1. Bitty
Want someone who’s genuinely thrilled every single time you come home? Bitty has you covered!
The moment you open the door, Bitty will come looking for you, ready to welcome you home. From there, expect to have a little shadow following you around the house. He’s incredibly affectionate and loves being near his people, but he’s also perfectly capable of doing his own thing—making him a great combination of cuddly and independent.
Read more about Bitty
Bitty is also very friendly with other animals. His only problem? He firmly believes that everyone must love him. Sometimes he’s still figuring out that his animal friends may not appreciate quite as much togetherness as he does! He’s only about a year old, though, and he’s still learning those personal-space boundaries.
Sweet, social, young, and full of love, Bitty would be a wonderful companion for someone who wants an affectionate little buddy without needing a cat permanently attached to their lap.

2. Jazz
Jazz is a sweet, social girl who desperately wants to be your friend—she’s just still figuring out how to be brave enough to do it!
Jazz absolutely loves other cats and comes running when her foster humans walk through the door. She wants to be wherever the people are and will hang out as close to them as she can. There’s just one catch: as much as Jazz loves people, she’s still scared of being touched.
Read more about Jazz
That certainly doesn’t stop her from trying, though! Jazz plays with toys with her foster humans, comes yelling for them when they get home, and has even gotten brave enough to give them a quick little poke with her nose before running away. Every small interaction is another step toward learning that people can be safe.
Jazz hasn’t had much experience with humans, and even in her short time in foster care, she has already made wonderful progress. She’ll need a patient adopter who is willing to let her build trust at her own pace rather than expecting her to become a cuddly cat overnight.
Because she absolutely adores other cats, Jazz would make a wonderful companion for another kitty. A confident feline friend may even help show her that these strange human creatures aren’t so scary after all!

3. Harry
Do you ever feel like you have a little too much personal space? Harry can fix that for you!
Harry is a big love bug who wants nothing more than to be in direct contact with his people. In your lap? Absolutely. Lying on your belly? Even better. Pressed against your arm because being three inches away is simply unacceptable? Obviously.
Read more about Harry
Harry can seem a little nervous when he first meets someone, but all it takes is one pet and suddenly you’re his best friend. Once he decides you’re safe, prepare to have a very affectionate little shadow. Harry also loves other animals and enjoys their company, although, thankfully for them, he understands their personal space a little better than he understands ours!
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who believes cuddling should be a full-contact sport, Harry might be your guy

17. Gianna
Meet Gianna – A Beautiful, Shy Girl with a Gentle Heart!
With her gorgeous dilute tortoiseshell coat, striking green eyes, and delicate features, Gianna is a beautiful little lady who prefers to appreciate life from a safe and comfortable distance—at least until she gets to know you!
Gianna is a very shy girl, and she's not the kind of cat who will rush over to greet strangers or demand attention. She prefers to take her time, observe her surroundings, and decide for herself when it's safe to venture out. But behind that cautious exterior is a sweet, sensitive soul who deserves a loving home where she can finally feel secure.
Read more about Gianna
Gianna has a few favorite things that make her world a happy place. Canned food is definitely near the top of the list! A delicious meal is always appreciated and may be one of the best ways to begin earning her trust.
She also absolutely loves her cat tree! Having a comfortable perch where she can relax, feel safe, and watch the world go by is very important to her. And if that cat tree happens to be near a window, even better! Gianna enjoys watching birds and can spend plenty of time quietly observing all the fascinating activity outside.
When it comes to other cats, Gianna is perfectly comfortable sharing her space. She gets along fine with feline companions and could do well in a home with other calm, respectful cats.
What Gianna needs most is a patient, understanding person who doesn't expect instant affection. Someone who will give her the space to settle in, establish a routine, and gradually learn that her new home is a safe place.
She's a wonderful match for someone who appreciates quieter cats and understands that building a relationship with a shy kitty can take time. Every little step forward, every moment of growing confidence, can become something truly special.
If you have a peaceful home, a comfortable cat tree by the window, and a heart big enough to give a shy little girl the time she needs, Gianna would love the chance to become part of your family.
Sometimes the most beautiful friendships begin quietly!

18. Denny
Meet Denny – A Beautiful Girl with a Shy but Sweet Heart!
Some cats are born to steal the spotlight, while others prefer to quietly capture your heart. Denny is definitely the second kind!
Denny is an absolutely gorgeous girl with a luxurious black-and-white coat, beautiful green eyes, and a face that is even more stunning in person than her photographs can capture. She's a real beauty, although she's far too modest to know it!
Read more about Denny
But Denny isn't just a pretty face. She's a gentle, sensitive girl who happens to be quite shy around people. She's not one to rush forward demanding attention, and she prefers to observe the world from a safe, comfortable spot until she feels confident enough to venture out.
There is, however, one thing that can make Denny forget some of her reservations—canned food! This lovely lady has a healthy appreciation for a delicious meal, and food may well be the secret to winning her trust.
Denny also gets along fine with other cats. She's comfortable sharing her space with feline companions, which could make a home with other calm, friendly cats a good fit for her.
What Denny needs most is a patient, understanding person who will appreciate her for who she is. Someone who won't expect instant affection or rush her into interactions, but will give her the freedom to settle in, feel secure, and build trust at her own pace.
Watching a shy cat gradually become comfortable is a special kind of reward, and Denny deserves someone willing to give her that opportunity.
If you have a peaceful home, a patient heart, and a soft spot for beautiful, sensitive cats, Denny might be the girl you've been waiting for.
She may not fall in love with you on the first day, but with time, kindness, and perhaps a little canned food, a beautiful friendship could begin!

And when it's time for dinner? Well, that's an entirely different story! Benny absolutely loves her canned food! A delicious meal is definitely one of the quickest ways to earn her appreciation.

A nice tall cat tree in her forever home would certainly earn you extra points!
When it comes to other cats, Fuzzy Tail is wonderfully easygoing. She gets along just fine with her feline roommates, although she doesn't seem particularly interested in making them the center of her world. She's perfectly content to share her space with other cats while focusing most of her affection on her humans.
That makes her a lovely candidate for either a home with other friendly, respectful cats or a home where she can enjoy being the center of attention.
With her sweet personality, affectionate nature, and charmingly fluffy appearance, Fuzzy Tail has all the makings of a wonderful companion.
If you've been dreaming of a friendly little sweetheart who loves cuddles, appreciates a good cat tree, and will happily make herself at home in your heart, Fuzzy Tail is waiting to meet you!

How to adopt from 4 Paw Luv Rescue NFP
1. We interview the potential adopters using our standard application with trained adoption counselors against our standard policies. Adopters must be able to provide sufficient housing, food, water and medical care for the animal. The home must also be a good fit for both the family and the animal being adopted. Counselors are trained to be able to look for good housing matches based on the personality of the animal to increase the chance of a successful adoption. 2. If the adopters seem like a good match and are capable of caring for an animal then we have them sign our standard contract. Our contract states that the adopters will care for the animal as per Illinois law. If they cannot keep the animal for any reason, they must contact us for return of the animal. The animal will be kept indoors. These are a few of the key points in the contract. 3. The adopters provide us with the adoption fee of $100 (unless it is a special situation in which case the adoption counselor has the ability to adjust the fee) which is the same for all cats, including kittens. 4. Adoptions are usually done same day and the adopters take their new family member home.

Adopting a cat in Limestone
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
