ADOPTION UPDATE!!
We love getting updates and hearing how well CARA pets are doing in their new homes! Thank you Kaitlyn for giving this baby a wonderful home! Here's a word from Sunbird's new mom,

"Merlin (Sunbird) is doing amazing! He loves to nap, use his scratching board, and play with his new big sister, Juno! They have become great friends! :-) Attached are some pictures of Merlin!

Thank you so much for the opportunity to meet and adopt this cute kitten! So excited to watch him become a part of my family!"

Beautiful Biscuit. What a journey she has been on in her short two years. She came to us a pregnant mom, had babies, and was a great mom. Then she got tired of the cage life and went to live in a home, unfortunately it didn't work for Biscuit so she is back looking for a home. She hates cage life so she is now in a free roaming room and enjoying the space with a handful of long term term resident cats. Once she settles in, she is friendly, loves being petted, and loves her people. She will need an adult home where the cats allow her space to acclimate. She would also be great as an only pet. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

If you have the place for her, please email us at [email protected]. And contact 217-799-8858 or 217-655-4353 with any questions. We are located at 609 East 5th street Tilton, Il 61833.

Beautiful one year old seal point Siamese, brown, is Scarlett. She came in with Rhett, and her world was turned upside down, but she's safe with us now. She's been slow to come out but each day is warming up more. She will take a minute and would prefer a calm home. She's currently in a room with other males and a female, and likes them to stay out of her bubble, but otherwise has done really well with them. She lived with 4 other cats in her previous home. She's hoping to have a short stay with us. She's spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

Rhett! This incredibly handsome boy is 1 year old. His world has been topsy turvy, but he is safe now and settling in. He's just hoping to find a forever home and finally rest. He's timid at first in a new space, but he's a nice boy. He lived in a home and is house savvy. Once Rhett is settled in and comfortable, he's full of personality. He loves hair ties and will play fetch! He's sweet, loveable, and friendly. He's in a room with other male and female cats, he's not an alpha. He's neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.
