I have been going back and forth with this company about a particular cat for over a week now. And now all of a sudden the cat got behavior issues that were never mentioned before nor listed on there website. The representative, Ainat is not approving my application for me to adopt the cat because l have a 7 year old in my home. I'm more than equipped to deal with challenging behaviors with humans and animals alike. I taught early education for 10 years so I'm pretty sure my children and l can handle a cat. Farther-more, they ask for references. This is a cat, not a child! They had the nerve to ask one of my references,"Does she really own the building she stays in?!?!?!"Thats extremely unprofessional and none of your damn business. So black people don't own property or run businesses. I contribute to all affairs that pertain to my building. The building I live in is family owned so whenever my parents leave this earth; who in the hell you think the building is going to????? Hyde Park is racist as hell and out here giving half-ass information on their animals. If the cat is that much of a problem why even post pictures of it.

This is a tough place to review since it's not a "typical" service, but I really admire the work…read moreCACC does despite being overcrowded and stretched thin. They're doing their best for the animals, and I hope sharing my experience helps anyone considering adopting. We ended up with the sweetest little cat that we absolutely love! We first visited on a Thursday around 4 pm. After waiting about 10 minutes, we filled out a form about what kind of pet we were looking for. About 25 minutes later, a volunteer walked us through the facility. It's clear they're over capacity, there were animals even in the hallways and in the cat rooms the cats are kept in wall cages. You don't get much time to interact, so it's tricky to gauge temperament. We chose a cat we thought seemed sweet. She still needed to be spayed and microchipped, so we couldn't take her home that day. They couldn't give a clear timeline, but by Monday we got the call that her surgery was done. We picked her up Tuesday, which took about an hour of waiting. Adoption fees were completely waived (normally $65, which is already very reasonable), and the cost of her surgery and microchip were covered. Once home, she did come down with a URI, so we had to visit the vet and get her some meds, but she's doing well now. Overall, CACC is a great place to adopt from if you're patient and want to give an animal a second chance. The process isn't super streamlined, but the staff and volunteers clearly care, and you'll be helping an animal in need

Without even looking at me explained you cannot adopt any small dog from CCAC. Shelters are called and those dogs are held for them. Well of course, shelters charge $300-$500. So even tho these dogs were still there, they have to move to a shelter and find someone else? All a money game. City of Chgo, I should have known. The WORST part was as I was looking at other dogs, the same girl from front desk came looking for me and said "I heard you been talking about me!" Omg it felt like I was in HS. No, I haven't been talking about you to anyone! Asked her to send someone to show me another dog. Waited 15 min. No one came. She obviously didn't ask anyone to come help me. That was not allowing another dog to find a home. Shame on them!!! Dogs don't look very healthy, and half of them are trying to tear into you thru the cage. They need a much better staff! Sad environment all around and wouldn't recommend. (Unfortunately)

The entire process from the familiarization virtual meet through the daily communications on each walk was easy and comforting.

Jessica was our walker most visits and very clearly took excellent care of Beatrice and Violet. I looked forward to the daily updates that were not only thorough but thoughtfully wonderful each time. She was so considerate of being in our home which you'd never know anyone had even been in if she hadn't left the detailed notes about after visiting. She even brought in packages several times!

The place had a fresh scent, was very clean and uncluttered. Customer service was fair and parking is private (no-pay & metered street parking available). They do not offer pet care packages for new or existing clients for any preventative care, and they do not offer upfront quotes for basic services. The receptionist was really helpful but kept providing me low-cost options as if I was insisting the prices were high. I was slightly offended and let her know I live across the street and did not need lower prices. I just wanted to know if they provided quotes for services upfront if I knew what vaccines I needed for my puppy. I am unsure if I was pre-judged or misunderstood so I did not make it past the initial interaction to review the services.

Four years ago, Miranda killed my dog. It was not intentional but it was negligent. I avoided…read morewriting a review because I didn't want to write it from a place of anger but four years later I think about this everyday and I will never get over it. I feel that it's unfair to not share my experience with others so they can make their own choices. I had 2 dogs and one was a very selective dog, meaning he didn't get along with all dogs he met. Miranda was referred to us by a friend whose dog had similar issues. When we met Miranda to see her facility, I asked her if she would be cresting the dogs when she left the building. (I asked this for a reason) she told me that if they were not crated at home, she would not crate them and they could just stay in her living space. It turns out that Miranda was crating my dogs together when she left them and that is ultimately what led to my dogs death. My selective dog could not be crated with any other dogs. If he was and anything triggered him, he would redirect onto another dog in his crate, even his brother and they would fight. This happened so Miranda came home and found that my dogs had a fight in their crate. She took the selective dog, Carson out to bathe him and ultimately left him unattended in the sink, tethered to the wall. He then tried to jump out of the sink and you can imagine the rest. We left for the weekend with 2 dogs and came back having only one.
