Cats needing rescue in the Chicago Area

Niko and Cloud who blog at Cats in Maryland asked us to pass this along.

I'm a pet photographer in Chicago and often go to people's homes or shelters in the area, photograph pets and help them find homes. I went to one woman's home and there were about 85 cats ... disgusting situation. So, basically, I accidentally stepped into this hoarding case and I'm now working with the city of Evanston to find a safe place for all the cats to go ... 35 have gotten out, but that leaves 50 cats to go. All are black, or black and white ... most are at least spayed/neutered and virsu-tested, some are vaccinated, and a few are micro-chipped too. I'm reaching out to all the rescues and seeing if anyone can take just two cats ... They are a little on the shy side, but none have been truely feral. We can even deliver! I've got to get the cats out by March 31st or they will be euthanized.
