Meet three-year-old soft and very sweet Cheeto. Cheeto arrived at TAPS with four tiny kittens. This little family of five went immediately to a foster home, where they were nurtured and loved until they were ready for their forever homes. The following is what Cheeto`s foster has to say about her.
She is super laid-back and gentle. Cheeto enjoys pets, is good with other cats. She played with her kittens which have now all been adopted, and now treats any other smaller foster that comes as one of her own. She will play with them if they want to play or snuggle with them if they want to snuggle. She will play with me when I have laser toys or dangly feathers! She will lay by my side and make biscuits as I pet her and make more biscuits with her little feet while she purrs gently...so precious!! She is one of the nicest and easiest cats I`ve ever had. The only thing we have discovered is that she would probably do best in a quieter home without small children as she hides from loud noise and big commotion.
It speaks volumes that Cheeto is one of the gentlest, friendliest, cats this foster has ever had. Sheri has helped hundreds of littles, and their mamas have great starts in life.

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.
