Mr. Beans is a large, male shepherd mix who is sweet and silly. He is very active and does well with his kennel mates and our staff. Mr. Beans would benefit from some structure and training.

Kelly is a shy, young female domestic shorthair who was found as a stray. She warms up to people slowly and would benefit from a patient and understanding family. Contact the Will County Humane Society at willcountyhumane.com and follow the instructions for the adoption process.

Mama Millie is a 3-year-old female tortie that was found as a stray with her kitten. She is gentle, affectionate, calm and very sweet. She loves attention and being petted. Now that her kitten has been adopted, it is time for Mama Millie to also find her forever home. To meet Mama Millie, email Catadoptions@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.

Lester is a 5-year old terrier that was relinquished when his owner could no longer care for him. He is full of energy and loves to run and play fetch. He loves naps when playtime has ended. Lester lived with another dog previously but is unsure of dogs he does not know – he would do best as the only dog in a home or with a slow introduction to other pets. He will be a lovable and great companion. To meet Lester, email Stacy@nawsus.org. Visit nawsus.org.

Nine-year-old Amulet is very sweet and loves to be petted and brushed. She is very outgoing with people and just loves the attention. She is front-paw declawed and already spayed. To meet Amulet, call Joliet Township Animal Control at 815-725-0333.

Norbert is a 2-year-old gentle pittie mix. Norbert loves people and toys. He gets so excited to play and will collect all the toys in his mouth, carrying multiple at a time. To meet Norbert, call Joliet Township Animal Control at 815-725-0333.
