My story

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

Carrito is a super loving and playful boy with a classic orange cat personality: curious, confident, and goofy.

He loves to snuggle, sit on laps, and be held—and will eagerly do so with everyone he meets, because he knows that new people will soon be his best friend.

As soon as you wake up he will dutifully take his place on top of you, purring and nuzzling to let you know how happy he is that you’re awake!

Carrito needs a good amount of playtime, but will also occupy himself chasing anything that rolls (he really likes tennis or ping pong balls), or just looking out the window. He even enjoys cat enrichment YouTube videos.

He sometimes acts his young age, exploring places he shouldn’t, knocking things over just to see what happens, and unrolling the toilet paper.

During the day, he likes to meow if he needs something, or just wants love or exercise, but isn’t vocal at night.

He would likely do best with an owner who can give him a lot of attention.

He might do well with another playful and friendly cat.

If you’re looking for a cat with a big heart (and a big nose), who will definitely bring light to your life, Carrito could be the perfect fit!

More about this rescue

Hyde Park Cats is a local, all volunteer group dedicated to helping stray and homeless cats in and around Chicago's Hyde Park. We received our 501©(3) status in 2014 and we were founded in 2008. See all our adoptable kitties on our webpage: http://hydeparkcats.org/adopt/

All of our cats are in loving foster homes, which means the cat or cats you adopt will be familiar with the sounds, smells and movements of life in a home and accustomed to living with humans. Our adoptable have been interacting on a daily basis with people who know this particular cat intimately, and the foster mom or dad can tell you all about the cat's individual personality, habits, preferences. You can't judge a cat by its cover! And while we can't predict the future or know everything about a cat, we can help you choose the cat who is right for you.

We have an adoption application and an adoption fee. This fee goes towards covering their vet costs. All cats adopted out by us are neutered/spayed, micro-chipped, tested for FIV/FeLV, and treated for fleas and worms.
