Extra Love Needed
Dumbledore is a handsome blind orange tabby cat, who was found as a stray. This senior gent has recently been diagnosed with renal failure and needs sub-q fluids twice a week and is on a couple of different medications. He is a super affectionate guy, who just wants to be held and a lap to enjoy life. He is desperately looking for an adoptive or foster home. Financial donations are also accepted towards his care. For information, please email fostercareinfo@save-a-pet-il.org or call 847-740-7788, ext. 101.

UPDATE: A kind soul stepped forward and welcomed this handsome guy into her home...even though she is allergic to cats! We still have other cats in desperate needs of a home, so please, if you can open your home to one, contact us!

Save-A-Pet Precinct
You have probably seen "Animal Precinct" on the Animal Planet channel! We have our own version right here at the shelter. Our licensed humane investigators have been busy helping animals in the surrounding communities. Each investigation could take weeks and sometimes even months before things get resolved, but our investigators are persistent and will not close a case until the animals are safe and cared for properly. Please remember, if you see an animal in trouble, you may be their only hope. You can contact your local police, animal control or a humane organization such as Save-A-Pet (847-740-7788, vm. 154) who has licensed investigators on hand. Your call can remain anonymous and you could be saving a life! Check out the Illinois Humane Care Act:
