Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Chicago, Illinois

Our Midnight is a hidden treasure. She believes that and so will you, if you choose her as your friend and constant companion. While she is unassuming in appearance, Midnight is a spunky, indomitable queen of a kitty who believes she is the "top dog" of the household. (Top cat???) Unlike most royalty, however, Midnight is very affectionate and lovable as can be to her peers, so long as they are human, but not at all tolerant of lesser beings - other cats, that is, who will be treated with considerable (and noisy) disdain. Although of mature years, after her lifelong human companion passed, Midnight has adapted remarkably swiftly to her new environment in foster care. She has learned her name to the word "no", which she pays attention to insofar as her royal status allows. She is a playful, curious and quite fearless kitty who adores human attention and meows softly, pushing gently with her nose to keep her human petting her, or putting out her paw for attention, which she of course deserves. Sleeping with you is another desirable activity. Midnight has been front declawed. A superior companion awaits you!

Midnight desires to be the only feline in her household, and we desire to grant her wish. Like all our single cats, we seek a home for Midnight in which her human is home a good deal of the time, and who doesn't have extended hours away from home. Single kitties are at risk for becoming lonely and bored!

If you would like to discuss meeting and possibly adopting Midnight, email: info@chicagocatrescue.org. No texts please.
