Adopt Me! Esther, Jim, Nelly, Dimpy

Every week Naperville Patch shares information on pets waiting to be adopted at the Naperville Area Humane Society and Animals Deserving of Proper Treatment.

Jim Hawkins is a 2-year-old male Domestic Shorthair that was transferred from another shelter due to lack of space. He is a very friendly cat who just loves to sit on laps, get lots of belly rubs and cheek scratches. He would be good with dogs and maybe another cat. Kids of all ages would be a great match for him since he is very tolerant and loving. Come on by soon to meet Jim Hawkins. He promises to be your new best friend!

Esther is a 10-year-old female Maltese Mix who was transferred from another shelter after being found stray. She is a super sweet and affectionate girl, but does need some extra TLC due to the fact that she has no teeth. She is good with other dogs and possibly a cat. Kids in her new home should be at least 8-years-old due to her petite size and age. Esther hopes you have room in your heart and home for a great gal like her.

Nelly and Dimpy

 Age: 1-year-old

Breed: Chihuahua

Background: Nelly and Dimpy were brought to A.D.O.P.T. in a shelter transfer from Quincy. They‘ve been at A.D.O.P.T. since May 2012.

Personality: This pair loves each other very much and they are quite bonded. We hope they can be adopted out together. Nelly is the leader and Dimpy is the follower. Nelly will be the first to greet you and then somehow communicates to Dimpy that everything is safe. Both dogs are a bit shy and timid. Once they have warmed up to you they are lap magnets.

Adoption fee: $250 each OR $350 for the pair.

Where to find this pet: For more information about any of the cats and dogs we have available for adoption, please contact A.D.O.P.T. Pet Shelter at 630-355-2299. All animals are spayed or neutered, micro-chipped and are up to date on age related vaccines. The shelter is a no-kill, nonprofit, animal shelter at 420 Industrial Dr., Naperville.

Kennedy

Age: 4-years-old

Breed: Calico - Domestic Short Hair Mix (Female)

Background: Owner give up.

Personality: Kennedy is definitely a "people" cat. Although she tolerates other cats - she would love to be part of a human family again. Curling up on someone's lap is her idea of the cat's meow. Spend some time with her and we are sure you will fall in love.

Adoption Fee: $100.00

Other: All animals at A.D.O.P.T. are vet checked, spayed or neutered, micro-chipped and are up to date on age related vaccines.
Where to find this pet: Please contact A.D.O.P.T. Pet Shelter at 630-355-2299. The shelter is a no-kill, nonprofit, animal shelter at 420 Industrial Dr., Naperville. Visit www.adoptpetshelter.org.
