- NAPERVILLE area humane society -

The Naperville Area Humane Society is the official non-profit partner of the Naperville Ale Fest.

Their mission:
To promote the humane treatment of companion animals and create lasting human-animal bonds.

Each animal is tenderly cared for at the Naperville Area Humane Society. Entering a shelter can be stressful or possibly even terrifying to some cats and dogs. Our dedicated and highly trained staff and 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 the Naperville Area Humane Society, 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 continue 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.
