Review for Almost Home Foundation, Elkgrove Village, IL, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

We are what is known as a foster fail. We set out to foster our sweet girl Bailey and she became a part of a dog people family. We had never had a cat before and with the pandemic upon us decided to look into fostering a cat at the pleading of our youngest daughter. We contacted Almost Home and were placed with a few cats before our Bailey came into our lives. When she arrived she was under weight and very sick with an upper respiratory infection. She vomited her food, struggled with taking her meds, couldn’t meow (and still doesn’t) but through it all was a sweet, gentle cuddle girl who just wanted some love and attention. It took many vet visits, endless tests and medications to stabilize her but Almost Home was with me every step of the way and would not let us adopt her until she was healthy enough to be released. Our Bailey is a special needs kitty with feline asthma and a very sensitive stomach but we fell in love with her and were finally able to make her a permanent member of our family and she is thriving!
