This 2-year-old guy is very nice and lovable. He loves to be held and cuddled.

Babble is a lanky, happy fellow. He loves toys, pets and exploring. He purrs like crazy when it’s petting time and will bat a toy around when he wants you to play with him.

He’s really independent and incredibly relaxed – he lets his fosterer cut his nails without any fuss at all.

He’s been introduced to the resident cats and while none of them are quite friends yet (he’s only been out of quarantine for a couple of days) he doesn’t seem like he’s going to start any trouble with them.

Babble had a broken hip but it has healed quite nicely He occasionally has a small limp and doesn’t seem to have any interest in jumping on anything higher than the bed/sofa, but that could just be that he’s still acclimating.

Hyde Park Cats is a local, all-volunteer group dedicated to helping stray and homeless cats in and around Chicago’s Hyde Park. We received our 501(c)(3) status in 2014 and have had over 1,200 adoptions since our founding in 2008. See all our adoptable kitties on our webpage: http://hydeparkcats.org/adopt/

All of our cats are in loving foster homes, which means the cat you adopt will be familiar with the sounds, smells, and movements of life in a home and accustomed to living with humans. He or she has been interacting on a daily basis with people who know this particular cat intimately, and the foster mom or dad can tell you all about the cat’s individual personality, habits, preferences. You can’t judge a cat by its cover! And while we can’t predict the future or know everything about a cat, we can help you choose the cat who is right for you. We have an adoption application and an adoption fee, $125 for the adoption of one cat, or $250 for a pair. This fee goes towards covering their vet costs. All cats adopted out by us are neutered/spayed, micro-chipped, tested for FIV/FeLV, and treated with Revolution.
