Artemis - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Chicago, Illinois

Artemis is a beautiful, seven-pound, 18-month-old, sweet and very shy black female cat looking for a loving guardian.

Found on the campus of Misericordia in Chicago’s Rogers Park neighborhood, Artemis moved into the boiler room with her family of six kittens.

All the babies have found a home, now it’s Artemis’ turn!

She is a lovely cat who is great with other cats. She’s intimidated by big male cats, but loves gentle and sweet females. She is extremely shy with humans but lets you pet her and will warm up more in time. She’s looking for a patient cat-lover willing to give her the time to socialize.

Artemis’ favorite toys are balled up pieces of paper. She loves to play.

She is now very healthy, up to date on rabies and distemper vaccines, virus and fecal-tested negative, and has had full bloodwork done. She will be spayed at the end of the month.

She is perfect with her litter box and very well behaved in the home.

Her adoption fee of $175 includes a supply of all her favorite foods! Please fill out our adoption application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/cat-adoption-application/ and follow up by emailing friendsofpetraits@gmail.com to schedule an appointment to meet her.
