Is anyone else too hot to function? Us too. Our brains are too steamed to come up with a fun idea for this post, so instead we'll let these adorable faces speak for themselves.

Stop by the shelter to adopt from 10 to 5PM tomorrow. We have AC and water!

Questions? Contact our team at 618-235-3712.

-Slip leads for field trips
-Treats for good behavior
-Toys for recess time
-Cleaning supplies for our crew

So, while you are checking off items on your supply list, consider adding one more;
every donation helps support our Teacher’s Pets as they wait for their forever home.

Emily our newest staff member had these wise words when asked for a caption - "Staring at the blank page before you, open up the dirty window, Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find".🌞

We may be losing our minds a little over here... I mean, can you blame us? We're SWIMMING in baby creatures, Kittens, Puppies, (maybe the occasional human baby) and we really could do for a good adoption week😅! If you're in the market for cute and cuddly and maybe slightly messy (who isn't a little messy tho), stop in and check em' out.

We'll be open tomorrow from 10am-5pm! Questions? Give our team a call at 618-235-3712.

Class is in session, but at BAHS, it feels like the school year never ends!

Our team is taking a break from the endless litter boxes and puppy nibbles to share their back to school stats. While the rest of the world counts years, we count by the volume of adorable (and adoptable!) chaos: it's day 8,922 of kitten and puppy season.

Comment below to wish our staff good luck on yet another day of chaos coordination. The best back to school gift? Adopting one of our little fuzzy pupils. Stop by today until 5pm!

It's Son and Daughter Day, and although we know it's a lot easier to raise furry children than human ones, we still think dogs and cats count. Celebrate by adopting a new son or daughter who doesn't even have to be dropped off at soccer practice!

We're open from 10 to 5PM tomorrow.

Questions? Contact our team at 618-235-3712.

We are open Tuesday from 10-5! Have a question? Give our team a call at 618-235-3712.

Meet Cosmo!

He is the star of the show anywhere he goes. Flopping over in your lap, on the grass, and striking a pose wherever! He enjoys a good zoomie, having the s***k of your average teenager, but on the inside he is a big softie.

Because of his excessive charisma, he wants to be the main character (and only) in your life. Despite that, he makes for the sweetest human companion; giving hugs and kisses all day, everyday.

Snuggles are his love language, and treats from his favorite person are an added bonus to his day! Cosmo is pretty smart, knowing his basic commands and always eager to learn more tricks. And, he is a very quick learner! Doing his best to become your shadow, his body is always between your legs or draped over them.

If you are looking for a snuggly, s***ky companion Cosmo is your guy ⭐
