My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Martha and her five siblings were surrendered to TAPS at five weeks old by their human as an accidental litter. Within a few days, they went to live in a foster home where they thrived and became big enough to find their own families. Which all but Martha now has, leaving this adorable little girl her the last of her litter and 7 months old. Her foster mom has this to say about her. `This little girl was shy around us at first but recovered quickly and was curious about what we were doing and why her siblings were having so much fun. Martha has a unique personality. Initially a bit shy, she quickly warms up and her bright eyes will captivate you. Once she feels secure, she loves to run and play. She would be overjoyed to be adopted alongside a cat friend.` She`s had a diverse upbringing, being around dogs, cats, and kids. She`s learned to respect their older furry and human companions, making her an excellent fit for any home. If you`re ready to open your heart and home to a new furry family member, we encourage you to complete our online application. www.tapsshelter.org. Take the first step towards welcoming Martha into your loving home.

More about this shelter

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.
