Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Black Cat Fact! Did you know: If your black cat has a tabby stripe gene and loves to spend his days lounging in the sun, his fur can turn a rusty brown color. Why? The sun’s rays break down the pigment in their fur to reveal the underlying tabby stripes.
Black Cats are so interesting, right!? Our Hot Rod is a lover and a lap cat, he loves to be by people. Loves to cuddle and have one paw on you at all times (awww). Hot rod is a chatty guy, he will meow to say hi and purr to thank you!
One of his cutest quirks is his love for buttons, so you'll probably have to rearrange your wardrobe so you're wearing a few buttons everyday! Hot Rod is a chill guy, he could be good with other cats, but we are not sure. Hot Rod is between 10-12 years of age, he would do best in a calm home where he can relax and lounge.
We absolutely do not condone declawing a cat (as it is very painful and unnecessary for them), but Hot Rod did make his way to us as a front declawed cat.
If you would like to meet and possibly our stud Hot Rod, contact Cindy: (773)203-0215, or email: cindy@chicagocatrescue.org
At Chicago Cat Rescue, we are dedicated to both the physical and emotional well being of the cats and kittens in our care. For this reason, unless expressly stated, we do not place cats or kittens in homes where they will be the only cat. Generally cats love the company of other cats, and can become quite lonely when living alone.
Kittens will only be placed in pairs, or to join another kitten or young cat in your home.
CCR adopts to homes in Chicago, or to homes that are within a few miles of our foster families. We do not ship cats or kittens. No exceptions.
Chicago Cat Rescue is an entirely foster based organization. Our ability to help more cats in need is dependent on our availability of foster homes. If you think you could provide a loving foster situation for a cat in need, or would like to learn more about our foster program, please email us, info@chicagocatrescue.org. Thank you!
