Story
Meet Keanu – A Sweet, Independent Soul in Need of a New Home Keanu has been a part of our family since she was just 4 weeks old. She’s always been a cat who values her independence and prefers affection on her terms. While she has a sweet side, Keanu can be stand-offish, and she isn’t one to appreciate attention when she’s not in the mood. If she’s bothered, she may scratch or bite, making her best suited for a home without young children. With a 22-month-old and a newborn in the house, we’ve grown increasingly concerned about our toddler unintentionally disturbing her and getting scratched or swiped at. Keanu deserves a peaceful home where her boundaries are respected, and she can share her affection on her own schedule. If you’re looking for a companion who’s a little sassy and a lot independent, Keanu may be the perfect fit for you.

Story
We love our cats very much but unfortunately my wife and daughter have gotten allergic over time. We had them since they were kittens and they are 4 years old now. They are very much bonded and it is an absolute must that they stay together. Looking for a loving family home. We have a lot of kids and a baby and the cats are great with them. They are very gentle and friendly. The white and brown one is a bit shy of new people when he first sees them. This is a very heartbreaking decision for us but the allergies keep getting worse. My wife is having trouble breathing and my daughter is starting to get an asthmatic cough so we have no other choice. We would greatly appreciate if you sent us pictures of them and stayed connected to us. Requirements: 1) A loving family - they are used to our large family. 2) Absolutely no declawing. 3) The cats stay together.

Story
Hi, my name is Jasper. I am a neutered boy, around 10 years of age. I use to live with an elderly lady and many other cats, but she died and then I was taken to a barn where I was locked up (with food and water) for nearly 2 years. Then a kind foster lady took me into her beautiful bedroom where I await my forever home. I love to sit in the window, sleep on/or under the bed, get petted/attention and love getting fresh water and food. I love lickable cat treats!! Every time my foster Mom sits on the edge of the bed to get up, I jump up and sit on her lap for a few minutes....it's our special time. I have always lived with other cats, but I would prefer a quiet household, where no one will harass me or frighten me. Please email or text my foster mom directly if you are interested in adopting me! 815-501-3937 My foster moms think I am a sweet boy. I am fully up-to-day on my vaccines... Rabies and Distemper 3-in-1 shot. Therefore my adoption fee is: $50 Thank you for your consideration!

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!

Leon and Otis have been in our loving care since we adopted these brothers when they were 1 year old. They are both sweet cuddly kitties. Very good with children. We need to rehome because our third child appears to have allergies.
