There…read morewere a couple postings of 8 week old female yellow labradors that were available, so I called Kevin to ensure that I could pick one up over the weekend. He was extremely friendly and answered the 25 or so questions that I had in regards to vet visits, vaccinations, and overall raising a pure breed. He was very knowledgable and was able to answer every single question I had, making the conversation very smooth and comfortable. I live in downtown Chicago, and the drive out to Arthur, IL took just under 3 hours. I had no cell phone reception when I got to the area, so make sure you have the exact address and directions to the residence before you get there. Upon arrival, Kevin greeted us at the door with the most beautiful little gal in the world! Pure breed, yellow labrador retriever, looking very healthy, beautiful coat color, well fed, and warmed up to us almost immediately. Kevin had me fill out some paperwork, transfering ownership, a 1-year health guarantee, canine registration form, as well as a canine health record that showed vaccinations and de-worming schedules to date. He gave us a small bag of dog food as well, so we could continue to use this as we transition to a new formula and get the puppy acclimated to our environment. Thank you so much Kevin for helping us grow our family! Highly recommended if you're looking for healthy labradors in the Chicagoland area, and from someone who is very friendly and knowledgable with dogs. Best, Charlie

Emily and everyone at Little Paws actually care about the cats. They made sure they were medically well and were ready to be adopted. I had originally intended to adopt two black cat sisters, but they have another sister, a Torti. After cuddling with her, we decided to adopt her as well. All three kittens are so full of life and make everyday so fun. If you are considering adopting a cat or kittens from any organization, please contact Little Paws of Mt. Vernon. Emily got back to us super fast and gave us a private appointment to view their cats via zoom. We paid the adoption fee that day and by the end of the week, we went to pick up our kittens, after they were spayed. Little Paws of Mt. Vernon is a wonderful organization. They care so much about the cats and the adoptive pet parents.

From the owner: We are a local cat/kitten rescue. Please contact us at 314-494-4792 for adoption information!read more

I'm not usually someone to post something like this, but I'm extremely angry. Last Sunday, Kyle and…read moreI went to the Terre Haute Humane Society and wanted to adopt a dog. First off, we wanted to adopt an older/adult dog (not a puppy) because we know there are so many that have likely been there for a long time, while puppies seem to go in and out pretty quickly because everyone wants a puppy. After asking to see 4-5 different adult dogs and not seeing a single one of them, the staff steered us in the direction of a puppy. It really seemed like they did not want to show us any of the adult dogs. They had a few litters of puppies, and mentioned 2 chiweenie puppies. Kyle has been wanting a weiner dog so we asked to see those two. They brought them both out to us and we fell in love with them! We decided we would apply to adopt one of them (I'm only allowed to have one pet living on campus). We hung out with the puppies and held them for about a half hour, and then filed an application to adopt. While we were hanging around in the lobby with the puppies, a couple came in to pick up a cat they were set to adopt, and a staff member told them that the cat was gone because another family had come and adopted it between the time they applied and Sunday when they had an appointment to pick it up. The couple was completely blindsided by this and was really upset, but went ahead and picked out a different cat. This should have been a red flag to us, looking back. So anyways, we file our application and we were told that they would call us on Tuesday to let us know if we were approved. We were so excited, as soon as we left we went straight to pet smart and looked at the prices on beds, food, puppy pads, harnesses and leashes, toys, etc. to prepare for if we were approved. Well, Tuesday comes and goes and we heard nothing. Wednesday at lunch we still hadn't heard anything, so I called and left a voicemail. The same thing happened on Thursday. Yesterday was pretty crazy for me so it totally slipped my mind to check in on Friday. So, today Kyle drives out to the shelter and when he walked in, the staff member literally said to him, "What do you want?" Kyle explained why he was there, he hadn't heard back after leaving messages, and the staff member said "Uh nope. Not the chiweenies. They're gone." Kyle asked what they meant and they told him that a family had come and adopted both of them this week. They first of all never contacted us to even let us know if we were approved, let alone to inform us that the dog we wanted was gone. We were very excited for this puppy, so of course we're a little sad about it not working out and we can only hope both of them went to a good home, but I'm extremely angry from the lack of communication and professionalism from the staff at the Terre Haute Humane Society. I'm really sad too because I have always been an "adopt, don't shop" type of person which is why we went the route of adopting through a local shelter. However, I don't think Kyle and I will ever support them in the future, which hurts because we know that each and every animal in that shelter deserves better, happier, fuller lives. But this is already the second time in the span of one week that I've witnessed/experiencing this happening. I'm not here to tell you not to adopt from them, because those animals need good homes, but please don't get attached to a specific animal or expect any kind of communication or professionalism from them, or you will be let down.

This woman's story on Facebook. I had to share. Shut this place down immediately. To the Terre…read moreHaute Humane Society, I understand that not every single animal brought to you can be saved. But, when you OFFER to help and ask someone to foster that animal I do feel like you owe it to that person to inform them of its well being and discuss next best options. I brought "Fleur" the rescue cat to you in good faith DESPITE the multiple negative comments saying "you won't hear back from them" and other slander about your organization because I wanted her to get help quickly! To my pleasant surprise you gave me medicine, I brought her home, kept her comfortable, warm, feed and she continued to improve. Cue the very swollen Paw. Over the weekend Fleurs paw started to swell. I made the THHS aware on Monday and they asked that I bring her in, so I did. By their request and no surprise to me they asked to keep her, I assumed to treat her. They said I'd hear from them in a few days. Tuesday, nothing. Wednesday, left a message and nothing. Thursday, called and nothing. Friday, left a message and finally receive a call back. THHS: Hello this is THHS They asked I call and tell you that she was put down. Me: umm What!!!? Why!? THHS: "Her foot was three times the size it should've been, she was making an awful meow and she lost her appetite. She was in pain and declining." Me: Okay, well I was fostering her don't you think you should have let me know? Or given me the option to get her to a vet? Honestly ... idk what was said after that I was in complete shock and disbelief I do remember the lady saying "You were fostering her for us?" Like it was a question. Point is. I brought this cat to THHS thinking they would give it the help that it needed. If you weren't going to offer her that then you shouldn't have accepted her or should have referred us elsewhere. I was trying to act as quickly as possible to get this cat what she needed and I trusted you to do just that! I would have NEVER left her with you had I known she was going to be euthanized! My dog has terminal cancer for goodness sake and putting him down wasn't even an option for me!!!! I had two separate people offering to pay for this cats vetting bills once they learned of her problems but she never got that opportunity! All they had to do was call me back and I could have taken her! I trusted that THHS would do right by this cat and they certainly did not! Sure, maybe the THHS is full and busy and it's expense to run and the list goes on but it's what you do, it's your business! I'm sure they have done right by other but this really has me thinking.. When they posted the December 2021 impact it looks fantastic right? But, What does your December 2021 impact statement look like for euthanized animals?
