Springfield, IL (CAPITOL CITY NOW) – Sangamon County Animal Control & Adoption Center is still overflowing with kittens, including this lovely and fun tabby with white little girl, Yvonne.

She is a playful and affectionate baby, approximately 6 months old, who arrived as a young stray on August 27. Yvonne is ready to go home with you – spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated appropriate to age. Remember – kittens are always better in pairs! Yvonne will adapt much more easily to her new home and new family if you also adopt another kitten around her age. There are currently plenty to choose from!
