West Suburban Humane Society

The West Suburban Humane Society (WSHS) is a volunteer based, animal welfare organization that was founded in 1972 as a lost and found referral service. We provide housing for up to 25 dogs and 60 cats at a time. We operate at full capacity at all times with animal care and adoptions being provided by 3 full-time and 6 part-time employees and numerous volunteers. Our facility is open to the public 6 days a week. We continue to reunite lost animals and their owners by maintaining a database with information on over 33,000 pets and their owners, and by providing free pet identification tags to all pet owners.

I’m a lucky girl.  I am two years old, and got to move from my cage into one of the offices in the main building.  I’m happier now that I get to move around whenever I want.  I’m a beautiful young cat and I’d really love a home of my own and people to love. I need someone with patience and understanding that I might not trust right away.  If you’d like to see me, please mention me by name and you can come into the office and have a look at me.

I’m one cool dude! I am one year old, and really love it when I get to swat at balls, fake mice and other kitty toys! I also enjoy being scratched on my chin and some quiet, lap time.  Orange you ready to share your life with me?!

I started my life as an outdoor kitten, relying on the goodness of people to survive.  My brother and I made it and were found to be tame, despite our beginning. He has been adopted and now I wait for my turn. I am lovable and quiet, sweet-tempered and silky soft. I would love to live with at least one more kitty in my forever home, and I wouldn't mind a dog, really. Don't dismiss me because of my color and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
