Brian McKnight is a calm, cool and collected senior guy at 11 years old. He doesn’t require you to sing love songs to win his heart, he just enjoys peace and quiet while watching the birds outside his window. Brian does well with other cats, but he pretty much sticks to himself. If you’re looking for an easy to please gorgeous cat, Brian McKnight is your guy. PAWS Tinley Park

Hailey has been adopted and returned twice and has been in and out of the shelter since she was a kitten and she is still truly just a giant sweetheart. Hailey gets along with other cats and is currently residing in a cageless room with 10 other cats. She is tired of her bad luck and can’t wait to find her forever people. PAWS Tinley Park / courtesy

Loki was adopted in 2019 and returned this year, and was discovered to be heartworm positive. He has now completed his treatment and is hoping to find his new home. Loki sometimes gets too excited and forgets his doggy manners so he would do best in a kid free home where he doesn’t need to share his toys.PAWS Tinley Park / courtesy

Titus is a good boy who loves play and pets but also needs someone who is willing to work on training and is willing to offer him leadership and structure. Titus would be happy to run your house if you let him, but he is just as happy to be a good boy if you don’t. Someone with Shepherd or working breed experience is preferred, but someone who values training is a must. No kids under 18. PAWS Tinley Park / courtesy
