Calico kittens & cats in Waterford, Wisconsin

-

Callie is an absolutely gorgeous calico cat. Like many calico cats, she has personality. She is incredibly affectionate, although a little bit on the quieter side when you first meet her.  Once she comes out of her shell, she's an absolute love. She will jump on your lap to get attention, and she has the softest and sweetest jump you have ever seen in a cat. She will also roll over. It isn't quite on command, but it does look like she's doing a trick.   Callie isn't quite sure what to make of the shelter, but she is learning to adjust. She would rather come to you than have you pick her up, although she tolerates it. She's just going to meow and let you know that it's not her favorite mode of transportation.   We think she may have some Persian in her as she has a slightly smushed in face. This means that she will want to have her eyes cleaned in addition to being brushed. The good news is that she is a very good sport about both of them.   This gorgeous cat is a typical calico and that she does not love other cats. She is wary of dogs, barking and other noises, so we suggest that she go into a home by herself without any other dogs or cats.   Callie is up to date with routine shots, litter box trained, altered and micro chipped. You can visit her in Petsmart at 2590 Sutton Road, Hoffman Estates or call 630-207-1238

Fun Bio: These babes will be ready for adoption when they are 8-10 weeks old. So we have some time, but follow their story! Get an application in, and be patient OR apply for one of our already kittens or cats! If interested in a pet from us please fill out the adoption application that is located on our website.  We process applications in the order in which they are received.  We will likely not respond to interest emails regarding puppies and/or kittens, we get so many "interest" emails that we simply do not have the time to respond to each one.  We always recommend playtime, positive reinforcement training and a regular schedule for feeding times when bringing a new cat/kitten into your home. Adjustment takes time for both you and your new family member, so remember to be patient and enjoy this new and exciting time!Included in the adoption fee are age appropriate vaccinations, FeLV/FIV testing, deworming, spay or neuter surgery, and microchip. Anti-Declawing Policy:All cats and kittens will have a no declaw policy in their adoption contract with us!  Declawing is a series of bone amputations.  Declawing is more accurately described by the term de-knuckling and is not merely the removal of the claws, as the term “declawing” implies.  In humans, fingernails grow from the skin, but in animals that hunt prey, the claws grow from the bone; therefore, the last bone is amputates so the claw cannot re-grow.  Declawing is one of the most painful, routinely performed procedures in all of veterinary medicine.  Each toe of the cat is amputated at the first joint.  Declawing a cat is equivalent in a person to amputating the entire first knuckle of every finger.  Declawing is done strictly for the benefit of the owner.  There are NO benefits to the cat and NO good reasons to declaw. Declawing can lead to behavior changes.  A declawed cat has no way to defend itself and may resort to biting more often.  Due to pain, they may stop using the litterbox.  There are humane alternatives to declawing.  Cats can be trained to use scratching posts.  They should have their nails trimmed regularly.  There is double sided sticky tape that can be put on furniture to deter a cat from scratching there.  There are also nail caps called Soft Paws that are glued onto a cat's nail without harm. ##2302925##

Born: April 11, 2024 Adoption Donation: $200 Meet Friday – A Gentle Soul Looking for Love Friday is a beautiful calico cutie with a quiet, gentle nature. Coming from a hoarding situation, she’s still learning to trust people, but one thing is for sure—she absolutely loves other cats! Having feline friends gives her confidence, and she would thrive in a home with a social, friendly kitty to show her the ropes. Though she’s very shy, Friday has a sweet heart and just needs a patient adopter who will give her the time and space to feel safe. If you have a calm home and a kind heart (and maybe a kitty friend waiting), Friday might be the perfect addition to your family. Are you the one to give this shy girl the love and security she deserves? All cats are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, and FeLV/FIV tested at the time of adoption.
