Meet Adelle The Cat: From Adorable To Zaftig

Each week, we feature pets available for adoption from C.A.R.E. at Evanston's Animal Shelter.

Adelle is a curvy girl who has a generally happy and calm attitude toward life. A calico with a most unusual mustache, Adelle loves investigating new places and being held.

Since she tends toward the "Zaftig" side of the weight scale (she weighs about 15 lbs.), Adelle needs someone who can help her exercise more and eat a little more sensibly.

Still, Adelle enjoys playing with wand toys when they're close enough for her to  swat without moving too much. Adelle is definitely a cat who believes in putting out the minimum effort for exercise.

  • ASPCA Feline-ality™ Assessment rating:  Purple / Secret Admirer
