Muffin's Story

Meet Muffin! Muffin is described by her foster as a cat who "likes to know what's going on! Whenever I move rooms in my house, she'll saunter in like she just HAPPENED to be going there anyway." When she's not playing chess, doing the dishes, reading about dinosaurs, or trying to eat a Costco box, she's a homebody who will nap the day away. Until it's dinnertime, of course, at which point the entire household will hear her call for the chef's special. At a gorgeous 19.4 pounds of love, Muffin handles new people and pets like a jump into a cold pool on a hot summer day - barely tolerated at first, then pure joy.

Muffin has been diagnosed with arthritis. Good news is that with the help of daily medication, she is an active cat with a big personality who would love to spend her days following you around the house!

Are you Muffin's new family? You might be if you are an experienced cat owner who is looking to give this esteemed lady the time and patience she needs to warm up and be your new best friend.

Meet Muffin

Muffin 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.

Want another way to spend time with our adoptable (or soon-to-be-adoptable) pets? Consider fostering.
