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

Velmo is a handsome tuxedo boy who is 100% charm, confidence, and curiosity, and the undisputed big brother of his litter — always the first to explore, the first to climb, and the first to investigate anything new.

Precocious and adventurous, Velmo leads every expedition with bravery and smarts. If there's a toy to chase or a cat tree to conquer, he's already on it. He's the kind of kitten who makes every day feel fun and full of possibility.

Velma is also wonderfully people-loving. He assumes every human he meets is his new best friend, greeting you with bright eyes and instant trust. After his adventures, he's happy to curl up in your lap for well-earned scratches and snuggles.

If you're looking for a kitten who brings joy, energy, and affection in equal measure, Velma is your guy — an outgoing sweetheart ready to fill your home with love.

While Velmo can be adopted singly, he would be happiest if adopted with one of his siblings, Shaggy, Frida, or Daphnis, or into a home with a young resident cat.
