Story
Padme is an absolute gem! She loves to be petted and hang out with her people. This sweet, young girl loves her cat tree, watching birds and squirrels out the window, and playing - especially with her kitty hamster wheel and tunnel, but she will play with pretty much any toys. She LOVES to play! And did we mention she likes boxes?! Padme is sooooo smart, easily learns routine, and knows her name. She'll even come when you call her or greet you at the door when you get home! Padme is good with other kitties, but much prefers the company of humans. She would be a great solo kitty and would be best in a house with kids 10 and up. Padme is the sweetest girl and we know you'll love her!

Story
Meet Sam the Brave! Greetings, fellow hobbits and adventurers! I am Sam the Brave, a fun-loving feline with the heart of a true hero from the Shire! With boundless energy, I race through my foster home with my two brothers, engaging in epic quests of playtime and mischief. My favorite treasure? A little hedgehog toy that I carry proudly as I explore Middle-earth (or at least my living room)! I'm the bravest of my fellowship, always curious about what lies beyond the Shire (or just around the corner). Beware, for I am a devoted companion! I'll follow you wherever you roam! I adore attention and am known to take my rightful place on your shoulder or climb your leg to ensure I'm not overlooked. I'd thrive in a home filled with love, preferably with another noble cat by my side. And if you're feeling adventurous, consider adopting me and my two brothers-we have an endless supply of love to share! Join me on this grand journey of companionship and fun! Will you be my Gandalf and lead me to my forever home? #AdoptSam #CatsofMiddleEarth #FelineFellowship #LoveInEveryPaw #HobbitCats #FurryAdventurer #Caturday #CatsOfInstagram #AdoptDontShop #RescueCat #CatBrothers #ForeverHome #CatAdoption #CuriousKitty #PlayfulPaws #FMNR #ForgetMeNotRescue #ForgetMeNotRescueIllinois

Adopt Pippin, the Brave Adventurer of Middle-earth! Greetings, noble friends! I am Pippin, a fun-loving feline with the heart of a hobbit and the spirit of a true companion! With boundless energy, I frolic and scamper with my two brothers in our cozy Shire-like foster home. Curiosity is my middle name-I love to explore every nook and cranny, and you'll often find me following you on your quests. My favorite pastime? Engaging in epic battles with my sparkle ball in a heroic game of fetch! And when it comes to attention, I'll make sure you notice me-even if it means climbing your leg like a brave climber scaling Mount Doom! I thrive in the company of other cats, so if your heart is as big as mine, consider adopting me. And maybe one (or both!) of my brothers.

Greetings, brave souls! I am Frodo, the smallest of the Fellowship! Like my namesake, I'm a fun-loving adventurer, full of energy and ready to explore Middle-earth (or your living room)! I love to race with my two brothers through our cozy Shire, seeking new quests and treasures. As the most curious of the trio, I will follow you like a loyal companion! I adore attention and can often be found perched on your shoulder like a true Hobbit of the Shire. If I'm not near, you'll hear my call-or I might scale your leg to remind you of my presence! I'd thrive best in a home with another feline ally, and if you're feeling noble, why not adopt me along with my brothers? Together, we'll spread love and joy throughout the realm! Will you answer the call of the Shire and bring our fellowship home? #AdoptFrodo #FellowshipOfTheCats #CatsofMiddleEarth #AdoptDontShop #FelineFellowship #HobbitHeart #CatAdoption #MiddleEarthKitties #CuddleQuest #LoveInEveryPaw #FMNR #ForgetMeNotRescue #ForgetMeNotRescueIllinois

Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
My name is Clara Bow, like the actress from the 1920s but my foster mom is a swiftie so I was named after the Taylor Swift song. I am a diluted tortie and I’m about 4 months old. I have a grade 4 heart murmur that brought me to Wish Upon A Rescue. My doctor is optimistic that I will live a pretty normal life, but I will need to be closely monitored and taken to doctor appointments to check on it regularly. I am currently cleared to play and live as I please! I LOVE my foster kitty siblings, we play all day! I get called a “ham” which is what I thought you eat??? By the way! I’m a huge foodie, whatever the human is eating sign me up! I am a through and through lover girl. I love attention and will tell you when I need love, pets or cuddles. I even “give kisses” on command! Please let me fool you into my super cute gaze so you will bring me home… I promise I’m really fun

Story
Momma clove came to wish with her 5 kittens after being found delivering her babies in the middle of a storm. Now that her baby spices are all grown up it's time for her to be a kitten herself and find her forever family. Clove is around 1 years old, she loves neck scratches, wand toys, and churu treats! Clove would probably do best in a family without small children, due to her still being scared of loud noises and fast movements at times. She can be shy at first but warms up really easily. We know that with the right family, some patience, and TLC she will be the sweetest addition to someone's family.

Checkers is a little sweetheart who suffers from a little anxiety. We explored many things until we found what she needed. She flourished with some consistency, love, patience, and her meds. She is slow to warm up to their cats but with proper introduction and time she will quickly become a best friend. She loves to play with her foster siblings. Ita amazing what a good family, shelter, love and kindness will do for a anxious kitten. This girl is ready to find her forever home to flourish in. You would be so fortunate to have checkers in your life.
