Patch Pets: Hope

Each week, we feature cats and dogs available for adoption from Heartland Animal Shelter in Northbrook.

HOPE earned her name due to some not so nice things that were being done to her on the streets. She was rescued and brought to Heartland. Hope was born in June of 2011; she's a brown striped tabby that happens to be front-paw declawed. She's a gentle girl that likes to be petted and is hoping to find a kind and loving home.

Adoption Information- Heartland's Cat Adoption fee of $100 includes up-to-date vaccinations, spay/neuter, deworming, FIV/Feline Leukemia test, and a microchip.  Kitten adoption fees are slightly higher and reduced rates are often offered for special needs cats.

, at 2975 Milwaukee Avenue in Northbrook, is open from 4-7 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and 12-4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.  More animals available for adoption can be found at www.heartlandanimalshelter.net.
