My story

Smush is our model cat. His baby pictures would give any star catfood brand ambassador a run for its money. Smush went from zero to hero as the runt being smushed at the bottom of the pile to now being the biggest and strongest of the bunch. Like a diamond the pressure transformed him into a solid stud. Maybe because of that is why he loves close body contact. When playing and lounging he loves being close to you. He's snuggled up next to me right now as I write this! He is both independent, smart and patient. He's cunning and thinks steps ahead when playing. He doesn't need to be the first to investigate things, but will analyze and calculate before he makes his move. With that confidence he's not easily scared or traumatized, which makes for an amazingly calm and easy to handle baby. Smush needs a buddy! He can be placed with another kitten in our care, or would be the perfect companion to a kitten already in your home! If you would like to meet and possibly adopt this amazing feline, please email info@chicagocatrescue.org or call 773/203-0215. No texts, please. CCR adopts to forever homes in Chicago or the very near suburbs that are within 10 miles of our Chicago foster families. We love our cats and we pledge support for the rest of their lives, which is why our location limits are in place. We appreciate your understanding. If you are outside of these limits, please check petfinder.com, which allows searching by zip code, for cats closer to your home. At Chicago Cat Rescue, we are dedicated to both the physical and emotional well being of the cats and kittens in our care. For this reason, unless expressly stated, we do not place cats or kittens in homes where they will be the only cat. In our experience, most cats love the company of other cats, and can become quite lonely when living alone. Kittens will only be placed in pairs, or to join another kitten or young cat in your home. Chicago Cat Rescue is an entirely foster based organization. Our ability to help more cats in need is dependent on our availability of foster homes. If you think you could provide a loving foster situation for a cat in need, or would like to learn more about our foster program, please email us, foster@chicagocatrescue.org. Thank you!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Smush, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
