Meet Lolly, a spirited 2-year-old brown and white shorthaired cat with a playful personality and a love for being in the spotlight. Lolly adores playtime and revels in being the center of attention, showcasing her agility and charm with every pounce and leap. However, Lolly prefers to receive attention on her own terms, relishing affectionate pets and cuddles when she's in the mood. While she knows how to co-exist with other feline companions if necessary, Lolly would thrive best in a home where she can be the sole recipient of attention. Her vivacious nature means she requires a dynamic and engaging environment, free from the hustle and bustle of children. With her energetic spirit and affectionate disposition, Lolly is sure to bring joy and excitement to the lucky family that welcomes her into their hearts and home, providing her with the loving and devoted companionship she craves.
If you are interested in adopting or meeting her, fill out an application at apl-shelter.org (for adopting) or come visit in-person at the Animal Protective League, 1001 Taintor Road in Springfield. The APL is open every day from noon to 5 p.m.

More about this shelter
For over 60 years, the Animal Protective League has been the voice for animals in Springfield and Sangamon County. APL operates a limited admission animal shelter and a high-volume, low-cost spay/neuter clinic along with comprehensive animal-welfare programs. APL is a private, not-for-profit organization and operates primarily by donations.
APL's limited admission animal shelter prioritizes intake by sick, injured, abused and abandoned dogs and cats. APL strives to match animals with carefully screened, loving, permanent owners. All animals leave our shelter spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with all age appropriate vaccinations. Over 2000 deserving dogs and cats are placed in homes every year! APL also has an active group of foster families who provide interim homes until space is available at our shelter.
APL's Spay/neuter clinic performs over 12,000 spay/neuter surgeries every year. In addition to the public, we work with other animal shelters, animal control agencies and animal welfare groups within a 30-mile radius of Springfield. Our free transport system picks up animals from various locations and transports them to our facility for surgery and then returns the animals the following day. This allows many other organizations to have access to low-cost spay/neuter services for their own animals as well as animals in their communities. We currently work with 31 partners in 18 surrounding counties.
