During the spring time, pets are especially prone to wandering since it is mating season. This results in way too many unwanted pets ending up in high kill rural animal controls and shelters. We get many of our animals from these areas where dogs and cats often are not spayed or neutered, they live as outside pets and they run loose. Did you know that 1 unspayed dog can turn into 67,000 dogs in 6 years and 1 unspayed cat can turn into 420,000 cats in 7 years? All of the mamma dogs and cats, puppies and kittens that we took into our care this spring, were at risk of being euthanized. SO PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD, SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR PETS AND DON'T LET THEM RUN LOOSE. ALSO MAKE SURE YOUR PET WEARS AN ID TAG AT ALL TIMES.

Springtime also brings an increased number of missing pets. With the number of coyotes on the rise in the Chicagoland area this poses a greater threat to unattended animals. Please keep your cats indoors, don't let your dog run loose in an unfenced area, have your pets microchipped and even if they have a chip, make sure your pet has a tag with your number on it so that they can safely be returned to you if they should get lost.
