Harmony House for Cats

...a cageless, no-kill shelter

Bookmark and Share

 

Animal Protective Association's Harmony House for Cats is a cageless no-kill shelter dedicated to rescuing and placing injured and abandoned cats.

 

Opened in July 2012, Harmony House's new cageless no-kill adoption center showcases our cats and kittens in Chicago's greenest shelter. The design is organized around a central landscaped courtyard for day-lighting and access for all shelter users, visually and physically, to nature. Cats in every room of the shelter enjoy natural light and look out at the trees and flowers surrounding the building.

 

While our name was chosen to reflect the way our cats live together, it also reflects how Harmony House as an organization rests on the Earth—in Harmony with Nature.

CURRENT EVENTS

 

Sunday, October 6th, is our Walk for Cats. Because of our extra guests and activities, adoption interviews will not be conducted that day. Please visit Harmony House on another adoption day that week if you wish to adopt a cat or kitten.
Thank you for your understanding.

Help us pay our summer vet bills!
Harmony House AlbeeSummer is a time for vacations, block parties, festivals, baseball, and lots of fun activities. Here at Harmony House, summer is also the season where our vet bills skyrocket, but our donations dip the lowest for the year. With litters of kittens and injured cats needing special care at our shelter, we have a backlog of $8500 in vet bills to pay. Visit our Donations page to contribute via PayPal or Network for Good, or checks can be mailed to Harmony House, PO Box 18098, Chicago, IL 60618.
Thank you for helping care for our cats and kittens!
