Saber is a 3-year-old tabby. He can be sweet and loving but sometimes plays too rough with the other cats. Saber would do best as the only cat in his forever home. Contact the Will County Humane Society at willcountyhumane.com and follow the instructions for the adoption process.

Blake is a 7 -year-old long-hair. She is gentle and sweet, and she loves attention, pets and scratches by her ears. She seems good with other cats.
