My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name means "white" in Japanese but since I'm a tuxedo girl maybe it is referring to the little white stripe running down my nose and my little white kisser. I am silky soft and LOVE being brushed - it feels great and gets me a spot right next to you. I am very nosy and will scope everything out in your (our!) house but I won't be gone long - I will keep coming back to give you full reports of my discoveries. Before I leave, please give me some good nose rubs and I'll give you a kiss - then off I go to look around again. I don't play much yet but maybe when I get more comfortable. For now, I'm happy to hang out with you, look out the window, and explore some more. I'm ready for you when you're ready for me.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Dog and cat adoptions are the cornerstone of our mission and services. After more than 40 years of sheltering animals and placing them into loving homes, our work is still not done. There are thousands of animals in shelters waiting for homes across the Chicagoland area. We hope you will take some time to learn more about our adoption process and meet the pets currently available for adoption.

NAHS strives to make appropriate, permanent matches between adopters and our cat and dog friends. Here is an outline of how the process works:

Visit the shelter during our adoption hours to see if there is an animal that interests you. Walk-ins are allowed to see the cats; dogs are by appointment.

Complete our brief "Pets and People Profile" and discuss it with an adoption counselor to determine if the animal is well suited for your family.

Animal meet-and-greets are by appointment only. Walk-ins are not permitted.

More about this shelter

The Naperville Area Humane Society (NAHS) is a non-profit, limited admission animal shelter accepting cats and dogs. Our shelter can house as many as eighteen dogs and forty cats.

Each animal is tenderly cared for at NAHS. Entering a shelter can be stressful or possibly even terrifying to some cats and dogs. Our dedicated and highly trained staff and over 300 volunteers offer compassionate care to each animal and work to address his or her individual needs.

The staff works diligently to match the needs of each pet with a family eager to adopt a dog or cat. While at NAHS, all animals receive basic vaccinations as well as medical care. All animals are neutered or spayed before being released to their new owners. In addition, dogs’ temperaments are thoroughly assessed before being made available for adoption.

Unfortunately, there continues to be far too many cats and dogs needing help in our society. Since we cannot solve this overwhelming problem ourselves, we have evolved our approach to the homeless animal crisis to include innovative community service initiatives, such as humane education and a behavior helpline, while we continue to re-home animals.
