Cageless, no-kill, eco-friendly adoption center for cats and kittens
Founded in 1970, our cats and kittens are featured for adoption in Chicago's greenest shelter. Harmony House is an eco-friendly, platinum LEED, cageless, no-kill shelter dedicated to rescuing and placing injured and abandoned cats. All the cats have access to huge windows, natural light, and a view of the trees and plants surrounding the building. The homelike environment allows adopters to get to know their individual personalities before choosing their new pet.
