Hi there, I'm Coach Purrrse! I am a 1-year-old dilute calico girl. I am very petite for a year old, so pretty much, I will always be kitten size! I came to TAPS from a hoarding situation with 14 family/friends! I am pretty nervous about being here...I won't lie, but every day it gets a little easier. I am in a smaller open cat room with my sister and some other cats, so that helps. I love head/ear scratches and am content to be held over my human friends' shoulder while sitting being petted and talked to. I am a quiet, observant girl. I enjoy a cat tree to climb or lay in but am not quite sure what the hype about toys is at this point anyway. I want to be loved very badly; I just have to be comfortable with you first! The more time you are willing to spend being my friend, the faster you will find out what a little sweetheart I am! I am a very gentle, friendly, loving girl when given the time! If you have the time and love to give, I could be the best friend you will ever have. Please fill out an online application and come meet me!!

TAPS-Tazewell Animal Protective Society was founded in 1958 in Pekin Illinois in a building donated by the City of Pekin on River Road. In 1979, rapidly rising river water forced the evacuation of the animals. Once again, the City of Pekin stepped in and donated a building for the animals. Several moves later, and with the help and generosity of many volunteers and community members, TAPS now has a new home at 100 TAPS Lane. Last year we celebrated 50 year of caring for the homeless animals of Central Illinois.
