My story

Rhubarb (about 6 months old as of 9/19/2025) is a spayed female brown tabby shorthaired kitten. Rhubarb was born on 3.14 or "Pi Day" to a friendly stray cat 2 days after she was brought into Waukegan Animal Control who saw she was very pregnant and got her settled into a foster home. Rhubarb's mom and siblings have all since been adopted except for her sister Cherry, her best friend in the whole world! The two of them love to cuddle each other, work together to smother their humans with their cuddles, and chase each other around wrestling like absolute maniacs. They're both very chatty and social if a little shy at first with new people or new places. At home they are super playful and like almost any cat toys, especially anything dangly! Rhubarb is especially food motivated, she likes to growl while she eats and if anyone doesn't heed her warning and approaches her food she won't just be a funny grumpy face, she'll take a swipe at them! Most of the time though they get along well with other cats and would make great little sisters, though their kitten antics might be a bit much for a senior cat used to peace and quiet. They haven't lived with dogs but have spent a lot of time at the pet store and are young enough that given a slow introduction a calm, cat friendly dog might work for them. They would be endless entertainment for kids but might do better with older kids that can give them a little space as they get to know each other. kp

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rhubarb, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
