Wendy's Story
Wendy is a super sweet senior gal, who’s already housetrained, crate trained and knows several basic commands, so she’s ready to move in when you are! Wendy enjoys her walks but prefers them in quieter “low-dog traffic” areas, where she can take in all the scenery and take her time smelling the flowers! And of course, a few treats along the way would not go amiss with this sophisticated lady!
Wendy would do best as the only pet in a calm home environment, without too many comings and goings, as she can be a bit nervous meeting new people or in noisy situations, so she is hoping her forever family can welcome her at her own pace and give her time to settle in.
But it doesn’t take long for Wendy to warm up, and when she does, you’ll know it, as she’ll roll onto her back, so you have the privilege of giving ‘milady’ plenty of belly rubs!
Are you Wendy’s new family? If you’re a patient adopter who can help this lovely senior gal enjoy her golden years in her forever home, Wendy will reward you with all the love she can bestow!

If you’re interested in adopting this pet, please complete the following steps:
1. Start by taking our ComPETibility Quiz to make sure they’re a good fit for your home. Your ComPETibility Score will help you compare your home to each pet’s needs!
2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.
3. After finishing the adoption application, complete the Adoption Inquiry Form! Once this form is submitted, our Adoption Team will take a look at your adoption inquiry and reach out within a few days.
Please note that while we can’t place holds on adoptable animals for your scheduled appointment, there are always plenty of homeless pets looking for a home! If you don’t meet the perfect pet, please feel free to complete a new Adoption Inquiry Form or visit our Adoption Center. Walk-ins are always welcome, but appointments are recommended for a more efficient visit!

Why Adopt?
Adoption is one of the best ways to save a life. Only a few thousand more adoptions each year in Chicago, a city of millions of people, and we will be a No Kill community! You can make a real difference.
At PAWS Chicago, we keep working to grow our operations to save more homeless pets. It's how we've gone from saving a few dozen to 5,000 pets a year. But it is our adopters who make the real magic happen by bringing these loving pets home. Adopt a pet and spread the word!
First Time Fostering? Learn More
There are many animals that need us today. Each foster family allow us to save more homeless pets by opening their home to a pet or litter in need of love and care for a few weeks. When we are able to send a pet or litter to foster, it frees up space in our Medical Center to bring in more pets in need.
Last year, our foster families took in 1,921 pets. Some needed a peaceful place to recover from illness or injury. Puppies and kittens just needed a bit of time in a home environment with good socialization so they could grow big enough to have their spay/neuter surgery before adoption. Other pets needed a calm and relaxing break from the stress of shelter life.
