Story
Disclaimer: This animal is not in Anderson custody. and is a courtesy post to help a member of the community rehome directly without shelter intervention. Any adoption inquiries should be directed to the owner at Ellie2979@yahoo.com or (630) 391-3963. Anderson Humane makes no guarantees regarding medical or behavioral status of this animal, and the current owner is solely responsible for disclosing any challenges or concerns. Luke is so friendly, and quirky. I found him at 2 years old as a stray. No telling what he got into before that but I was told he might've fallen off a cargo truck from Georgia. He wasn't fixed and had worms. He was warming up one day under my ex-boyfriend's truck and then he became mine. FF 3 years. Luke is a charming, large, and fully healthy 5 year old and 1 month male cat. When inside, his favorite thing to so is sprawl out while he and his human watch tv. He is the best co-pilot.!! He also likes to daydream by the window, listening for critters or birds. When outside, he likes sprawling out on the cool ground, walking in gardens, and picking at plants. He has gotten loose 2 or 3 times, where I found him within the same day in the neighbors gardens, and once he just walked back to the front door where his food and water were. I brush him routinely with Burts Bees waterless shampoo. He is a very sheddy orange cat. The vet says American shorthair but I don't know where the "short hair" classification comes from because I could go on brushing him and removing hair from him for days. He acts like he doesn't like to be brushed but he does. He loves being a pretty boy. As long as you keep him clean he shouldn't provoke any allergy problems. His favorite toys and cat beds are anything colorful that is truly unique, just like him. He like crunchy treats and that is usually how I care for his dental health. I have also used minty gel which he really enjoys. He likes Shiba catfood, and meow mix dry food. If you mix it together for him that's just the best. Praying Luke and I find a forever home give him the stimulation, safe environment, and needs to be met that he deserves. Currently, my household has adopted a pitbull who is untrained and uncrated. And Luke is left for long periods of time, often days, in the master bedroom, where the dog barks and pushes/knocks at the door. I'm also 5 months pregnant and just want to find the right home and situation for him before the baby comes and there is even less I can do.... Please consider adopting this cutie!! It would mean the world to me!

Story
Anika was the pet of a coworker of mine, who sadly had to give her up because his landlord does not allow cats. She is roughly 1.3 yrs old, and my colleague had her for about a year. We took her in roughly 1 month ago, and since then she has quickly warmed up to us. She was quite shy at first, but now she won’t leave me alone! She loves to meow, purr, cuddle, and be pet. Especially meowing, she enjoys making noise a lot. She is quite athletic and can get into trouble, so definitely be careful about what she’s up to. We have 2 cats already in the house, and they tolerate her. They haven’t had enough time to get to know her, so they often hiss at her. She is good natured and does not bite or scratch. The only time she has scratched me was the day she arrived. She cuddled with my brother that same night. I think she would make a great addition to homes with kids or with cats, due to her friendly nature. Some words I’d use to describe her are talkative, affectionate, and playful.

Story
Crumbles wears her heart on her side for all to see. She is such pretty girl! Curious and sweet, she is sure to win your heart. She does not like to be held for long but is making slow progress & working on that with her foster family. She loves her cat toy wands and mice but isn’t a fan of most treats. She loves to see what her foster family is up to, and her presence always lights up a room. She does ok with good dogs and ok with other nice cats. Crumbles will shy away from her siblings if they play too hard for her taste. She would do best with being paired well in a super sweet cat home to avoid her potentially being bullied. She would also do well in a single cat family. Home is where her heart is and Crumbles is waiting for her forever one! rh

Story
Greetings from Rudy! Rudy is the sweetest mixture of lazy sunshine napper and kitty zoomie monster. He’s joined the local neighborhood watch so that he can bring you back the news from your street. He becomes attached to his humans he lives with and is the perfect Robin to your Batman any day. Rudy would do well in any home who can give him all the attention he needs (i.e. cherish him for the beautiful soul he is). He’s a young child and needs to be adopted with one of his siblings (Johnny, Tony or Vinny) or into a home with another young cat. Rudy is a playful cat who loves to break up his play time with a nap on your lap. He’s the best snuggle buddy and you’ll never have to sleep alone once you invite him into your home. He’ll greet you when you wal in the door and be your closest companion. Rudy is looking for his forever cuddle buddy today! . WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A SCREENER.
