Notes on Adopting Cats:
Kittens under 12 weeks old: We do our best to determine the gender of all available kittens, but it's sometimes difficult to know for sure until they see a vet when they're between 8 and 12 weeks old. Kitten listings are subject to change.
CPR's Position on Declawing: CPR is opposed to declawing cats for the convenience of their guardians. Declawing is NOT allowed.
Cats with an Ear Tip: An adoptable cat may be missing a small piece of their ear, known as Ear Tipping. This is done as part of the feral package (spay/neuter and rabies vaccine). This is an universally recognized, safe and humane procedure that is done while the cat is under anesthesia for spay/neuter surgery. An ear tip is a visual indicator that a cat has previously been altered and vaccinated, which can be seen from a distance, and prevents re-trapping. When they are first trapped we don't know if they will be friendly or feral. Once they have been fixed, we evaluate and, if they are friendly, they are made available for adoption.

This is the type of dark beer anyone can love!
Tyskie (M) is the epitome of charm and playfulness wrapped up in a sleek black Domestic Shorthair mix. This dashing male kitten boasts a touch of white on his chest, adding to his handsome allure. Zywiec (F) is a charming black Domestic Shorthair mix with a delightful dash of white on her chest. This sweet and sociable female kitten is as elegant as she is affectionate. Tyskie and Zywiec have an unbreakable bond that adds an extra layer of sweetness to their story. Their bond is something truly special, and they're seeking a forever home where they can stay together and continue their adventures side by side. For Tyskie, every day is an opportunity for fun and frolic. Bursting with kitten energy, he's always up for a game of chase or a spirited romp around the house. But when it's time to unwind, you'll find him nestled close to his sister, sharing warmth and companionship as they drift off to sleep.Like any typical young kitten, Tyskie is a delightful mix of affectionate, playful, and curious. With his outgoing personality and zest for life, he's sure to bring endless joy and laughter to his new family. Although Zywiec may be a tad smaller than her brother, she more than holds her own when it comes to energy and playfulness.

Adopt Zywiec and Tyskie today and embark on an unforgettable journey with two of the most lovable kittens around! They are each looking for a forever home that is willing to foster to adopt until they are old enough to be fixed. Foster to adopt means, they will be living with you and you will be responsible for them (including financially) but the adoption will not be finalized until they are fixed. That usually happens around 6 months for females, depending on what the vet says. Tyskie and Zywiec are up-to-date on vaccinations, dewormed, FIV/FELV negative, and microchipped. They are currently being cared for by our rescue, but would like you to make one or more of them a part of your family today! The adoption fee of $250.00 ($125.00 Each) will also benefit other Chicago Pet Rescue animals. Current Location: Petsmart, Village Crossing on Touhy Ave, Skokie |
