Patch Pets: Big Red

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

BIG RED is a very friendly and outgoing 3 1/2 year old kitty.  He enjoys greeting all of the visitors who come into the Cat Room at Heartland.  This big orange boy with white paws loves to play with catnip toys as well as socialize with all of the great Heartland volunteers. He would love to meet you very soon!

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.

Heartland Animal Shelter, at 2975 Milwaukee Ave., 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.
