Nola is our favorite office assistant. She loves to take a nap on the couch in the shelter office, entertain herself with a squeaky toy, or come up to offer staff moral support while doing admin work (that is, she knows a good belly rub goes a long way). Nola is always willing to humor us with new outfits and accessories and has accumulated her own wardrobe during her time here. While Nola was in foster, she got to hangout with some great humans and even met a kitty! She took it all in stride, just happy to have a couch and new friend to cuddle with. Nola can be a Nervous Nelly at times and likes to stick to routines and take her time making new friends. She would love a homebody that "gets" her and is content to chill and watch a movie rather than have a bunch of people over. Us too, Nola.

We serve the pets and people in Northern Illinois and Southeastern Wisconsin. Our mission is clear: To take responsibility for each and every orphaned, abandoned, abused or neglected dog and cat which reaches our doors; to take them in and shelter them; to provide the best medical and physical care possible for them; to nurture them back to health if need be; and finally to place them into warm, loving, adoptive homes where they can enjoy the lives they deserve.
