About Oso

Oso has overcome some major challenges to arrive at this point. Born on May 30, 2024, she endured a harsh winter outdoors, which led to frostbite on her ears. After facing such adversity, she gave birth to five kittens, nurturing all of them with dedication until they were ready to find their own homes. Now, it's her time to shine. Oso craves attention and affection, often making her needs known with charming persistence. Her sweet personality makes it clear that she's ready for a loving home where she can soak up the love she missed while fending for herself outside. This brave and affectionate mama cat is waiting for her forever family to come along. If you're interested in meeting Oso, please reach out to Humane Haven Animal Shelter at 630-378-4208 for more details or to schedule an appointment. She's spayed, microchipped, tested, and fully vaccinated. Just imagine all the purring and cuddling waiting for you!
