Meet me, Lil Nicole! I am a pretty buff and white 3-month-old kitten here learning what nice humans are! My siblings and I were confiscated and ended up at PAWS, so we have had a rough start, but are now loving life in one of the open cat rooms here where we run, jump, pounce on toys, climb cat trees, sit in windows and watch the birds, or on the bench with our human friends soaking up the pets. We are a good combination of sweet and social as well as playful and entertaining once we get comfy with you! If you think that one or two of us could be a good fit for your forever family, please fill out an online application now so we can meet and get to know each other!! Tomorrow isn`t soon enough for me!!

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.
