Tammi - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Wheaton, Illinois

Meet Tammi, a beautiful white cat with striking black spots who has officially retired from her mama duties and is ready to find her own forever family.

Meet Tammi
• Appearance: A gorgeous "cow-cat" coat—pure white with unique black spots
• Personality: Deeply maternal, endlessly compassionate, and profoundly sweet
• Signature Quirks: Gently places her paw on your leg for attention and rolls over to show her belly
• Ideal Home: A warm, loving family ready to spoil the sweetest surrogate mom in the world

Her Story
Tammi is a natural caregiver through and through. While she raised her own kittens with endless patience and meticulous baths, her maternal instincts went even further: she willingly took in and nursed other kittens who weren't even her own. Now that all of those lucky babies have grown and moved on to their own families, Tammi is ready for a home where she is the one being looked after.

Why You Will Love Her
Tammi has a heart of gold and a deeply trusting nature. The moment she greets you, she might roll right over to show you her belly, or reach out with a soft paw on your leg to let you know she is ready for some well-deserved affection. She is a gentle, young soul who will pour the same loyalty and love she gave to every stray kitten straight into her new human companion.
