Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Ardu (~DOB 10.1.20) is a short-haired spayed black female. This sweet little girl had a tough start in life. She was very malnourished and underweight when she was found as a lone kitten who hung around several older cats in a colony found in Waukegan near a nursing home. Previously, she was extremely shy and timid and did a lot of hissing, but at the same time, she loved to be held and petted. Now, she is much more outgoing and getting braver every day. She loves to play with toys and the other cats in the house. She purrs often and is the best cuddler. She needs a special adopter who will be very patient with gaining Ardu’s trust through gentleness and kindness (and yummy food, too!). Though she does still shy away from quick movements from humans, she is an absolute lover of other felines. We think she would do better in a home with other cats so we've paired her with Symphony and they have become good friends. Pair adoption $200.
