Biscuit is a sweet 8-year-old who likes to play with string toys. She does well with other cats. Since she’s shy around people, she needs a family who’s willing to be very patient and give her the time and space she needs to get used to her new home. She also needs a special diet for kidney support. She’s quiet and likes to be petted if you take it slow and easy. To meet Biscuit, contact Humane Haven Animal Shelter at hhas.org or 630-378-4208.
