Adoptable Pet Of The Week: Simba

MOKENA, IL — For those looking to adopt a pet, a great place to look for your new family member is at NAWS Humane Society of Illinois. This week's 'Adoptable Pet' is Simba, who is available for adoption at the humane society.

The society said Simba is a 13-year-old male Schnauzer mix.

"He is an older guy, but has the best personality and we think he has a lot of life left to live," the society said.

Simba loves attention, loves to go on walks and wants to be near people. He is an amazing companion/lap dog and loves a spot on the sofa to cuddle, the society said. He is good with other dogs and behaves well in doggie play group.

Simba is at NAWS after one of his owners passed away, and the other is moving. The society said he is very sweet and gentle, but he is sad at the rescue after living his life in a home, so the society wants to get him back into one right away.

You can email Heather at heather@nawsus.org or call NAWS at 708-478-5102 to set up an appointment with an adoption counselor to meet him.

NAWS Humane Society of Illinois is located at 9981 W. 190th St., Suite A, in Mokena. The society is open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday; 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday; and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday.
