Springfield, IL (CAPITOL CITY NOW) – This handsome bloke is called Chumley. He is a one-year-old tabby charmer who arrived as an unchipped stray on May 26.

Chumley is friendly and affectionate, but is still learning to play. We’re not sure he had ever seen a toy before arriving at SCAC. He was uncertain about a kicker toy and a stuffed mouse, but after thorough review, he decided to accept a catnip pillow. Chumley deserves a forever family who will love and spoil him with plenty of catnip pillows. He is ready to go home with you – neutered, microchipped, vaccinated appropriate to age, and negative for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). Chumley’s adoption fee is currently discounted by the county to just $35!
