Persephone - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Meet Persephone!

Persephone is a young , sweet, calico kitty that is looking for a patient and loving home! She came to us after being surrendered by her owner's family because he had passed away and his family couldn't care for her and her sister. She is shy at first and takes a few days to warm up to her environment and new people, but once she's comfortable she is your best friend! With all the changes she's endured in the last few weeks, she is the most resilient girl!

Persephone is now waiting for her last change; finding her family! She is ready to be someone's best friend, cuddle bug, and reading buddy! She's the perfect cat to bird watch with and binge watch all your favorite shows! She's ready to have her own little spot again, in your heart and in your home! Are you Perseohone's match?

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

Persephone is currently staying onsite at our Heartland Facility! Stop by during our open hours on Thursday 4pm-7pm, Friday 4pm-7pm, Saturday Noon-6pm or Sunday Noon-6pm to meet her! No appointment necessary.
