November 2016
NOVEMBER IS ADOPT A SENIOR PET MONTH!
Here at Young at Heart, we celebrate senior pets all year long, but this month is officially Adopt a Senior Pet Month! And to celebrate, any senior pet that has been up for adoption three months or longer has their adoption fee waived this month!

Our longer-term senior pets have a wonderful guardian angel who is sponsoring their adoption fees this month in the hopes of helping them find their special someone. Here are just some of our special seniors hoping to meet their loving families in November! Though their adoption fee is waived, all other adoption screening applies. Add a senior pet to your family this month!

SILVER PAWS WAS A SMASHING SUCCESS!
What an amazing night! Over $110,000 was raised at this year's Silver Paws gala for homeless senior pets! A sold out crowd enjoyed a champagne welcome, live music, dinner and open bar, an incredible silent and live auction, and lots of attention from all of our Ambassadogs. Thanks to everyone who helped make this year's Silver Paws the best year yet! Mark your calendars for Silver Paws 2017 held on October 21, 2017 at 6pm at the Chicago Marriott Northwest!  Check out this year's photo booth pictures by Fotio here!    


Thank you to our wonderful 2016 Silver Paws
sponsors!!

WELCOME TO THE GOOD LIFE, MOLLY!

Molly, who found herself as a stray on the euthanasia list in a local shelter at the age of 21 (yes, you read that correctly - her age has been verified by a chip that no longer traces back to her person) is now safe, loved and snuggled into a cushy and heated bed with Young at Heart.
Molly is frail, but she's incredibly sweet, happy and full of purrs and being pampered in her foster home. We know that her quantity of time with us is uncertain , but thanks to your support, the quality of her time with us will be amazing. We're doing all we can to restore her to good health and keep her as happy and comfortable for as long as we can. Her bloodwork looks great, she's steadily gaining weight, and she is so very happy to be loved again. On a beautiful afternoon like this one, you can find her snuggled up in the sunshine streaming through the window.

One thing is certain -- Molly is loved and she is safe, and we are so glad she is here.
Welcome Molly!
YOUNG AT HEART ON YOU & ME EVERY MONDAY
Check out adoptable Harmony's television debut on  You & Me  this morning this past Monday! She was more interested in the treats than in being a star, but she was a good girl. Harmony's adoption fee is waived during Adopt a Senior Pet Month!

Every Monday in the month of November, You & Me will feature an adoptable dog from Young at Heart. Tune into WCIU You & Me from 6am-8am next Monday and every Monday in November!

HAPPILY EVER AFTERS
 
We can't think of a better way to celebrate Adopt-A-Senior-Pet month then celebrating new families! Congrats to the new families of Dooley, Cinnamon & Bandit, Tux and Whiskey!
