Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Chicago, Illinois

Greyson is a hunk of a golden-eyed, 15-pound, four-year-old, male grey cat looking for a loving guardian.

This handsome fellow showed up as an intact emaciated stray. He was covered in bleeding sores and his right eye was oozing puss. He was taken in, neutered, and had eye surgery.

It took some time, but he has learned to LOVE domestic life as a spoiled house cat.

Greyson charms with a dainty little meow. While independent, he loves a warm lap. He’s gotten accustomed to nail trims, and teeth brushing.

While he’s not allowed to roam outdoors anymore, his foster mom takes him out on leash in a harness for walks in the yard or to soak up the sun. He is well-behaved in the home; great with his litter box and cat scratcher.
This silly guy has one or two bursts a day of goofy play with his favorite toys. He gets along with female cats, afraid of dogs, and doesn’t appreciate tom cats looking through the window at him.
He loves to sleep in bed with his human and would love to share a home with a female cat.
Greyson is now healthy, neutered, up-to-date on rabies and distemper vaccines, virus-tested negative, dewormed, treated with Revolution as flea preventative and micro-chipped. He even had full bloodwork and urinalysis.

To meet and possibly adopt handsome and sweet Greyson, please fill out an adoption application https://friendsofpetraits.com/cat-adoption-application/

Her adoption fee of $175 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. He is currently being fostered in Rockford, Illinois.
