Story
My wife and I acquired Jerry and Rou 7 years ago as kittens. They were farm cats. They are such sweet loving cats and have become like children to us. Both of them love snuggling on your lap and in bed at night. They never have destroyed any furniture or scratched or hissed at anyone. They are definitely shy at first but once they warm up they will love you. The only reason we need to rehome them is because our 13 mo. old daughter is allergic and they cannot be in the house anymore. I put in the questionnaire that they are not up to date on shots but they were taken to the vet to get shots after we got them. Since they are strictly indoor cats we have not kept up on all shots, but certainly could take them in prior to rehomeing if need be.

Story
Meet Milo (aka Grumpy Garage Cat). He was found in a garage and was taken to a vet and scanned for a microchip. One was found and traced back to an old owner in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They had given Milo away and did not know how he ended up in Illinois. They did not want him back. Milo is 10 yrs old, up to date on all shots, complete blood panel and disease panel done with excellent health and no diseases. He is incredibly friendly, an angel at the vet, and loves affection. He is currently in a home with 2 young cats, 1 dog, and a mother with 2 small children. After a couple months in the home, he started to have inappropriate urination. Medical issues were addressed and none found. Vet thinks he needs a less stressful environment to thrive. So, a quiet home is what we are looking for. He is so, so sweet. And we are looking for a furever home for Milo to live out his sunset years. Thank you for considering Milo as your feline companion.

Story
We adopted Kit in July 2 1/2 years ago as a kitten off craigslist. She is a sweet cat with adults only, she hates kids. I have tried everything with her hoping she would finally accept them... she doesn’t ,and she won’t ! The kids have never done anything to her she just doesn’t want to be bothered by them. She hisses and swipes at the grandkids any chance she gets. My littles are afraid of her And for that reason I have to find her a good home. She is sweet ( adults only) Litter trained Spayed loves kitty treats and dry food She sheds , but loves to be brushed. I feel incredibly guilty I have to re-home her, hopefully the right person comes along!! I would be So grateful!!
