    Nikey (little) & Jordan

    Urban mutt is the best! They have waited for me when I was running a few times. & if they didn't have the food I needed they gave me samples to get me through the night. THEY ARE AMAZING! & have gone above & beyond.. I know Jordan & Nikey appreciate them.

    Nice local pet store. Personal attention to help get my pup what she needs.

    Local store with great selection of toys, food, treats and harnesses. I really appreciate the individual attention to make sure I am buying what is best for my little one.

    If you're looking for fish imported and raised outside of the U.S., then head to a cleaner…read morecommercial pet store like Petsmart or Petco. Ray's pet shop is an absolute mess, however, his fish tanks and water quality are managed appropriately. He consistently has an awesome variety of fish, which he raises from spawn. Yes, as stated in one of the reviews, he sometimes keeps baby fish in a glass until they're ready to be transferred to a tank. Not sure why that's an issue.... Especially, if you know what the commercial breeders do. Ray is super knowledgeable about fish, and has helped me populate and manage a 30 gallon tank for well over a year. If you ask, he will make suggestions on safe fish pairings, proper food, and water maintenance advice. Bottom line, my fish from Ray actually live longer (unlike the poorly raised fish from commercial shops) because he raises them right and has set me up to maintain healthy fish. All of this talk about animal abuse is really quite comical considering how the commercial shops manage and take care of their animals. Maybe their isles are cleaner, but their fish tanks are not managed properly and their fish have been through a breeding ringer from Asia. Rays fish have been bred for years in local Lake Michigan water, which makes a big difference for the fish when transferring them to a home aquarium if you live in the area. I'll continue to support Ray. If you'd like a place that's cleaner and a similar quality to Ray's shop, go to Oak Park Natural Pet and Fish. I believe the owners were tied into Scott's Petshop in Westchester. The difference between Oak Park and Ray is the price and advice. I feel bad for those of you who judge a book by its cover and don't understand the difference in quality. Your loss.

    I have adopted from GCFA in the past, and am currently fostering an older ferret with medical…read moreissues as well as volunteering at the shelter on a weekly basis. I've scooped thousands of litter pans, scrubbed cages, conducted phone screenings for potential adopters, washed poopy laundry, and I am writing this review to clear up some of the complaints others have had, because those comments need to be taken into context and with a grain of salt (read: angry people shout the loudest). Yes, the shelter is selective and does not just hand out ferrets like candy. People who have no experience or knowledge of ferret-care are not going to walk out of the shelter with a ferret. That said, it only takes an hour or two of (online) research to learn pretty much everything you need to know as a new ferret owner. You don't need to buy a book or become an expert, but you do need to know what the warning signs of a sick ferret are, because they tend to mask illness and if you aren't somewhat knowledgeable, you might notice something is amiss too late. That said, if you walk into the shelter and are not knowledgeable, you can expect the staff to take some time educating you. That's for your benefit, as well as for the benefit of the woozles. Having gone through the adoption process (and the fostering process) myself, here's some info for anyone who wants to adopt a ferret from GCFA: First, you will go through a basic phone screening, then an in-person interview. To be eligible for adoption, you need to have basic ferret-care knowledge, as well as ferret-appropriate supplies (cage, food, toys, etc), and we will ask you what veterinarian you plan on going to (ferrets are considered exotic animals, and not all veterinarians treat exotics). Shelter staff can give vet recommendations, and often has extra cages and other ferret supplies on hand available in exchange for donations, but having that stuff in stock isn't guaranteed. Finally, ferret ownership can be expensive - they are wonderful pets, but they are also prone to various ailments as they get older, so it's important that new ferret owners are aware of the financial costs of ownership before adopting. GCFA is a volunteer-run, no-kill, non-profit, and serves as the source shelter for lost / abandoned ferrets in the Chicago area (meaning, nearly all ferrets that are brought into any shelter in the Chicago area will be transferred to GCFA). All donations go towards paying rent, buying ferret food and supplies, and paying for utilities. Some years, the shelter has barely scraped by. But because GCFA exists, thousands of ferrets that would otherwise be euthanized at other shelters have been placed in good homes with good people. It's true that many people who volunteer here are simply better with animals than with people. No one and no shelter is perfect. I hope this post will be helpful to anyone looking to adopt from GCFA.

    I'd love to write a review about my favorite little shelter but first to respond to the first…read moreposter John. Firstly John, the shelter is run on donations and volunteers. The money that would be spent on a fancy expensive sign is instead spent on housing, caring and feeding the hundreds of homeless ferrets that pass thru their door. Secondly, the volunteer you encountered most likely has taken time out of her day to scrub and disinfect 50+ cages with sometimes 100 or so ferrets ( that is an overwhelming amount of poop ) and clean several play pens dozens and dozens of times between each ferret's free time. It's exhausting work but it's done out of selflessness and love. Please understand what really matters here not how big the sign is or a torn shirt on a volunteer. It is that the shelter is a safe haven for the sick and abandoned and that it does its best day in and day out for each and every one of it's residents. That being said here is my review. I have adopted several ferrets over the years all thru GCFA. I have been happy with each and every one. Their facility is super clean and volunteers are very knowledgeable. They offer tons of advice and support and are extremely good about making sure they are going to a great home. Adoptions are thorough and fairly quick. The best thing about adopting vs buying from a pet store ( next to giving a little one a second chance at a forever home ) is that you are usually able to get some back ground on the ferret's personality. The volunteers get to know them and will tell you general characteristics. Pet store ferrets are usually not very handled and very rarely does an employee know anything about their pet shop ferrets other than the price. Shelter ferrets are handled by ferret lovers and GCFA goes above and beyond in many, many ways.
