Meet Barley the Cat!

BREED: Domestic Long Haired cat
AGE: 10-11 months
SEX: Male
BIO: Hello! Looking for an adorable, little black cat to make your home a whole lot cozier this fall? You are definitely looking for me! After all, how many other cats get the star treatment with a dog rescue!?! I am a long-haired domestic kitty, about 10–11 months old. With my soft, fluffy black coat and big golden eyes, I’m as handsome as I am sweet I was found as a stray by one of CDR’s phenomenal foster moms while she was on her way to work in Palatine. The CDR vet thinks I may have spent my whole young life on the streets, so my foster home might be the first warm, safe place I’ve ever known. You’d never guess it, though. I am sweet as pie, love belly rubs, playing with you while lying on my back, and have the cutest curious stare of a young kitty still figuring out the world. Since I was an outdoor cat, I’m still working on my litter box habits, so I’d do best with a patient adopter who’s happy to help me finish learning the ropes. And speaking of outdoor cats, CDR is looking for a home where I will be an indoor cat only. No options for outdoor roaming for me! Now…if you want to build me a catio…I wouldn’t object! I am cat-friendly, dog-friendly, kid-friendly, people-friendly…let’s just say all-around FRIENDLY! And, with a long life ahead of me, I’m ready to be someone’s fantastic furry friend. My favorite things are curling up next to you on the couch and snuggling with you in bed. The only spooky thing about this black cat is how fast I’ll steal your heart! If you would like to meet me, please fill out a pre-adoption application, and a CDR volunteer will get back to you just as quickly as they can!

Chicagoland Dog Rescue Dogs

Our trained volunteers will determine which home among all applicants is the best fit for the dog, and the dog will be brought back to complete the adoption paperwork.  Our adoption fee is $400 for adult dogs 7 months and up, $300 for senior dogs, and $525 for puppies. ($700-$800 for bonded pairs.) The fee covers the cost of all medical care including all legally required inoculations, a fecal test and deworming (if required), spaying or neutering, and a microchip. Lifetime training is also included.

***** All breeds listed are a best guess or based on information from our rescue partners and are not guaranteed*****

All our dogs have all legally required preventative inoculations, are microchipped and are spayed or neutered to control the repetitive birth cycle that produces more unwanted dogs. Most have been rescued from kill shelters in the Midwest, so their exact breed and age is often unknown. All dogs have been medically or emotionally rehabilitated as needed and are temperament tested to assess their fit with other dogs, cats and children.

Chicagoland Dog Rescue reserves the right to restrict adoption of a dog to potential adopters who live within a fifty (50) mile radius of Schaumburg, IL

Weekly socialization and basic obedience training is offered to all adopters FREE OF CHARGE for the lifetime of the dog, something no other group offers!  Training is crucial for happy dogs and ensures that our adopted dogs remain in their happy households forever.  A minimum of 4 training sessions is required for all adopted dogs.

Details on our training program can be found here.
