Kitties!!!!

Our kittens are ready to go!!!! We need to clear space for the next batch and we need a break to regroup before spring TNR starts. We are mainly a TNR group, after all......
Our wonderful kitties all come spayed or neutered, with vaccinations & a microchip. They're flea and parasite free. They're all dog and cat friendly. They all purr with glee, play and cuddle - each has a wonderful, unique personality.
Alice & Archie 2 cutie patooties. Sweet, playful, affectionate. Both born in September in Berwyn, been here since about 7 weeks old. Dependent and independent. They love human affection and play but are comfortable playing and hanging together. Wonderful companions for you and for each other.

Pecko & Earline Grey

These babies came from the yard of a wonderful caregiver. A couple in their '80's feed a colony and have devoted their enclosed patio to their cats, who are free to go in and out but have canned and kibble 2x a day. We met them this summer when we TNR'd their colony - lovely people who take really good care of their 'yard cats'.

Both females, born in June, are wonderfully friendly. And, of course, very cuddly, affectionate and playful. Sisters, they're being adopted as a pair.

Then There's Vito!!!! Everybody that meets him falls in love with him. He is incredibly engaging. Absolutely gorgeous with a wonderful personality. Vito gets along great with other cats but he's primarily a 'people' cat. One of 3 that could be 'circus cats' they're so smart. (His brother, Hustus and sister, Margo, were recently adopted into a wonderful new home) Vito naturally gravitates to shoulders where he's learning to balance quite well during walking. He's looking for a home where he'll get to give and get a lot of love. Someplace where someones around about 75% of the time. He looks like a Maine Coon and feels like a Chinchilla.

To inquire about any of these kitties for adoption please comment and we'll get back to you. We're located in Maywood, IL, near Chicago.

Our PetSmart Adoption Event

The Brookfield Zoo Bear Meets Cat VanGogh at our 1st PetSmart Adoption Event!!!
We had a great time and adopted 5 kittens and Sweet Cheeks (Yeah!!!).
Considering it was the weekend in September with the monsoon rain and closed roads, we were thrilled. Just goes to show you, some people are just animal crazy!!!! Gotta love those crazy coots!
Our summer student workers, Jasmine & Amber were joined by their Mom, Naja to help keep the kitties happy and help prospective new parents. Janet Pendell, another CatVando volunteer was there too. The Cat Man brought us a welcome lunch on Saturday.
It was a great weekend - nothing like being around people who love animals.

What's Blooming on Harrison!

Our kitties were a big hit at What's Blooming in May. Linda Broccolo, CatVando Volunteer and wonderful Colony Manager did a great job keeping the kitties happy and the crowds. Kids and adults alike loved playing with the kittens with feathered sticks and our babies took to the streets very well. No adoptions but lots of education.

A great Sat & Sun in May, we enjoyed the people, the weather and our great spot in front of Sirius Cooks.

KITTIES! Margo

It's Margo of Elmwood!
Margo is a hoot! And, what a surprise. She's about 3 months old, small and when she started out, she was black. After about 2 months, she started turning almost irridescent silver - sort of like the reverse of a Silverback Gorilla. She looks evil in this photo but she's not - she's sweet and still changing color! Very playful. Still a bit shy but loves to be loved and relaxes as soon as she gets cuddled. Loves belly rubs. She could be adopted alone or with her brother, Hustus - not pictured, but a beautiful orange tabby with medium length hair like Margo. She's from the yard of another excellent CareGiver. One of three of a litter. We've had her since early August and she's ready for just the right new home.
