Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption

Meet Bitsey

Bitsey is a shy, sensitive girl who approaches the world very cautiously. New people, new places, and sudden changes can feel overwhelming for her, and she'll often choose to observe quietly from a safe hiding spot. She's not the kind of cat who rushes up for attention-instead, Bitsey needs plenty of patience, calm, and gentle reassurance to feel secure. With time and consistency, she can slowly learn to trust, but her future home should be one that understands and respects her need for space. Bitsey would do best in a quiet household with someone willing to let her move entirely at her own pace.

Stop in and meet Bitsey in person during our adoption hours. For more information, email info@ahconnects.org or call us at 847-697-2880 x: 0, and the staff will be happy to help you.

All of our cats and kittens go home spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on their core vaccines, as well as flea and tick preventatives. Each adoption also includes a 3.5-pound bag of Iams cat food and a free vet exam at one of our participating veterinary partners.
