Orzo - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Hillside, Illinois

Meet Orzo who is approximately 4 months old.

Orzo’s journey to his forever home has already been quite the adventure! This handsome, little black kitten was found near a hotel and brought to safety, but unfortunately, he wasn’t quite out of the woods yet. Shortly after being rescued, Orzo developed an upper respiratory infection that landed him in the hospital for a short stay so he could get the care he needed.

Orzo is an incredibly loving little guy with a bit of a lazy streak. He definitely loves to play, explore, and climb as high as he can on the cat tree, but cuddling is his #1 priority. If there’s a cozy spot or a person available for snuggles, Orzo is there!

He’s also already quite the little adventurer. Because he needed round-the-clock care for a few days, Orzo got to tag along with his foster family and even experience life at the beach! From a sick little kitten needing syringe feedings to a happy, playful boy enjoying a normal kitten life, his recovery has been nothing but incredible to watch.

Orzo is dog and cat friendly and would actually prefer a forever home with another furry friend to keep him company
