To adopt a pet from us you must submit a CPR application. NOTE: reference checks (if applicable) and phone/video interviews will be done before application is approved for you to meet the pet. Our pets are adopted to the best home for them, NOT on a first come first serve. You can submit an application via our home page or check on your status, via email at followup@chicagopetrescue.org.
CPR limits meeting the cats at the pet stores until after your application is approved.

Are you interested in adopting?If you would like to find out more about one of our available pets, please email us at followup@chicagopetrescue.org or fill out an adoption application. For most KITTENS we require they be adopted in pairs or separately (if another cat or kitten already lives in the home). If you can't adopt, please donate. Thank you for helping to save a life!
FYI: Regarding cats who have EAR tip....You might see some of our cats up for adoption are missing a small piece of their ear, that is called Ear Tipping. This is done as part of the feral package. When they are first trapped we don't know if they will be friendly or feral. An ear tip is the removal of about one centimeter of the tip of a cat's ear. 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. Because feral cats can be difficult to get close to, the ear tip can be seen from a distance and helps prevent re-trapping, transport, stress, and unnecessary anesthesia. Once they have been fixed, we evaluate and if they are friendly they are made available for adoption. |

Happ
|
Meet Happ! Happ is short for happiness as Happ might be the happiest kitty we have ever met! He loves to cuddle and put his face right up next to yours, he doesn’t understand or respect personal space, but that’s ok, it’s what makes him one of the sweetest and happiest kitties we’ve ever met!
Happ came to us as a stray, but he is now fixed up to date on his vaccines, he’s been dewormed, microchipped and is negative for FIV/FELV. We estimate that Happ is about two years old. He is a Domestic Shorthair mix and has brown tabby markings. Happ loves to be pet and rub on you. He also loves to play and really likes to bat and catch the feather wand toys. Happ is currently being cared for by our rescue, but he’d like to be a part of your family today! This sweet boy is very happy to meet everyone, but he will be especially happy to meet his new forever family. Is that you? His adoption fee is $125 and will also benefit other CPR rescue animals. Current Location: Petsmart - Village Crossing Skokie IL |

Leinster & Ulster
Leinster
Ulster
|
Meet Leinster & Ulster! They are both male, fixed, up-to-date on shots, dewormed, FIV/FELV negative, and microchipped. Leinster & Ulster are currently living together, but they can be adopted together or separately if there is another cat in the household. Leinster is a sweet little buff tabby domestic shorthair. He is a little anxious at first, but once you get him comfortable, he’s a cat lap-blanket. He’ll purr and sleep on your lap in the evenings longer than you likely can sit on the couch with him. Leinster loves to eat, so is very food-motivated. Ulster is a sweet little orange tabby domestic shorthair. He is Mr. Adventurous. He immediately checked out the cat toys and the cat tree, and he really wants to play with the big boys — the adult cats in the foster home. Ulster will snuggle for a bit, then he’s off to the next adventure. In fact, he can’t be bothered with finishing his meal before he’s off to other things. They play well together and both get along well with the other cats in the household. They both don’t seem to care much about the resident dog. They are currently being cared for by our rescue, but would like you to make one or both of them a part of your family today! The adoption fee of $125 EACH will benefit other CPR rescue animals. Current location: Foster home |

Mercedes
Meet Mercedes! She is about 4 years old, fixed, up-to-date on shots, dewormed, FIV/FELV negative, and microchipped. Mercedes is a sweet cat who loves to be pet and will snuggle and purr next to you once she is comfortable. She may spook if you move too quickly and it helps if you actively chat with her as you approach. She may hide from new people at first, but once she gets comfortable, she loves being pet and nuzzling you. She especially likes to be pet on her head, shoulders and also loves cheek and chin scritches. She even sleeps on the bed with her foster humans. She's a little hesitant, at first, around other kitties but likes to play and chase once she's comfortable. She's quite verbal! She will beg or chat with tiny mews. She is very curious, mostly independent, and likes to lounge during the day. She may not be good with dogs or small children, due to her shyness. She likes calmer cats better. Note: she has had seizures in the past but has been weaned off all medications without any issues. We are looking for a family to give her the love and the life she deserves. She is currently being cared for by our rescue, but would like you to make her a part of your family today! The adoption fee of $100 will benefit other CPR rescue animals. Current location: Foster home |

Rafferty & Saoirse
|
Meet Rafferty (male) & Saoirse (female)! They are fixed, up-to-date on shots, dewormed, FIV/FELV negative, and microchipped. Rafferty and Saoirse are currently living together, but they can be adopted together or separately if there is another cat in the household. Rafferty is a male black and white domestic shorthair mix with a mostly white back and black splotches on his upper back and sides. His nose is a dark pink, and his eyes are large and bright. He is still a bit shy but LOVES being held and cuddled. When he is in the mood, be prepared, he will not want to leave your lap. Otherwise, his favorite hangouts are high up in cat towers, on window ledges or under beds. Saoirse is a female black and white domestic shorthair mix with a mostly white back and black splotches on her back and sides. Her nose is light pink, and her eyes are smaller than her brother’s eyes. She is smaller in size than her brother, but more vocal and braver. She is very opinionated and adventurous. She's not particularly fond of being held or cuddled, but she owns the whole bed and if you happen to be in the bed, she will simply sleep on you. These two are currently being cared for by our rescue. They would like you to make one or both of them a part of your family today! The adoption fee of $125 EACH will benefit other CPR rescue animals. Current Location: Foster Home |
