About Marlion

Meet Marlion! This incredibly friendly senior cat is a true love bug. He joined Heartland from Chicago Animal Care and Control after being surrendered. Since arriving, he's shown his delightful personality while staying in a welcoming foster home. Marlion is so easygoing that he requires minimal settling in time—he quickly explores, plays, and craves affection. He uses his litter box like a champ and is great with kids and other pets, making him an ideal companion. Marlion is neutered and up-to-date on his FVRCP and Rabies vaccines, plus he's FIV negative. However, he did test positive for feline leukemia, which means he should ideally live with other cats who are also positive. Please reach out to the Heartland Team for more details on his condition. Marlion is waiting for a loving home, and you can set up a time to meet him by emailing cats@heartlandanimalshelter.org. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
