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

Meet Trudi!

Trudi is sweet and quiet in comparison to her big brothers -- however, she will hold her own during play time. She loves all types of toys - springs, kick toys, ping pong balls, little stuffies - she also likes the laser pointer. She has come a long way! She loves to make biscuits and suckle on a fluffy cat bed - please make sure she has a fluffy bead. She will come to you for love and attention when she is ready. She will tolerate being held for awhile -- but LOVES being petted and she will stay right next to you. She loves the churro treats and will come to you when she sees the tube. She will lick it off of your finger - she won't bite.

She came into Heartland as a very scared stray. You couldn't touch her or be close to her, but in foster care, she has made great progress.

She will tolerate being picked up for awhile -- however, she likes to be pet more while sitting next to you.

She is used to having videos on or music.

She is litter box trained - using clumping litter.

She is used to having water and dry food out all day and he has been fed wet food in the morning and in the evening (Kitten Fancy Feast).

She may need extra love and time to get to her loving kitty stage in her new home. Suggest to put her in a small room and spend time with her there before giving him the whole house.

She is ok at getting her into the carrier - she will probably hide under the blanket while she is in there.

Trudi is spayed and up-to-date on her FVRCP and Rabies vaccines.

She is currently staying in a lovely foster home. Email cats@heartlandanimalshelter.org to set up a time to meet her!
