Holly's Story
Introducing Holly, a beautiful tabby eager to find her forever home. Holly is a curious kitty who loves to lounge in sunny windows to watch outdoor wildlife. She’s a smart, independent girl who will let you know what she wants and when she wants it, whether it’s to engage in a wand-toy play session, to get some loving affection, or to enjoy a delicious meal or Churu snack.
Are you Holly’s new family? If you are an experienced cat owner who has a quiet, adults-only home without pets, then you just might be!
Unsure about adoption? Try our Foster First program. With support from PAWS, including medical, behavioral and food resources, you can spend a few weeks getting to know — and falling in love— with this sweet girl before officially adopting. To get started, pleaser reach out to acfoster@pawschicago.org.
Meet Holly
Holly can’t wait to meet you!
If you’re interested in adopting this pet, there are few steps you must complete before scheduling an appointment at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center:
1. Please start by taking our ComPETibility Quiz to make sure they’re a good fit for your home. Your ComPETibility Score will help you compare your home to their needs!
2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.
3. Finally, schedule an appointment at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center! During your appointment, you’ll be able to meet all currently adoptable animals at our Lincoln Park Adoption Center and walk through the adoption process with our staff and volunteers. Appointments are not required but encouraged for a more efficient visit.
Please note that while we can’t place holds on adoptable animals for your scheduled appointment, there are always plenty of homeless pets looking for a home! If you don’t meet the perfect pet during your first visit to the Adoption Center, please feel free to schedule another appointment.

Why Adopt?
Adoption is one of the best ways to save a life. Only a few thousand more adoptions each year in Chicago, a city of millions of people, and we will be a No Kill community! You can make a real difference.
At PAWS Chicago, we keep working to grow our operations to save more homeless pets. It's how we've gone from saving a few dozen to 6,000 pets a year. But it is our adopters who make the real magic happen by bringing these loving pets home. Adopt a pet and spread the word!

Our foster families enable us to take in more pets at risk. Some require a quiet place to heal from illness or injury; small puppies and kittens need a nurturing place to grow before they are able to be spayed or neutered and adopted; and others just need socialization and a break from the activity of Adoption Center living. Become a foster parent and help homeless pets in need!
