About Wally

Wally is ready to show you that black cats can bring immense joy and love. Rescued from an alley in Chicago, he has transformed from a stray into a foster cat who thrives on affection and warmth. This big boy, weighing over 13 pounds, prefers lounging on the floor or in his cattasaurus rather than climbing to high places. While he enjoys being petted and scratched, he still has some reservations about being held, especially if you're standing. With excellent litter box habits and a hearty appetite, Wally is a fantastic companion for anyone wanting a friendly feline. He's neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Adoption is just an application away! If you're interested in meeting Wally, submitting an application will get you started on this path. Wally is waiting for someone who appreciates his gentle spirit and unique personality. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
