With his flame-colored long coat and brilliant blue eyes, Ilya is as handsome as he is hardworking. This adult kitty knows exactly who he is—an independent, self-sufficient working cat looking for a place where his instincts can shine. Naturally motivated, Ilya's happiest when he has a task to do. Whether he's patrolling a barn, warehouse, stable or workshop, his presence helps discourage rodents without the need for harsh chemicals or traps. Beyond pest control, farm animals and people alike can appreciate having this guardian keeping watch while going about daily rounds. In return for fresh food, clean water, safe shelter and routine care, Ilya will provide reliable, eco-friendly rodent control while enjoying the outdoor lifestyle that suits him best.
