Jessica 

This gorgeous senior is 16 year old Jessica. You may recognize her from previous posts, but we thought we would update you on how our precious Jessica is doing. She was brought in to LHS in late February with matted fur. It was very uncomfortable for her. Since then, she has received a much needed haircut. She is now much happier and healthier and has even enjoyed a few play sessions with our volunteers. She has proven that age is just a number. This old girl is still young at heart and still has quite a bit of spunk left in her. Sweet Jessica has quickly become a favorite of our staff and volunteers and we hope she will soon find a furever retirement home.

We have revamped our cage sponsorship program here at Lake Humane Society and we would like to invite you to help homeless animals. A cage sponsor covers the daily care of each animal that enters their designated cage for an entire year. We cannot provide a gentle and caring haven without YOU! 

Our revamped Cage Sponsorship Program provides greater opportunities to help the homeless, abandoned and injured animals of Lake County. While our existing program has helped tremendously over the years, our new program reflects the true cost of care for each animal housed within our shelter. The sponsorship will provide shelter, food, medicine and care for the animals that pass through our facility day after day. In return, cage sponsors will be recognized with a plaque on their sponsored cage for an entire year. Cages can be sponsored by both companies and individuals.

To become a Cage Sponsor and help 

countless homeless animals,visit our website!

Be sure to check and see if your company has a matching gift program in place in order to double (or even triple) your impact! We cannot do this without you. We thank you for your support.
