Hello.
First of all, I should note that Google Answers provides general
information, not professional legal advice. If you need professional
legal advice, you should contact a qualified attorney in your area.

There is no numerical limit on the number of cats (or dogs) you may
have in Chicago.
See:
" In Woodridge, the number is three. Neighboring Downers Grove says
four is the limit. Neither Chicago nor Deerfield has a limit.
Schaumburg sets the number at four and neighboring Hoffman Estates
puts the limit at five. How can so many communities have such
different ordinances regarding the number of dogs and cats permitted
in a household?"

Additional source:
"In Chicago, there are no limits. In Naperville, a resident can have
no more than three dogs or cats, and in Morton Grove, no more than
four of any one species. There's a three-pet limit in Oak Forest,
except for residents adopting from an animal-rescue organization. They
can have up to five dogs.
In Wilmette, where residents can have five pets but only three can be
dogs or cats, corporation counsel Tim Frenzer said there have been no
citations or prosecutions in at least the last decade for excessive
animals.
Under the Oak Park ordinance, residents can have no more than two
dogs or four indoor cats in a single-family home, and no more than one
dog or two cats in an apartment or condominium. Ten animals, not
including fish, are allowed in a home and five in an apartment, and
only one pigeon is allowed per residence."
