Save a life this Christmas! We received a call this morning that a cat is going to be euthanized because of an older woman having to move😢 we are absolutely full with no place to squeeze in another cat. It’s 6 years old always been inside. Not sure about details of s*x if it’s fixed etc but I can find out. If it’s not fixed I will see to it being done if someone will give it a home.

We are experiencing an
influx of sick babies requiring vet visits and medication .
Our monetary donations are at an all time low. We understand the cost of living has gone up as we are paying much more for supplies here and at home. We operate this shelter on donations alone. We have no other means of income except for our fundraisers which are swallowed up by insurance which is quite high. It is hard for me to ask because our community has supported us so long and faithfully but we are really having some difficulty financially right now. If you can spare any amount we would certainly appreciate it. Every penny goes to the care of the animals and keeping them safe fed medicated and much more. We have PayPal , mailing address is P O Box 194 Flora Il 62839 or you can stop by Mon or wed morning 9-11 or Friday afternoon 1-3. Anything is very much appreciated.

Today is the feast day of St Francis of Assisi. St Francis is associated with patronage of animals and the natural environment, and it became customary for Catholic and Anglican churches to hold ceremonies blessing animals on his feast day of 4 October. He is often remembered as the patron saint of animals.

We pray,
"Almighty and everlasting God, Creator of all things and giver of all life, let your blessing be upon all these animals. May our relationships with them mirror your love, and our care for them be an example of your bountiful mercy. Grant the animals health and peace. Strengthen us to love and care for them as we strive to imitate the love of Jesus Christ our Lord and God’s servant Francis. Amen." ~ Service from St. Paul and the Redeemer Episcopal Church, Chicago IL

October is Adopt A Shelter Pet Month. If you can’t take a Pet in, there are many ways you can help us.

Give. We understand that not everyone can adopt a pet this October, but the good news is that you can still help find loving homes for pets in need by making a gift to Fur A Good Paws today. Your generous contribution will help support our rescue and adoption programs. We use Equine bedding pellets for our litter.

Volunteer. We need dedicated volunteers to help care for the pets. It is not easy, but with more help it makes it easier. The rewards are wonderful and the love they give us make the work well worth it.

Fundraise. What better way to celebrate your love of dogs and cats than to host a fundraiser in their honor? We (Fur A Good Paws) hold several fund raising events throughout the year. Your support helps us pay veterinary bills, utility and internet/phone bills, etc...that allow us to keep the Center open.

Adopt. If you are ready to open your heart and home to an animal in need, please consider adopting a pet today. All of our pets are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

If you wish to adopt one of our other pets you must fill out an adoption application. The application can be picked up at Fur A Good Paws Rescue and Adoption Center. Sorry, our website is down right now.
Fur A Good Paws hours are 9-11 am on Monday and Wednesday and 1-3 pm on Friday. But we will try to arrange to have someone at the Center at your convenience. We are located on N Stanford and N Ave by the overpass. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!”
