🔥 The hot temps have come in FAST, so it’s important to keep your pets cool to prevent heat stroke! Walk them early morning or evening and leave them at home if you have errands to run! ☀️

June is National Foster a Pet Month!
Fostering can help free up space in a shelter so more pets can be saved, it can help give pets one-on-one attention to help them decompress, can help a puppy grow & learn so it’s ready to be adopted.. the list goes on! There are many local rescues that are always looking for fosters!

If you’ve fostered before, share photos of your past or current fosters below! 🐾

We had a visit yesterday from little babies B & E from Peace for Pits, Inc., a local rescue doing awesome work! 🐾

While cicadas are all the buzz right now, it’s important to remember that fleas, ticks & mosquitoes are also out in full force and carry all sorts of diseases like Lyme & heartworm, so make sure you’re keeping your pet up to date on their preventatives! 🦟

Our sweet Firefly still needs a home! Let’s get this girl adopted! ✨

Greetings, I'm Firefly! 🤍

I was found as a stray, and a kind lady started feeding me while she searched for my owners. I was very sweet, and wouldn't leave her yard. After a week, temperatures were starting to drop again, and she didn't want to leave me out in the cold for one more night. I was brought into Help Save Pets while the search for my owners continued. Unfortunately, a happy reunion was not successful. I am now in the search for a new family!

I am a very chatty girl, and will demand pets! I am not a picky eater, and I'm good at using the litter box! Making biscuits is one of my favorite things to do! I am a huge cuddle bug, and have loved everyone I have ever met!

Upon arrival, I was diagnosed with something called Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV). This just makes me much more special! Upon further testing, it looks like I have the regressive form of the disease. This means I have a low risk of developing FeLV-related diseases, and I'm less likely to shed or spread the virus. However, it is still recommended that I be the only kitty in the home. I will need to be indoors only, but I don't mind that one bit! I will require a good diet, and should probably stay away from raw foods. Because of this, I'll be hanging out with my friends upstairs, but you can still schedule a meet & greet!

I have many friends here, but would love a family of my own!

Tiny little Binx visited us for a first visit and definitely is a cute kitten indeed! 🐈‍⬛
Reminder that we will be closed tomorrow for Memorial Day!

05/24/2024

We had a visit from Gravy, a kitten that was adopted here! He’s gotten so big and is such a handsome guy! 🥹 It always makes us so happy to see our former HSP friends!

05/22/2024

They have ARRIVED! 🪳
So, do you have to worry about these creepy crawlies and your pets? Overall, no! Cicadas do not bite or sting, so at most, your pet may get a mild upset stomach!

Happy Friday! Please enjoy some photos of daycare fun! 🐾

Don’t forget preventatives!

A message from Angel: Heads up, we will be closed next Monday!

We had to jump on this trend with some of our daycare friends! 😂

Are you so excited for Christmas or are you Ripley? 🎄

We genuinely can’t believe Buckeye is still with us & not with a forever family! This boy is truly a lover and an all around great cat. As soon as you start petting him, he purrs & starts making biscuits! He is so chill and loves cuddling. The techs gave him a bath yesterday (look at him being so handsome with his bandana) and said he was even excellent for that! Buckeye is 7 years old and is FIV+ but don’t be afraid of that! Everyone (and we mean everyone) in the hospital loves him & we know he would make someone so happy! For more information on Buckeye, please visit https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/39002683-downers-grove-illinois-cat

How is Buckeye not getting scooped up??? There’s nothing this sweet 7 year old boy wants more than a person to snuggle and love all day! He is FIV+ but we don’t want that to stop him from getting a home as this boy is ready to be someone’s best buddy! For more information on Buckeye, please visit https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/39002683-downers-grove-illinois-cat

Bellie says Sundays are for pilates 🤸‍♀️ How is your dog exercising today? Enjoying this beautiful weather after the heat wave? ☀️

Caption this! 😂 Remember, it’s a hot one today so don’t let your pets out for too long!

The weather has warmed up, which means it’s time to make sure your pet isn’t overheating! Tucker is demonstrating one way he likes to keep cool - play in the hose! How does your pet stay cool? ☀️

Who else is curled up like Piper on this snowy Saturday? 🙋‍♀️

May your Sunday be as enjoyable as Bentley’s, even with this darn snow we can’t seem to escape! Do you have a pet that’s excited for another snow day? ❄️

We just hope both teams have fun, much like daycare regulars very good girl Breezy & very good boy Archie! Both performed amazingly! Who are you rooting for? 🏈
