal-rescue-nfp_b65464226)

MEET BONDED KITTENS LILLY & ROMEO!
Lilly - Female | 7lbs | 8 months | Black/White DSH
Romeo - Male | 10lbs | 8 months | Black DSH
Available now for adoption!
Get ready for these ridiculously sweet, rambunctious teenagers! These bonded sibling kittens are looking for their forever home! They adapt to new situations and would most likely be ok in a home with older children. Romeo is going to be a big dude, they're just about 8 months old and he's 10 lbs now! Lilly is smaller and definitely smarter but Ro is no dummy either. They both love to lay on you, sleep and play together, and Romeo will even nurse the blanket or your shirt when he's super snuggly. They love toys and a good window view, and would benefit from a nice tall cat tree so they spend less time finding all the high spots in your home. Lilly loves to play in the water fountain (they spill bowls of water!) so be ready to have it in a spot that's easily cleaned up or to get a heavy one that's less spillable.
Interested in adopting both? Please go to: https://bit.ly/LillyRomeoCAR

MEET SILLY - AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION!
Male | 7 months | 10 lbs
As sweet as his name, Silly is the whole teenage kitten package. He is playful, social, adventurous, and sweet. Silly previously had a cat friend and will need one in his future home so that he can be the best companion to felines and people alike. He is a big dude already, so his future companion should be ready to run and tumble with a big kitty!
