Would you look at this ADORABLE unlikely duo 😍😍😍

And no, they’re not a mom & son!

The big gal is Eclipse— a mild CH kitty who does the cutest little stomps everywhere she goes!

And the baby is Curry— a kitten with total hind limb paralysis who uses his front legs to zoom around while his hind legs drag behind him 🩵

Eclipse & Curry have formed the most adorable, unique bond. They follow each other around all day, groom each other, play & snuggle up together 🥹

Adopting them out together would be an absolute miracle but one they both deserve 💖

Please so we can reach Eclipse & Curry’s people.

In honor of National Cat Day, we’re shining a spotlight on our four longest-term residents who are still waiting for their forever homes! ❤️

Each of these cats has a story, a personality all their own, and so much love to give. They may need a little extra care, but we know the right homes are out there for them.

Zara came to us in March with a spinal injury. She’s beloved by our entire team and despite being partially paralyzed, gets around just fine using her front legs! Zara does need assistance with bladder expression, but it’s a simple part of her daily care. She’s such a special girl, and we’d love to see her find a family of her own.

Poptart has been with us since she was just a kitten. After suffering from toxoplasmosis early in life, she was left with lasting neurological differences that affect her day-to-day life. Poptart may not do all the things a typical cat does, including using a litter box, but she’s truly one of a kind. She deserves someone who will embrace her exactly as she is.

Daisy came to us as a devoted mama when her kittens’ umbilical cords were wrapped, and she did an incredible job raising her babies. They all quickly found loving homes, but Daisy is still waiting for hers! She prefers having her space from other animals and would likely thrive as the only pet in a home where she can be the center of attention.

Grayson came to us when he was just a baby, and he’s been keeping us on our toes ever since! 😂 He’s an absolute riot, and you can often hear one of us calling out, “GRAYSON!” He’s a wild boy who loves to play and keep everyone entertained. Due to nerve damage from a leg fracture when he was a kitten, Grayson experiences incontinence and wears a diaper. He’s full of personality and has so much life to bring to the right home!

These four have been part of our lives for so long, and while we adore having them here, what we really want is for each of them to experience the comfort, security, and love of a forever home. ❤️

They may need families willing to think outside the box, but they have so much to offer in return. This National Cat Day, help us find the people who will see just how special they are!

HAPPY NATIONAL BLACK CAT DAY! 🐈‍⬛🖤

Black cats are often overlooked in shelter environments, but we think they’re just as magical, unique, and lovable as every other kitty!

Today, we’re celebrating our beautiful black cats and all the things that make them so special. From their gorgeous coats to their big personalities, these kitties deserve all the love and appreciation in the world. 🐾

Let’s see those voids! 👀🖤 Drop a picture of your black kitties in the comments and show them some love! We can’t wait to see all your little shadows. 💕

Meet Hyatt! 🤍

This senior lady has a BIG personality and plenty to say! After her beloved owner had to move into a nursing home, Hyatt found herself at Chicago Animal Care and Control. When she was deadlined, April’s Kittens stepped in to give her the second chance she deserved. ❤️

Hyatt is a spicy girl who knows what she likes and isn’t afraid to tell you! She’s looking for an adult-only home where she can be the one and only queen of the castle - no other pets, just all the love and attention for her.

Could you be the one to give this sassy senior her happily ever after? Come meet Hyatt at April’s Kittens! 💖

It was time for Mittens to get some new adoption profile photos since she’s outgrown her old ones. 💔 Looking back at her first photos from when she arrived at April’s Kittens on June 1st, it’s hard to believe how tiny she was. Now, she’s basically grown up here with us, and honestly, that makes us a little sad. 🥺

She may be one brown tabby among many, and she takes a little time to warm up to new people, but she deserves a family who will be patient and let her blossom at her own pace. ❤️

Mittens has spent enough of her kittenhood growing up at the rescue. Let’s find this girl the forever home she deserves! 🤍
