Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Wheeling, Illinois

Meet Princess!

Princess is a sweetheart with lots of energy and endless purrs. She is a great example of what a little love, time and care can do for a kitten. She used to hiss when approached by humans but now she is a total love bug who learned that some humans can be trusted. She can be found playing with mice and spring toys or snuggling up to one of her foster humans. If you play games on your phone, she likes to join in too. She keeps asking for her own smartphone but we told her she will have to settle for her ball track toy. Princess had a blast with her sibling, Cali, while in foster care and she will definitely need a playmate to grow up with.

Princess is up-to-date on her FVRCP vaccines.

She has not been spayed 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 to spay this sweetie. We will schedule, transport, and ensure she is spayed and then refund you your deposit once completed.

Princess 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.
