Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Chai - A Tiny Heart on Four Paws
Chai doesn't care about toys as much as they care about you. While the other kittens are busy playing, Chai is looking for the nearest lap to curl into. This is a "velcro" kitten who will follow you from room to room just to make sure they aren't missing out on any head scratches or snuggles.

Chai is up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines and dewormings. He has not been neutered yet but it is important to us that all of our animals are fixed and so we ask that you put down a $100 refundable deposit while we schedule his neuter appointment.

Chai is currently staying at our Heartland Facility! We are open Thursday 4 pm-7 pm, Friday 4 pm-7 pm, Saturday Noon-6 pm, and Sunday Noon-6 pm. Feel free to stop by to meet him! No appointment necessary.
