Adoptable Pets of the Week

By Kevin Robinson in Miscellaneous on Aug 25, 2010 6:00PM

Rose is a sweet five year old. With her sympathetic eyes, she is understanding, patient and loves you even when you don\'t deserve it. ACC staff says she loves everyone.

With her pastel palette of pink and peach coloring on her soft coat, she is a looker, but it never goes to her head. She is calm, devoted and patient. To meet her is to love her. Perfect for any home with older children and adult/animals.

Loquat is quiet and calm, loving and patient. She is the type of gal you want to come home to after a long day at work. She will always be there for you! Wonderful with older children, adults and animals.

This large lover boy loves to love almost as much as he loves to lounge - preferably on your lap. This guy has to be seen to be believed. He is truly magnificent.

Ashes is such a beautiful cat, but sadly, this little angel has been waiting awhile for a home to call her own and someone to love. Could it be you?

As we mentioned last week, Chicago's Animal Care and Control is swamped with pets after taking in over 50 cats from a local animal hoarder. Last week we featured some of the dogs that ACC needs to adopt into loving homes to make room. This week, we're taking a look at some of the cats. And don't forget, if you don't see a pet you love here, there are still lots of dogs and cats at Chicago's Animal Care and Control that still haven't been adopted - you can check them all out here. If you got space in your home and room in your heart, won't you consider adopting one of these wonderful pets from Chicago's Animal Care and Control?

Rose, Cali, Loquat, Romeo and Ashes are all waiting for a loving home, right here in your city. As always, the adoption fee is $65.00 which includes spay/neuter, vaccines, a microchip and a city license, and all cats are screened for FIV. If you have room in your heart and your home for these pets, Chicago Animal Care & Control, at 2741 S. Western Ave in Chicago, is open for adoptions Monday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. and on Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. You can visit in person, are call or email Patty Cerny, adoption volunteer, at (773) 230-2542 or email at graz97 [at] aol [dot] com.

If you want to keep up with goings on at ACC, become a fan of Cherie Travis, Chicago Commissioner of Animal Care and Control on Facebook.

And remember: plenty of the previous animals we've featured are also still available for adoption.
