Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheaton, Illinois

Meet Tilly!

Tilly is a sweet, shy girl looking for a home that understands she might need a little extra time to warm up. But once she feels safe, Tilly melts for pets and head scratches. She is a big fan of canned food and will definitely need a home that has a friendly kitty to help her feel more confident. Tilly is a beautiful girl with the biggest eyes and softest fur. She has a very unique head tilt from a bad ear infection prior to coming to St Sophia's. The head tilt does not affect her movement in any way, she gets around like any other cat.
