Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Woodstock, Illinois

Our sweetest boy, Tigger, came to us from Southern IL. After having him for a couple days we noticed, what looked to be, some type of wound on his paw pad. After further inspection, he was diagnosed with Pillow Foot, which is a skin disease. It causes the paw pad(s) to become swollen and mushy. He is currently on an antibiotic and it is helping him so much! He is showing us his true personality now that he is feeling better; he is just the SWEETEST boy. He is extremely outgoing. He asks for 'uppies' by almost climbing up your pants leg. (at least he's gentle about it!) Once he gets into your arms, he is as happy as can be, purring away and making muffins. He is truly the best at giving hugs, quite literally wrapping his front legs around you! Tigger has so much love to give and is so desperate to show humans that he is the best boy. Want to give him a chance? Call us to meet him. You will not be disappointed!
