Cupcake

Cupcake is every bit as sweet and gentle as her name suggests—a tender-hearted girl with a shy charm and a whole lot of love waiting to be shared. She may seem a little reserved at first, but with patience and kindness, her walls begin to melt away—and what emerges is truly magical.<br/><br/>Once Cupcake feels safe, her playful side shines through with adorable zoomies, soft purrs, and even the occasional happy drool (yes, it’s as cute as it sounds!). She’s a quiet, loyal little shadow who doesn’t ask for much—just the comfort of being near her favorite people, often following them from room to room.<br/><br/>Though she’s still building confidence and isn’t quite a lap cat yet, Cupcake adores calm affection—gentle pets, belly rubs, and, of course, treats (her ultimate love language). Every small gesture of trust she offers feels like a precious gift.<br/><br/>Cupcake gets along well with other cats and would thrive in a calm, cat-savvy home—whether with a friendly feline friend or as your one-and-only. More than anything, she’s looking for a peaceful space and a kind soul who delights in watching a shy kitty blossom in her own time.<br/><br/>Almost Home's Adoption Requirements:<br/>Be at least 21 years of age<br/>Have the knowledge and consent of all adults living in the household<br/>Have approval from owner of residence (written in lease)<br/>Have a valid ID with current address<br/>Be approved as a suitable adoptive home by Almost Home Foundation<br/>Be ready to make a lifetime commitment<br/>Live in the suburbs surrounding Chicago (Illinois Residents only)<br/>Pass a veterinarian reference check for current and past pets.<br/>Adoption payment cash, check or Zelle only<br/><br/>If you are interested in Cupcake, please complete an online adoption application at www.almosthomefoundation.org or email cats@almosthomefoundation.org.<br/><br/>*** Please note that Almost Home Foundation accepts only cash, checks, or Zelle for adoption fees; we do not accept debit or credit cards. ***
