About Shannon

Shannon is a charming 5-month-old brown tabby who found her way to us from a shelter in downstate Illinois. When she arrived, we discovered some nerve damage in her front right paw, but it doesn’t hinder this darling girl one bit. Shannon doesn’t realize she’s any different from other kittens; we want her future family to see her as the loving, playful companion she truly is. Initially, she may be a bit reserved, understandably so after all the changes in her young life. However, pick her up and shower her with affection, and her purr machine kicks right in! Sweet and gentle, Shannon’s ready to embark on her next adventure—finding a forever home where she can share all the love she has to offer. Shannon has received all her routine vaccinations, is litter box trained, spayed, and microchipped. She's eagerly waiting for someone to recognize what a remarkable little lady she is. Ready to make her part of your family?
