Cat Guardians

Cat Guardians A Loving and Humane Cat Shelter Cat Guardians is a no-kill, cageless shelter for cats in Lombard, IL.

For over 20 years, we have matched abandoned and stray street cats with loving families, and provided a permanent home for cats that have not been adopted due to age, medical conditions or socialization issues. We're funded entirely by your generous donations and staffed entirely by dedicated volunteers.

💝😽Hello there! My name is Bozena (or Bożena), which means “divine” and that is just what I am! The most divine kitty that you will every meet! I had to live rough for the first year of my life, and I’m still learning to trust people, but as you can see from my picture, I adored my foster mom and was really starting to come out of my shell before she got sick and I had to move to the shelter. While all the people here are very loving and kind, it’s a pretty busy place with different people every day, so its taking me a while to build up my confidence and my trust once again.

I know that once I have a family of my own, where things are a bit quieter and I can see the same people every day, I will once again be a confident and trusting companion, ready walk through the ups and downs of life with you. Are you looking for a quiet and steady kitty to add joy and levity to your home? Are you willing to be patient with me and give me the time and space I need to get comfortable in your home and learn to trust you? Well, if you are, I may be just the lady for you! Please fill out an application. It doesn’t mean that you are committing to anything … but it will start a conversation with our wonderful adoption team to see if we might be divinely destined to spend our lives together! 🐾💕
