My story

I BECOME AVAILABLE AT THE ANGEL WITH TAILS ADOPTION EVENT in Winnetka 8/23/25 Artie is very playful, always chasing the same toys his siblings find interest in and exploring around the house. He likes to wrestle with his siblings and chase around worms on a string, along with string toys. Artie is a big cuddle bug. He purrs as soon as you pet him and likes sleeping next to you if you sit down on the couch to work for a while. If he's asleep, sometimes you can pick him up in the same position and he'll remain asleep. Artie’s also proven himself to be a gentleman around adult and senior cats, never aggressive, simply curious, and friendly (though he might not resist batting at a tail if the opportunity presents itself). Around children, he’s just as good-natured, soaking up attention and tolerating being carried or cuddled, even by younger kids. Because he’s so playful and sociable, Artie will need a young feline friend in his forever home whether that’s with one of his siblings, Clover, Diamond, Queen, or another playful resident cat. He's especially fond of Clover. He’d be happiest in a home with people around during the day to keep him company, join him in his games, and let him snuggle once his exuberant energy has worn down. Artie is the kind of cat who steals the spotlight without even trying. He’s social, curious, endlessly entertaining, and has a knack for making every day feel brighter. With his big, intelligent eyes, you’d think he’s plotting something clever… but then he tries to “catch” the computer mouse on your screen, and you realize he’s more of a slapstick comedian than mastermind. If you’re on your phone, expect a few random taps as he’s been known to pause videos, like and dislike them a dozen times, and even change what you’re watching. Artie doesn’t just live in your home he interacts with your electronics like a mischievous little roommate. Playtime, though, is where his silly personality shines. He wrestles with his siblings, chases toys across the floor, and always wants in on whatever game another cat is playing. His favorite activities include zooming through the house, playing with string toys, and inspecting anything new in his environment. He’s bold enough to explore on his own but also happy to team up with his buddies. But behind the antics is a total sweetheart. Artie loves to cuddle and will purr the moment you touch him. You can scoop him up and carry him around, and he’ll happily stay in your arms, sometimes even asleep the whole time. Sit down to work, and he’ll curl beside you. Stretch out for a nap, and he’s likely to join you. He’s a velcro kitty in the absolute best way.  Artie is equal parts entertainer and lovable young man  who will keep you laughing with his antics, warm your heart with his cuddles, and maybe even “help” you pick your next Netflix binge. If you’ve been searching for a companion with both brains (okay, some brains) and boundless charm then Artie could be the one for you. If you would like to meet Artie, please apply at the link below. WE DO NOT HAVE A PHYSICAL LOCATION AS WE ARE A FOSTER-BASED ORGANIZATION.  PLEASE SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A SCREENER.
