It’s hard to forget the faces of Cosmo and Wanda, two kittens who arrived at Naperville Area Humane Society in rough shape after a kind Samaritan found and rescued them from the cold outside elements and brought them to our shelter for safety and care.
When Cosmo and Wanda arrived, their eyes were severely swollen shut with pus and blood, so severe that our medical team was not sure they would ever be able to properly see again.
On top of their vision being impaired, Cosmo and Wanda were struggling to breathe on their own and had spent 12-hours being incubated in an oxygen tank with IV ports pumping vital fluids back into their systems.
With the help of one of our loving and dedicated fosters, the sick kittens spent only a few days at the shelter before heading into their foster home where they could heal and regain strength.
Fast forward to now, just five weeks later, Cosmo and Wanda can see again, breathe on their own, have gained much needed weight, and even have the energy to play - like all kittens should.
No longer facing the cruel elements of the outside world to which they were born into, Cosmo and Wanda were given a second chance - thanks to you.
With the donations from our community, Cosmo and Wanda were able to receive the treatment they needed and continue to make great strides every day.
You made a difference in Cosmo and Wanda’s lives by helping us provide the care they needed to survive.
It is because of you, Naperville Area Humane Society can continue caring for sick and injured animals like Cosmo and Wanda without hesitation and provide them with immediate medical attention.
Without the support from generous animal advocates like you, who allow us to care for animals when they’re facing the worst circumstances, Cosmo and Wanda’s outcome could have been unimaginable.
Today, we’re asking you to help support our lifesaving work by making a donation of any size, so that animals in the future can have the same chance as Cosmo an
What's better than the joy of choosing your own gift? 🎁
Our dogs had the best time showcasing their personalities and picking out their very own special toys for the day—pure happiness all around! ✨🩵

Make a Promise to Homeless Animals in Need Today! 🩵🐾
These are the faces of just a few current residents at the Naperville Area Humane Society who have been patiently waiting to find their forever homes. Without your continued support we would not be able to help the animals who come through our doors every single day.
We’re asking you to join us in making a promise to them today on Giving Tuesday.
This is our promise: ALL animals who step foot in our shelter will have the highest quality of care, respect, compassion, and love. 🐶🐱
On Giving Tuesday, please make your promise with a gift to support our services and resources to help more pets in need. Let’s make sure all animals have what they need - a safe place to live, food and water, medical care and treatment, and the love of a family.
Your gift is so important right now as animal shelters across the U.S. are drowning in their capacity to house, feed, and properly care for homeless animals.
We ask that you please make a promise to homeless animals and make a gift this Giving Tuesday.

✨ Hope Medical Update! ✨
After being found as a stray with a fractured tibia in her right leg and a fractured femur in her left leg, Hope received surgery on her hind legs to stabilize her injuries and ensure she walks normally again.
It has been just a few days postoperative surgery and this happy-go-lucky girl is back on her feet, tail wagging, and taking the steps in the right direction down the road to recovery!
A big THANK YOU to all who contributed to Hope's medical campaign and all who have been following along Hope’s medical journey. It’s because of friends like you that NAHS can continue helping pets like Hope.
Hope has already made remarkable improvements, but she will still need time to fully recover. NAHS is in need of a medical foster who has the space and time to care for Hope while she is recovering from surgery.
