My story

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

Introducing Achilles, a lovebug of a kitten whose heart is as mighty as his namesake! This little sweetheart is looking for a loving home where he can shower you with endless affection and cuddles.

Achilles is a natural-born snuggler who absolutely adores being held! Having been bottle-fed from an early age, he's developed an extraordinary bond with humans and craves constant companionship. Whether he's nuzzling into your neck, purring in your lap, or following you around like a tiny shadow, his loving nature shines through in everything he does.

When he's not melting hearts with his cuddles, this little hero enjoys playful antics! You'll find him chasing toys, exploring his kingdom with boundless curiosity, or performing acrobatic feats – always making sure to return to your arms for frequent hugs and snuggles.

Mealtime is another opportunity for bonding, as this affectionate boy eagerly enjoys his treats and meals with adorable enthusiasm – especially when hand-fed by his favorite humans! While Achilles may take a moment to warm up initially, he quickly transforms into the most loving and devoted companion you could ask for. His gentle soul and need for physical affection make him the perfect pet for someone seeking a close, cuddly feline friendship.

Achilles was born with part of his rear left leg missing, but he doesn't let that bother him at all. He gets around great and is a playful happy kitten. 

Achilles comes as part of a dynamic duo with his brother Orpheus. These two share a special bond that's essential for their happiness and development. By adopting them together, you're ensuring each kitten has the support and companionship they need to thrive in their new home.

Are you ready to welcome this playful hero into your life? Adopt Achilles (and his brother Orpheus) today, and let the adventures begin!

More about this rescue

Rescue, Retrain, Redeem, and Re-home. 
Redemption Road Rescue Rehab Inc (aka R4) is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit organization based in Lake County, Illinois. R4 functions as an all-breed and ages, dog and cat rescue that specializes in behavioral training and rehabilitation. We are a professionally operated nonprofit dog and cat rescue run by certified dog trainers. We believe the solution to “difficult” animals cannot just be euthanasia. Our mission is to place dogs and cats that have undergone our rehabilitation program with responsible, reliable, and devoted owners. Our training specialty is centered in dog behaviors and understanding the canine mind. We take in all breeds, all ages and work with domesticated felines and feral cat colonies as well. Our expectations of adopters: 1- Consider the animal as an individual with their own personality and behaviors. 2- Be willing to learn, ask questions, and implement training into their daily routine. 3- Work alongside our team to prepare their home to provide the best environment for their new family member. R4 is 100% volunteer-run and foster-based and relies on donations, fundraisers, grants, and sponsorships to allow our organization to fulfill our mission to animals in need.
