Firebolt's Story

Meet Firebolt, a tiny but mighty white and black older kitten who was left behind in an abandoned apartment. Nobody knows how long he waited alone, but Saint Sophia's rescue team gave him a second chance at life after he ended up at Chicago Animal Care and Control. Despite being a bit shy, Firebolt has a playful spirit and a heart of gold. When he feels comfortable, he'll come to you for attention and snuggles. He's adaptable and can get along with other cats, although he might need a few days to adjust. Firebolt loves toys and perks up at the sound of a can of food popping open – it's music to his ears! Like all kitties, he craves love and attention, and he's especially fond of petting. If he sees you petting another kitty, he'll hurry over to join in on the fun. This little ball of fluff is looking for a forever home where he can receive the love and attention he deserves. If you have a soft spot for shy but playful kitties, Firebolt might be the perfect companion for you. Will you give him a chance to brighten up your life?<br/><br/>Adoption Information<br/><br/>Prior to adoption, every cat in our care is spayed or neutered, microchipped, given age-appropriate vaccinations, treated for parasites, and combo-tested for FIV/FeLV. We make sure each cat is healthy, safe, and ready to thrive in their forever home.<br/><br/>Adoption Fees<br/><br/><br/> <br/> Kittens (under 6 months): $150<br/> <br/> <br/> Adults (over 6 months): $125<br/> <br/> <br/> Seniors / Special Needs: $75<br/> <br/><br/><br/>Please Note:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> We cannot hold cats for any reason.

St. Sophia's Forgotten Felines's Adoption Policy
TO ADOPT, ONE MUST Have current photo identification with your current address Be willing and able to spend the time & money needed to care for your cat Carefully read the terms of our Adoption Contract and agree to its terms. Agree that if they cannot keep the cat they have adopted from St. Sophia’s, they must return the cat to us Agree to allow an authorized representative of St. Sophia’s to make an adoption follow-up THE PROCESS Adopting should never be an impulse decision — pets are for life. We respectfully ask that you come fully prepared to take on the care of a cat prior to filling out an application. On average, owning a cat costs $40 a month (food/litter/health), which is $480 annually. Cats (especially kittens) take lots of time, dedication, and love to grow and develop into loving and healthy household pets. Because we at St. Sophia’s pride ourselves in knowing our cats, we want what’s best for them, and to ensure they are going to good homes we conduct reference checks (personal and veterinary) in addition to the basic application. Please expect the adoption process to take at least 24 hours, and when your adoption is finalized, you’ll need to bring a carrier to take your new pet home in.
