Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Sweet, sweet Prim. She is just an angel. She loves her people harder than you could ever imagine. She always checks in when she's playing, not wanting to be away from her people for too long. She has had the toughest journey, sticking to the bottom of the weight chart, but she is absolutely thriving now. She loves to sit on your lap, and kiss your nose. She also has been known as a bit of a parrot in the house, sitting on her foster's shoulders while they work. She may be the smallest, but she runs the fastest, so don't worry, you will stay entertained! If you bring her into your home, we promise you won't regret it.

Prim is up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines and dewormings.

She has not been SPAYED/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 a time for their surgery. We will schedule, transport, and ensure surgery and then refund you your deposit once completed.

Prim 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 them! No appointment necessary.
