Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheaton, Illinois

O'Malley is a mover and shaker. He made Time's 100 Most Influential People and Forbes' 30 Under 30 this year. He moonlights as an engineer, working tirelessly each day to launch his hanging door mouse toy faster and further than the day before. He may have a little touch of RBF, or maybe it's just his refined nature peeking out in his kittenhood. He is always the first to try out a new toy or explore a new area, but absolutely loves playing with his siblings as well. He is confidently independent but purrs the minute you pick him up, happy to snuggle before released back to his experiments. Adding this little guy to your home would bring you not only social prestige from his already-outsized reputation, but endless amounts of fun and love as well.
