Meet an unusual family of kittehs. Belle, top photo right, is the bio-mom of Holly, her mini-me. These beautiful stripey girls were turned into Animal Welfare League. The shelter manager then introduced Molly, a little gray kitten who was all alone, and wonderful Belle adopted her too! These kitties had been in the shelter for a couple months when we choose them for our adoption program — so the kittens basically spent their entire young kittenhoods in pokey. They’re still kittens, though, so they’re making up for lost time playing and playing and playing in Carol’s loving fosterhome. Mama Belle is a little shy of people, but clearly enjoys having her own space. To find out more about these kitties, please email hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com.

Meet Brian. This long, lean teenage kitten was found near Washington Park. He’s the brightest orange cat you’ve ever seen. Findermom says he’s “super” lovable. He digs snuggling, being held, sleeping in bed with people, and is just generally happy to be indoors after his rough kittenhood on the street. Brian uses the litterbox like a champ.

He is a gentle, people-loving cat with a medium energy level, so we expect that he would do well in a home with children.  He’s neutered, neg/neg, and super fun and interactive. He talks back when you say “Brrrrrrrrrian!” He’s assertive and bossy with dogs, and he’s a bro cat. He’d be in a cat frat if they existed. Email hydeparkcatsadoptions@gmail.com.

Brian is a bright orange teen/young adult male who was found on the west side of Washington Park. He loves people, particularly when they snuggle or hold him, and he’s assertive with dogs. He is neutered, neg/neg, fun and playful, and ready to light the menorah or decorate your tree with you, or whatever, as long as you snuggle and kiss him and maybe throw a toy his way …
