Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Skokie, Illinois

Aunt Gladys and Nebula are a bonded pair and must be adopted together.

Hi, I'm Aunt Gladys. You may have heard whispers about me ~ the Box Queen and slightly younger (but arguably wiser) sister of Nebula. Our foster mom says I'm an architectural visionary. My passion? Cardboard boxes. Big boxes, little boxes ~ any box will do. My favorite thing in the whole wide world? A fluffy bed tucked inside a big cardboard box. That's my throne room where I can nap like a tiny, fluffy empress surveying my domain!

Not only is Nebula the sparkly, mysterious, guardian of the universe, she's also a professional Big Bed Sleeper! When nighttime comes, she boldly goes where no kitten has gone before ~ straight to the big bed with our foster mom. She believes in full-contact cuddling, and as an added service, she offers complimentary hair styling. If your hair happens to be near her mouth during snuggle time, she will gently chew it. She says it's called bonding!

We are playful, affectionate, and extremely good at being adorable. However, we must be transparent: we do not appreciate unsolicited face wiping or paw cleaning. We prefer to manage our own beauty routines. If you approach with a wipe, you'll likely get some side-eye. But other than that, we're purrfect, so please hurry over to meet us!
