The Chicago Feral Cat Meetup Group

"Hello christina. I hope that you are having a great day. Welcome.."

"Hello, my name is Eric. I love cats. I had a close relationship with a very special feline named Cyris. He would do the most interesting things. I would tell him that I loved him and he would tell me that he loved me back. "

"I am the woman you find in almost every neighborhood who takes in all the stray cats that come into her backyard. The need has become so great that I have formed a nonprofit corp., Stray Pals Society, which will be a no kill shelter for cats/dogs."

"Hi, I used to help maintain a colony in Humboldt Park before I moved to Uptown. "

"I'm a silly woman who has asthma, allergies and three big male, formerly outdoor cats. I have rescued a few other cats and gotten them adopted or into a no-kill shelter. My dream is do a TNR in my neighborhood to reduce the breeding strays."

"Its all about resources - with education, resources and networking we can solve the problem!"

"My wife and I have a feral colony in Deerfield. "

"New to chicago...have had cats all my life and looking to meet others who love cats and are interested in cat/pet rescue, etc."

"Live in the far N Burbs, close to the WI border. Have ran charity drives in my Meetups, one for Spay & Stay Lake Co. Found this Meetup on the Ally Cat Alies Website. Life long fan of the potato-chip cat (can't have just one)..."

"name's Talie, love animals to death. Gordon's my baby boy, he's a rescue and has been living with me for about a year now. I'm hoping that by volunteering my time and passion for them, that I can make a difference. Sounds cheesy, but I'm serious. :) "

"Hi! I'm a cat lover and have sucessfully brought 5 stray cats into my home. I would like to start helping ferral cats and learning how to TNR."

"Hi, I've been doing lots of animal rescue/rehab for over 25 years, hope to start my own sanctuary some day. Looking forward to connecting with others in the rescue community!"

"Hope to attend a meetup soon. "

"I work for a small animal welfare org in Chicago (NAVS) and would like more hands-on experience making a difference for animals."

"Animals are special! I want to help provide for the needs of animals and humans in order that they can live in harmony. A big dream, I realize, but one that I see coming true through the work of many individuals and organizations!"

"Hi! I'm Angelina and we have three young kitty boys, from the same litter. We trapped, neutered, and returned about 20 cats from the neighborhood colony last year and may try again this year. I love cats and would love to try to help them!"
