PAWS Chicago volunteers selected up the pets, a mix of dogs and pet cats, in Springfield in the company’s pet rescue van. Promotion The animals that were saved as well as brought to Chicago were already in sanctuaries before Hurricane Ida, so the goal was to get those animals out of Louisiana sanctuaries to make space for animals that were recently displaced and homeless after the tornado who may still have a chance at being rejoined with family over there. Dr. Emily Swiniarski, veterinarian as well as chief medical policeman at PAWS Chicago, stated animals could be all set for foster residences as early as Thursday and up for adoption by next week if they’re healthy and balanced, yet appropriate medical care is very first concern.
