Adoption process

The HSMC is a licensed rescue with the State of Illinois with foster homes established to provide care for the rescued animals. During the 2013-2014 licensing year, the HSMC adopted out 65 cats and 13 dogs through this program! Cats and dogs are allowed to remain at the shelter for 8 weeks to be reclaimed or adopted. Then the HSMC has two weeks in which to rescue the animals before they are euthanized. Adopters of HSMC rescues that have been living in foster homes find the animals make a smooth transition since they have been socialized. They have the opportunity to learn more about the animal from the foster parents, facilitating a good choice for a new pet. Foster parents also have the option of becoming the adopter of the animal for which they have provided care.
