NAWS Adoptable Pet Of The Week: Calla Lilly

MOKENA, IL — For those looking to adopt a pet, a great place to look for your new family member is at NAWS Humane Society of Illinois. This week's 'Adoptable Pet' is Calla Lilly, who is available for adoption at the humane society.

Calla Lilly is a 4-year-old female tortie who was originally a barn cat who was abandoned by her previous owners. The society said she was rescued when she became pregnant and was a wonderful mama cat to her kittens and even nursed other orphan kittens.

Calla Lilly can be shy and tentative when meeting new people, but if you are patient, she will be your best friend, the society said. She is very affectionate and a great lap cat, she loves to lay on people and cuddle.

You can email Delonda at delonda@nawsus.org or call NAWS at 708-478-5102 with any questions or to meet her. All NAWS cats are spayed/neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on vaccines.

NAWS Humane Society of Illinois is located at 9981 W. 190th St., Suite A, in Mokena. The society is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday; 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday; and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday.
