Meet our Animals!


Dorito
Nacho average gecko. Dorito is an adult male crested gecko found by Good Samaritans in Oak Park and loves exploring his tropical enclosure at night. Dorito is on the shy side right now, but with time and a calm home, we expect his personality to come out of his shell (well… his skin). He’ll do best with an adopter who enjoys observing natural behaviors and giving him space to settle in. If you’re ready to give this little explorer a safe place to land, Dorito might be your gu

Squeakers
Squeakers is a 25-year-old Senegal parrot who came to us after her owner passed away, and she is truly a very special girl. She’s affectionate, hilarious, mostly quiet, and yes, she even eats her vegetables. Squeakers’ biggest goal in life is pretty simple: be near her people and love them with her whole tiny bird heart. Because she’s a sweet old lady, Squeakers does have some weakness in her legs and benefits from soft, flat perches. She may not always be able to balance on

Katya
Katya is a Russian tortoise with a big personality, even if she may seem shy at first. If you spend a bit more time with her, she'll warm up to you and you'll see her sassy, adventurous personality. She regularly redecorates her enclosure by digging and moving things to her liking. When let out of her enclosure, she likes to roam and explore her new surroundings, but if she gets overwhelmed she makes a beeline for the corner of the room. Her feelings about being held can be c

Strega
Strega the anery corn snake is ready for his time in the limelight, and we can see why! This little guy is a star- his foster mom reports that he loves to pop out of his hide to say hi to humans and dogs alike, and is always ready for a good time. We're absolutely in love with his yellow eye stripe too. What's not to like about this delicious little noodle?

Rocky
Rocky is equal parts adventurous and sweet. She is a leopard gecko who likes to climb, and can often be found perched atop her tree bark hides. When she’s not exploring, she loves to soak up her artificial “sun,” curl up for a nap, or enjoy a good meal. Rocky can be a little shy about handling and would thrive with a patient family willing to let her approach on her own terms. When given the space to choose connection, she shows the softest side of her personality. One day, s

Big Mac
Big Mac is a baby Pac-Man frog who’s still under a year old — about palm-sized and perfectly squishy-looking. While we’ve been calling him “he,” his actual gender is still a mystery. He’s a gentle little guy and doesn’t try to bite or squeal when briefly handled for feeding. Big Mac is on the timid side — he knows the world is big and he is… not — but he’s also not much of a runner. His preferred lifestyle is low-movement, high-vibes. Most days you’ll find him cozied up in mo

Saoirse
You know how great it is to take a vacation? Lovely Saoirse saw her opportunity for new adventures and took it - in a nice lady's suitcase. After accidentally relocating from Florida to Chicago, this lovely adult brown anole is ready to settle down with an appropriate enclosure and human servants to feed wait on her hand and foot. If you're looking for a chill girl and vacation vibes, Saoirse would be a perfect fit!

Paloma & Pepito
This pair of bonded green cheek conures are approximately 6 years old and seeking their forever home. If you’re looking for a pair of conures who bring love and laughs to your home, Paloma and Pepito might just be your perfect match. Paloma and Pepito rely heavily on each other for comfort and grooming. While they prefer to keep affection strictly bird-to-bird, they do love is interacting on their terms. Both birds are strong flyers who love to explore their space. They’ll
