Cat Water Fountain w/2 filters (NE Downers Grove)
This ceramic fountain keeps water flowing and encourages cats to drink because they can see and hear moving water. It works but my fussy cat (who loved it for years) has decided he prefers drinking out of human cups. He no longer knocks them over (this is too heavy to tip). Only 2 downsides to this gadget: you need to periodically buy new filters and it takes time to clean it properly (some parts go in dishwasher but not the motor obviously or filter) and occasionally needs descaling with citric acid powder and a sponge (I’ll give you a baggie of the powder too). If you have an older cat, one with bladder stones, or you just want to spoil your cat, it’s great. Comes with 2 unopened filters and has been thoroughly cleaned. NE Downers Grove Porch pickup.

12" x 24" color cardstock paper (Big Timber & Randall Rd, Elgin)
I have a 12" x 24" cardstock pad that was originally for the Cricut Essentials1 cutting machine, but can be used for anything that uses cardstock. A school might like this pad of papers. It is all in great shape except the cover & 1 corner is bent a little because how it was stored.
