Orelia's Story

Breed: British Shorthair Age: 3.5 months old Adoption Fee: $550.00 Intake Date: 3/23/2025 ***Orelia is considered Foster-to-Adopt until fully vetted*** This kitty is coming all the way from Kuwait and will arrive on Sunday, March 23, 2025, with pickup on the same day. While we are in communication with the rescuers, we won’t fully know their personalities until they settle in. However, most of these cats adjust well to new environments and get along with other cats and dogs. Please Note: Foster-to-adopt homes must be within 30 miles of Lemont and use one of our partnered vets. We do not adopt out of state until the cat is fully vetted. We process applications in the order in which they are received. Please only apply if you are ready to welcome a new companion into your home upon approval. We often get asked why we help cats from Kuwait. Unfortunately, there are no animal welfare laws or vetting requirements there, leading to widespread neglect. Many cats are abandoned with little chance of survival. To learn more, visit https://kittylovekuwait.org/background. Adoption Fee: $550.00 Includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccines, SNAP test, dewormer, flea/tick prevention, general wellness care, and the pet’s travel ticket. Interested? Submit an adoption application at www.rubywhiskers.org/adopt. Be sure to select "Kuwait Cat/Kitten" on the application and upload a photo of the available cat.
