Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Meet Ozzy!

Ozzy is a young brown tabby with a personality as big as his zoomies! This playful little guy is always on the move-whether he's chasing after toy mice, pouncing on toy balls, or turning everyday objects into his personal jungle gym. Ozzy's curiosity knows no bounds, and he approaches life with wide-eyed excitement and a dash of mischief.

When he's not busy showing off his acrobatic skills, Ozzy loves to engage his humans in playtime, happily batting at feather wands or racing through the house in bursts of energy. Despite his spirited nature, he has a sweet side too-after a long day of adventures, he'll happily curl up nearby, purring contentedly as he recharges for his next round of fun.

Ozzy is the perfect mix of silly, energetic, and affectionate, and he's sure to bring laughter and liveliness to any home lucky enough to have him.

He is neutered, up-to-date on his FVRCP and Rabies vaccines, and he is FIV and FeLV negative.

Ozzy 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.
