Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheaton, Illinois

Lady Gaga is a one-of-a-kind beauty—a quirky “tabico” (tabby + calico) with a personality just as unique as her look. About 2 years old, this affectionate girl loves attention and isn't shy about asking for it.

Her signature move? A greeting trill that sounds a little like a growl! It may surprise you at first, but it's just Gaga being Gaga—her funny way of saying hello. Once you get to know her, it's part of her charm.

Lady Gaga enjoys pets and affection, though like many cats she appreciates reading her signals and giving her a break if she gets overstimulated. She's expressive and honest about how she feels, which makes it easy to understand her once you know her cues.

If you're looking for a cat with character, charm, and a little bit of diva energy, Lady Gaga is ready to take center stage in your heart.
