Help "All 4 the Love of Cats" Resist the Limitation of Cats Rescued and Displayed at Petsmart
Final supporters
All 4 the Love of Cats is a non-profit cat rescue organization that takes in cats that are strays, abandoned, or most importantly, at risk of euthanasia. These cats are fully vetted and then put up for adoption at the Niles and Northbrook Petsmarts in Illinois. The Petsmart stores allow a great opportunity for the cats to be seen and adopted.
Currently, in the Niles Petsmart adoption center, there are 14 cages. Unfortunately, Petsmart management has declared that they want 6 cages out of the store within the next few days. By eliminating these cages permanently, All 4 the Love of Cats will lose the chance of saving the lives of cats that may otherwise be euthanized in local pounds. We need your help to show Petsmart that we need those cages to save the lives of these helpless cats. Please help us save these cages and allow more viewing and adoptions of these loving animals. They deserve a chance.
Thank you for being a voice & Please spread the word!

The momentum behind this effort has surpassed my initial expectations. It is encouraging to see such widespread recognition of the critical role these adoption spaces play in saving vulnerable lives.

I adopted two cats from the Niles store. All 4 The Love of Cats does a WONDERFUL job saving kitties! I would definitely think twice about continuing to shop in any Petsmart that didn't continue to support animals in need!! This is literally life or death for these cats!!
Even if one person can find a pet that they can love from these cages, not only will lives be saved, but they will be enriched in ways beyond words. All4the Love ofCats is already pushed to its limit. Petsmart has the capacity, just not the support or vision. Lets help!
what's wrong with 14 cages? As a former employee at their store I can say that there is absolutely no reason to take cages out. Help find these cats a home, that;s a part of the PetsMart charity right?
Please reconsider! It is good for both the store and cats to have them there. And trust me, if there are fewer cats you will lose shoppers. People looking for a pet do not just want to choose from a few.
Petsmart's assistance in finding homes for cats is invaluable - there are so many cats and so few opportunities to display them to the public in a safe, fully vetted manner. Please allow the 6 cages to continue to show these cats.
all for the love of cats
Petsmart this is bad for your business.

without cages there's no safe place for these cats that have already been discarded by society and now have a second chance at a happy life that they deserve so much. please do not take away this opportunity these poor animals to live out the life that they were supposed to live happily
