Mikey (k2026) - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Skokie, Illinois

Mikey and Carmy are a bonded pair and must be adopted together.

Hi, I'm Mikey. I started out a little unsure about people, but I've been making great progress. These days I'll come sit next to my foster person on my own and accept gentle pets. I still appreciate a slow introduction and some patience, but once I'm comfortable, my personality really shines.

I'm playful, curious, and full of kitten energy. I love wand toys, boxes, crinkle balls, and the cat dancer. One of my favorite things is gently bopping hands and feet without using my claws. My foster family says my big, expressive eyes are impossible to resist, and I'm also known for being an excellent eater.

Carmy gives me confidence, and I love having him around. We wrestle, chase toys, and then settle down together afterward. If you're willing to give me a little time to adjust, you'll be rewarded with a sweet companion who is learning more every day that people are pretty great.

Carmy and I complement each other beautifully. Carmy is the social butterfly who loves cuddles and attention, while I'm the thoughtful observer who gains confidence from my brother's example. Together we bring twice the fun, twice the purring, and a heartwarming friendship that is a joy to watch.
