Nora - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Herrin, Illinois

How can we even begin to put Nora into words? We lovingly describe her as aggressively affectionate.

Nora will circle your lap, rub her face all over you, and purr so loudly that it turns into the cutest high-pitched rumbling meow. When she wants love, trust us, you'll know!

Like many Thistle Cats, Nora came to us from our local animal control facility on the very day she was scheduled to be euthanized. She had arrived there alone, so she was paired with two other single kittens around her age.

Nora was incredibly sick with an upper respiratory infection when we took her in. After weeks of antibiotics, eye medication, lots of monitoring, and making sure she continued to eat, she finally started feeling better. And little by little, her confidence and huge personality came bursting through.

Now there is absolutely no stopping her, or that adorable little voice she uses whenever she decides she needs something!

Nora is playful, loving, social, and looking for a home with another playful cat or dog, or she can be adopted alongside another playful Thistle Cat kitten.

If you're looking for a cat who believes there is simply no such thing as too much affection, Nora might be your girl.
