Hi there, I'm Ross! An adorable 3-month-old tuxedo boy who came to the shelter with my sibling from a nearby animal control. We were just itty bitty so we went straight to live with an awesome foster family until we were ready for adoption!! Well, that time has come and some of my siblings have already been adopted, leaving just Rachel and me. My foster mom has this to say about me "Ross is a very sweet cuddly guy looking for a lap to sleep on! He has the cutest little black ring on his tail!" We are playful, kid, and cat friendly!! If you think that one or both of us could be a good fit for your forever family, please don't hesitate to fill out that online application so we can meet in person and see where it goes!!

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.
