Famous Fido Rescue and Adoption Alliance

7 months ago

This is a lovingly great place, run by nice people. To be clear: it's a cat shelter. While the organization does involve dog rescue, the physical brick & mortar location on Irving Park is 100% about cats. And, ironically, I'm allergic to cats. Which is why I went there. I've been receiving allergy shots for the past year, specifically targeting my cat allergy. So when the time came to see if the treatment was having an effect, I went to famous fido, explained my situation to the lady at the desk, and was given the opportunity to interact with a cat family. Family... that's what really impressed me about this place. There are no individual cages. Instead, cats are housed together in groups which are known to get along, in large rooms which have space for the cats, a space for the humans, and a space for the cats and the humans to interact. It struck me as a very low-stress environment for the animals, and allows you (the human) to enter their environment in a way which puts you off to the side and allows the cats to explore you at their convenience. I spent about an hour with three orange-and-white shorthair brothers, all of whom eventually found their way into my lap as I sat in the comfy stuffed chair at the corner of the room. We got along rather well. Alas, the experience confirmed that I am, in fact, still allergic to cats. Benadryl was consumed the instant I left. But I'm grateful to the folks here for allowing me the experience, knowing up-front that I was not looking to make an adoption that day.

I would highly recommend Famous Fido Rescue. There was a feral cat in my neighborhood that was not going to survive another day in the bitter Chicago winter. I called and spoke to Gloria, she immediately got me in contact with an associate who came and picked the cat up within 30 minutes. He was given urgent medical care and will be placed in a forever home after he is medically stable. I am very grateful for Gloria and her associate, whom I refer to as an angel who came to assist the cat in need. If you are in need of a great no kill shelter, I highly recommend Gloria and her associates at Famous Fido Rescue. Thank you both again for your help!
