Story
Hi! Someone gave me this black cat since they were moving away but now I can no longer take care of him for landlord reasonings and I have a busy schedule. I don’t know his name but I decide to name him Oreo. He’s about 7 months old. I only had him for about 2 weeks now but he’s such a cuddle bug. He loves to sleep(he sleeps in such silly ways) and play. He will start purring as soon as you touch him. He’s so sweet and silly. He’s shy at first but once he warms up he’ll be exploring everything.

Story
Tootles, is very loving and purr when pet with his tail up. Tootles is very calm and can play and hang out by himself or loves to play and cuddle with people. He is a curious kitten who wants to know what you’re doing and be a part of it. He loves to chase and catch the elusive fly in the house. Tootles particularly loves cat tv. Tootles loves the lazer pointer when he isn’t gazing out the window at squirrels and birds. Tootles loves to play with random objects and sometimes carries them around in his mouth around the house. We plan to place Tootles with his brother, Sweetums in a forever home as they have bonded and we would hate to separate them. If you would like to meet and possibly adopt this amazing feline, please email info@chicagocatrescue.org or call 773/203-0215. No texts, please. CCR adopts to forever homes in Chicago or the very near suburbs that are within 10 miles of our Chicago foster families. We love our cats and we pledge support for the rest of their lives, which is why our location limits are in place. We appreciate your understanding. If you are outside of these limits, please check petfinder.com, which allows searching by zip code, for cats closer to your home. At Chicago Cat Rescue, we are dedicated to both the physical and emotional well-being of the cats and kittens in our care. For this reason, unless expressly stated, we do not place cats or kittens in homes where they will be the only cat. Generally, cats love the company of other cats, and can become quite lonely when living alone. Kittens will only be placed in pairs, or to join another kitten or young cat in your home. Chicago Cat Rescue is an entirely foster-based organization. Our ability to help more cats in need is dependent on our availability of foster homes. If you think you could provide a loving foster situation for a cat in need, or would like to learn more about our foster program, please email us, info@chicagocatrescue.org. Thank you!

Story
Sophie is a goofball and a cuddle-bug. She really enjoys playing with toys, sometimes for hours on end and will always make you laugh with the crazy tricks she ends up pulling off. We met Sophie as a stray kitten, only a few days old in a box in the backseat of a junkyard car. She was raised around her siblings until she was 8 weeks old, then she came to live with my wife, daughter and I. We have recently moved into our family's home that is also a home to two dogs that unfortunately do not understand why a new furry friend appeared on their territory. We're looking for a new, comfortable home for this sweet kitty, and look forward to talking to anyone who is interested. Sophie deserves a home that she can run around in and play.

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.

Story
We rescued Dolly Purrton from Chicago Animal Control a few months ago. She's a 1-year old brown tabby who is naturally petite (8 lbs) and is adorable. She was with another cat at the shelter that had been adopted by another family already. When we got her, she was in very bad shape. She had eye, ear, and respiratory infections, and we thought she wasn't going to make it for a while, but we nursed her back to full health. She is incredibly sweet with us and our kids. She likes to play for long periods of time with wands and balls, but also loves to snuggle on laps, and will sleep on you or next to you in bed. She loves wet food and meat tubes, but does not seem to like crunchy treats. Unfortunately, she and our current cats do not get along. Although she was with other cats previously, she has shown aggression towards our two. We think she is a great cat, and we are very glad we rescued her, but she does not seem like a good fit for our family. She would be a fantastic fit with a fam
