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.

Chicago Bears Kittens
Briggs, Hester and Urlacher
These three male kittens are currently living together. They can be adopted together, in a pair or separately if there is a cat already in the home.
They are about 3 months old as of January. They are up-to-date on shots, dewormed, FIV/FELV negative, and microchipped.
They are 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 depending on what the vet says.

Briggs (Male)
This adorable black shorthair male kitten is the social butterfly of his little family. While his brothers Urlacher and Hester are wonderful companions, Briggs stands out as the friendliest and most outgoing of the bunch. He's always the first to greet you with curiosity and affection, and his playful energy is absolutely infectious. Briggs lives for playtime—whether it's chasing toys, pouncing on his brothers, or exploring every corner of his space, he's always ready for fun and adventure. His confident, loving nature makes him an absolute joy to be around, and he's sure to bring endless entertainment and warmth to his forever home. If you're looking for a playful, affectionate companion who'll greet you with enthusiasm every day, Briggs is your guy! |
Hester
|
Hester (Male)
This adorable longhaired black beauty is the perfect combination of cuddly and playful. He loves nothing more than settling into a warm lap for quality cuddle time, where he's content to just hang out and soak up affection. When he's not being a professional lap warmer, you'll find him romping around with his brothers Briggs and Urlacher—the three are quite the trio! Hester's gorgeous black coat and sweet temperament make him an absolute delight. He's social, affectionate, and has that wonderful kitten energy balanced with an impressive ability to just chill with his humans. If you're looking for a loving companion who enjoys both playtime adventures and cozy snuggle sessions, Hester might be your perfect match! |
Urlacher
|
Urlacher (Male)
Urlacher is a handsome black shorthaired male kitten with a gentle soul and a playful spirit. As the biggest of his three-brother crew (along with Briggs and Hester), this striking boy has a wonderful presence but takes his time warming up to affection. While he might be a bit shy about being held and petted at first, Urlacher's loving nature shines through once he sees his brothers getting cuddles—then he's ready for his turn! This sweet boy is all about playtime and absolutely adores roughhousing and playing with his brothers and/or any toys. Urlacher would thrive in a home where he can continue to build confidence and receive patient, gentle encouragement. He's learning that human affection is wonderful, and with time and love, he'll become an even more affectionate companion. Urlacher would do wonderfully in a home with one or both of his brothers, as their bond helps him feel secure and confident. If you're looking for a beautiful boy with a big heart who just needs a little patience, Urlacher might be your perfect match! |

Ironman
|
Ironman may not wear a metal suit, but this handsome brown tabby definitely has superhero style—and a heart that runs on love. While he sometimes plays it cool at first (he is named after Tony Stark, after all), it doesn’t take long for him to power up his purrs and come looking for affection.
His favorite hideout is under the dresser, where he can nap in peace, but as soon as his foster parent enters the room—especially in the morning—Ironman is right there, ready to connect. He’s loyal, calm, and always keeping an eye on his brother, drawing courage and inspiration from Spiderman’s adventurous nature. |
Spiderman
|
Spiderman is sleek, black, and ready for action—complete with a classy tuxedo look and bold white paws that look like they’re built for slinging webs and scaling rooftops. This confident cat loves to explore, perch up high, and observe the world from above. Always curious and full of quiet energy, Spiderman takes the lead on every adventure, and his brother Ironman follows closely behind, relying on Spiderman’s bravery to guide them.
Despite his name, Spiderman isn’t shy when it comes to affection. He enjoys attention and being near his humans—especially when it’s time to relax and recharge from his heroic missions. Together with Ironman, they make an incredible team. |
They are being cared for by our foster-based rescue, and are ready to find their forever home today! The adoption fee of $125 EACH will benefit other animals in our care.

Kai

Meet Kai and Rey, a bonded pair of fun!
Kai (Female) - I like to explore constantly. I have a super zest for life, since it seems pretty cool with lots of places to investigate. I love climbing on my foster mom’s back and sniffing her ears to make her laugh, that is so fun. My favorite song is “Walking on Sunshine”, because I’m always so happy. I love discovering new corners and climbing to see the view from above. I'm an independent spirit, but I'm also super friendly. I love making new friends, both human and feline. I'm curious about everything around me, always eager to learn and experience new things. My playful nature keeps me happy all the time. Life's a game, and I'm always ready to play! |
Rey
|
Rey (Male) - I am a super snuggler. I love to curl up in my foster mom’s lap for pets. I will look as cute as possible for attention. I also love to just relax and watch the world around me and learn. My favorite song is “Sitting on the Dock of the Bay”. But, don't let my laid-back demeanor fool you though, I'm also quite the playful chap, when the mood strikes me.
I believe every day is an opportunity for a new adventure or a relaxing snooze, depending on my mood. If you're looking for a feline friend who can bring both fun and tranquility to your life, then I'm your guy. |
