🐾 Friday Gratitude Spotlight 🐾

As we continue to reflect on last weekend’s unforgettable 50th Anniversary “Paws for the Cause” Gala, our hearts are overflowing with gratitude for the incredible businesses, individuals, and friends who donated to our live and silent auctions — including those who so generously contributed monetary donations toward baskets and supplies.

Your generosity truly made this night possible.
Because of you, tails will wag, hearts will heal, and second chances are already beginning.

From stunning experiences and thoughtful gift packages to handmade goods, essential services, sponsorships, and financial support for auction baskets, the love you poured into your contributions was felt in every corner of the room. Our auction was a huge success because of your belief in our mission and your desire to help animals find loving homes.

To every single donor featured here, please know your support mattered.
It was seen. It was celebrated. And it will make a real and lasting impact.

With heartfelt gratitude,
The Henry County Humane Society – Geneseo
Board of Directors, Staff, and Volunteers

Together we are their voice, their hope, and their path to home. 💚

We are looking to add at least 5-12 of these for our shelter pups & cats! The are only $9 & these hand held lick mats help us when we need to examine an area on a dog or cat or bathe them whilst keeping them distracted! We can hold them easily or suction cup them to places too! If anyone would be willing to help purchase these you can Venmo us !

Thank you in advance for any helpers! If we get them all fulfilled we will update this post!

Our hearts are still SO full!!!🥹💛🐾

It has taken us a couple of days to even find the words, because how do you adequately thank a community as selfless, generous, and fiercely compassionate as ours?

To every single sponsor, donor, volunteer, auction contributor, guest, and silent hero behind the scenes, thank you. You made our Paws for the Cause 50th Year Celebration Gala not just an event, but a night overflowing with hope, love, and purpose. A night that reminded us that what we do is so much bigger than walls or a building, it is a community united by love, fighting for second chances.

From the incredible families and businesses who stood with us as Furry Friend Champions, to the many kind hearts who donated baskets, handcrafted goods, services, desserts (SPECIAL Shoutout to- Myrtles Pies, 'I Bake it That Way' Bakery & Cafe, & Geneseo Baking Company), and countless hours of time, to Designs on the Boulevard who created and donated some beautiful centerpieces for the event, and Lavender Crest Winery, who went above and beyond to make every detail feel warm, intentional, and unforgettable, you showed up for the animals. And that is everything!

Because of ALL of you, more animals will be rescued, healed, and loved. More second chances will be possible. And the next 50 years of lifesaving work are already being written, with love at the center of it all.

On behalf of our Board, our staff, all of our volunteers, and EVERY animal whose life will forever be changed because of your generosity, thank you. Thank you for believing in this mission. Thank you for being their voice. Thank you for proving, once again, that compassion is alive and well in Henry County.

Together, we are their hope. Their future. Their way home. 🐾💛

With IMMENSE GRATITUDE, The Henry County Humane Society—- of Geneseo

💔 From Broken to Beautiful 🐾 💫BUD💫

Update from Bud’s adopters:
When I first saw him in the shelter my heart shattered.
He was the roughest one there — his fur was so matted it hurt to look at, worms had taken their toll, one eye was sealed shut, and his tail… it had been cut off and was painfully infected. He looked defeated. Forgotten. Unloved.

But something in his eyes — beneath all that pain — whispered, “Please don’t give up on me.”

So I didn’t.

Fast forward three years… and look at him now. ✨
Healthy, strong, loved beyond words.
He spends his days curled up beside me, purring in peace — finally living the gentle life he always deserved.

Every time I see him sleeping safely, I’m reminded:
Love heals. Patience heals. Rescue changes everything. 💛

Thank you Henry County Humane Society - Geneseo, IL for giving this guy a fighting chance and saving his life so that i could have this best friend !! You are all so amazing!

🐾 Meet Ky – A Loyal Companion Looking for His Forever Home! 🐾
This handsome boy is Ky, a stunning 3-year-old Husky with soulful blue eyes and a heart full of love — just waiting for the right person to share it with. 💙

Ky can be a little shy at first and takes some time to build trust, but once you earn it, you'll have a devoted best friend for life. He’s wonderful on leash, enjoys peaceful walks, and thrives in a calm, consistent environment.
🏡 Ky is looking for a home where he can be the only pet and with no children — just a quiet, understanding human who will give him the space and love he deserves.

✨ If you're patient, kind, and ready to be someone's whole world, Ky might just be your perfect match.

📩 Message us to learn more or set up a meet-and-greet with Ky!
Let’s find this sweet boy the loving home he’s been waiting for. ❤️

🐾 Wish List Wednesday 🐾

This week, we’re in need of a kitten food and very specific dog food for one of our shelter dogs with digestive issues: Authority Large Breed Salmon & Rice — only available at PetSmart (link in comments).

This special formula keeps his tummy happy and healthy, and we want to make sure he doesn’t miss a meal.

We would love to have both dry food for daily meals and the canned version to help make those tummy meds go down easier!

🛒 You can order online from PetSmart, and have it shipped directly to:
