Chicago Area Animal Shelters
A listing on this page does not necessarily imply the endorsement of PACT Humane Society.
To the best of our knowledge, organizations marked with an asterisk are "no kill" facilities. Be sure to ask each no-kill shelter's policy, because they vary. While we make every effort to provide accurate information, it is best to verify the shelter's policies if you plan on placing an animal there.
Consider adopting from one of these shelters if you can't find your ideal companion animal at PACT.
