Nathan is a handsome young cat that had a rough start in life.  He was born into a cat colony of more than 50 cats and bottlefed to supplement as a young kitten because his mother wasn't making enough milk. 

Nathan was taken in and after several months is all good to go and ready to find his forever home.

Nathan is only around six months old, but he weighs just over 8 lbs.  He is a big beautiful cat and very, very friendly. 

Nathan can be seen and adopted at Petsmart Mattoon.

Clay County Animal Rescue & Shelter is located at 375 Water Elm Lane, Flora, IL. Our phone number is 618-665-3005.  We are renovating our shelter so hours are by appointment only. 

The typical adoption fee for dogs is $150.  It includes vaccination, deworming , spay/neuter, heartworm testing on dogs of age and microchipping, which is now mandatory by state law.  Some dogs we discount to as little as $50 due to sponsorship.  Some dogs we ask a higher adoption fee, which helps us recoup expenses on heartworm treatment on other dogs.

All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/flea treated/dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption.  Cat adoption fees range from $60-$100.  We spay/neuter/microchip/vaccinate and deworm all kittens and cats, prior to adoption.  Our shyer/less adoptable cats are classed as "barn cats" and are free with a completed/approved barn cat application, which can be found on our website.
