Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Meet Moon!

Moon is a sweet young gray cat with a gentle soul and a heart full of love. She may be soft and quiet at first, but once she feels comfortable, Moon blossoms into an affectionate companion who enjoys cozy naps, gentle pets, and staying close to her favorite people. Her beautiful gray coat and bright, curious eyes make her just as stunning as she is lovable. Playful, loving, and endlessly charming, Moon is ready to light up her forever home with warmth and companionship. She came into Heartland from Chicago Animal Care and Control in mid-April along with her sweet friend Star.

Moon is spayed, up-to-date on her FVRCP and Rabies vaccines, and she is FIV and FeLV negative.

She 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 her! No appointment necessary.
