Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Washington, Illinois

I adpoted Barnabas from PCAPS back in June so my resident cat would have a friend while I'm away. Barnabas is a sweet boy who loves cuddles and has a curious nature. He may be skittish the first moment you meet him, but he warms up to everybody VERY quickly. The issue is that he didn't get along with my resident cat. I took the time to try to slowly introduce them over a few weeks. Everything seemed fine until I let them inhabit the same space. Barnabas attacked my cat unprovoked on two occasions. I'm not sure if I introduced them too quickly or if I somehow spooked him when introducing them, but now I'm unable to try to get them to cohabitate because my resident cat is too afraid to even approach Barnabas through a baby gate. I think he would be best in a single-cat home, or in a house with multiple cats and an already established hierarchy.

Hi there, I`m Snowcone! I am a 5-year-old Domestic Longhair with a beautiful white coat, topped with a little black patch on my head. I am a very quiet boy who is shy upon 1st meeting. I am not big on being picked up, but I like pets and cuddles, just go slow with me as I am a little scared in my surroundings right now. I am a very sweet boy once you get to know me, and I`d love a chance to be the purrfect addition to your family! A home without barking dogs and small children might be best for me, at least at this point... As I relax, we may revisit that! If your heart is big enough to take a chance on me, please fill out an online application so we can meet and get to know each other.

All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records.

After we review your completed survey we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. We're primarily a volunteer organization, so we appreciate your patience. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sundays and Mondays and will not be processing any applications on that day. Do get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). Counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and leash to pick up. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720).
