She is big on her routine, and after breakfast she loves to play with her feather wand toy. While she still can be easily startled and wary when you walk around her, with lots of love and patience she will be your best friend till the end!

Story
Requirement: No other cats in the homeHi everyone! I’m Pavlova. I was at WSHS for a while until my foster mom took me out of the shelter for a break. I was pretty hard to read at the shelter, but turns out I just needed a warm home to come out of my shell. At my foster home, I am a pretty typical cat. I like to nap, play with toys, and I love chin scratches. I’m pretty independent, but I like to quietly meow and rub my head on my foster mom when I want love and affection. I’ve even been able to co-exist with the 65lb resident dog, but I`ve never been a fan of other cats. Loud noises and sudden movements can startle me a little bit, but if you have a calm home for me to spend my days with you, apply to meet me today!

Story
Momo is a front declawed cat who likely has some pain in his feet, especially when using the litter box, and he'll need both behavioral support and pain management in his future life. His last family loved him dearly and worked with his issues the best they could, but severe family allergies to cats ended up being the heartbreaking reason they needed to part ways after several years. He prefers empty litter boxes or soft surfaces inside the litter boxes, and will need help to relearn that going in a litter box isn't painful. We will support his foster (or foster to adopt) with behavioral and medical needs for his entire life in the aim of ensuring that Momo has a forever home.

Story
Hi, I`m R&B! I am a petite gal with a BIG personality and a crazy story. A few months ago, I secretly hitched a ride on a Room and Board truck in Minneapolis. When I arrived in Chicago, the driver was very surprised to see me! I was malnourished, so she brought me to WSHS in the hopes that they would be able to care for me. They were happy to take me on, but I had a surprise in store- I was pregnant! I was promptly sent to foster care and gave birth to four kittens. Now my babies are growing up, so I am finally looking for a forever home! I`m tired of leading such an exciting life and am looking for a home where I can settle down. I may be small, but I am an opinionated, independent lady with a lot of personality. I do not enjoy the company of other cats, possibly because of things that happened to me on the streets of Minneapolis, but I am a sweet girl with humans who gain my trust. I am young, playful, talkative, intelligent, and very curious! I`d prefer a home without small children because I like to have my space when I need it, but I would thrive in a home with adults or older children who will respect my boundaries. I want nothing more than a quiet life where I can relax next to my special person. If you want to give my dramatic story a happy ending, apply to meet me today!

Story
Hi, my name is Pearl and I’m looking for my forever home! I love being around people and snuggling on the couch with my human. I’m a little shy with new people but warm up after a few meetings. I like playing and running with other cats and don’t mind sharing my toys. I was brought in from outside and have been lucky enough to live in a foster home. My foster mom has cats and a dog at home. I do well with the cats, but do NOT get along with the dog, so whoever brings me home will have to be a dog free home. If you`re looking for a sweet girl who will brighten up your home, then look no further! Apply to meet me and take me home today!

Story
I took cat from my daughter, as she was moving with her son out of a rental condo. She needed to get out of the unit was sold and her ex boyfriend was looking for her. In order to allow her to get out and into a safer place, I took the cat and have now held it for two years. My daughter still can not find a place that will allow pets. I am now retired and would really like to move on with my life. I hope someone could give him a good home with others, maybe a mellow cat and/or good people.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
I'm a big, solid boy who is very chill and loving. I'm not very playful and prefer to just hang out and binge-watch shows with you. I'll even let you hold the remote, as long as you're brushing me with the other hand. That is one of my favorite things. I'm a little shy at first but will soon warm up, especially if coaxed with a Churu treat. Please provide plenty of nose bops and kisses, neck and chin rubs - and don't forget to rub my ear pits - that's a spot I can't get to very well on my own. When our shows are over, I'll spend a little time looking out the window from my cat tower, then off to bed to do it again! Please grant me my dream life with you.

I am a sweetie who is so affectionate that we will likely bond immediately! I like to indulge in catnip and might play a bit when enticed but I'm almost all about the love. Pick me up! Hold me! Brush me! As long as I'm with you, I'm a happy girl. I will sit on your lap for as long as you let me and when I'm really relaxed, I'll tuck my head into the crook of your arm. Hope you don't have many plans for the day! I love the belly rubs and getting my neck and chin rubbed. You will not find a more loving girl - come see!
