‼️‼️‼️‼️ CODE RED — URGENT ‼️‼️‼️‼️

🚨 WE ARE AT CRITICAL CAPACITY 🚨
EFFINGHAM COUNTY SHELTER & ANIMAL CONTROL

This is an emergency.

Our shelter is completely full — not “almost,” not “busy,” but out of space.
Kennels are full. Overflow is full. Every safe option we have is already in use.

Animals are still coming in — and right now, we have nowhere for them to go.

💔 We need help — immediately.

We are asking our community to step up RIGHT NOW:

🐾 Adopt — If you’ve been waiting, this is the moment.
🐾 Foster — Even short-term fosters save lives.
🐾 Rescues — We desperately need pull help.
🐾 Share — Visibility saves animals. Period.

Approved adopters may be able to meet animals the same day.
Fosters don’t have to be forever — they just have to be now.

Every hour matters. Every share matters.
What happens next depends on how fast this post moves.

📍 Effingham County Shelter & Animal Control
701 E. Eiche Ave, Effingham, IL
📞 217-347-5695
(Please leave a message if no answer — staff are overwhelmed caring for animals)

We cannot do this alone.
Please help us save them — today.

📌 Please fill out the adoption application pinned at the top of our page. (All pets in the home must be spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations.)

⚠️ Please note: the shelter is very busy and overwhelmed right now, and staff may not be able to answer every call. The best way to meet this sweet pup is to fill out an adoption application — once approved, the team will reach out to set up a time.

On the Eleventh Day of Christmas… Communication is Key!

• Keep conversations to one topic. Multiple conversations occurring at the same time may prove overwhelming to your loved on.

• Using long pauses between sentences can increase your loved one’s ability to understand what you are communicating, and will help with their delay in processing.

• It is very common for someone with cognitive impairment to ask about loved ones who have passed, to look for their mom or dad, or to make statements that you know to be inaccurate. In your loved one’s mind, all they are saying is true. It is best to enter into their reality and redirect the conversation to a different topic rather than to correct them.

On the Tenth Day of Christmas… Consider Preparing a De-Escalation Space.

Despite all of our best efforts to prepare and prevent issues, your loved one may still become overwhelmed.

Preparing a special room in your home that your loved one can go to if they get overwhelmed. This room can be equipped with soft lighting, light music and some familiar items that your loved one will recognize.

On the Ninth Day of Christmas… Be Aware of Visual Spatial Changes.

Did you know that many forms of memory impairment also cause visual spatial changes in an individual? Here are some helpful tips to use at home to ensure that your loved one remains safe.

• If your bathroom has white or light-colored walls behind the commode, this may make it more difficult for your loved one to identify the location of the commode within the space, potentially leading to your loved one missing the seat when sitting, or decrease accuracy with aim for your male loved one. Monitoring bathroom usage and being available to provide assistance will help to keep them safe.

• Consider using red or other colored place setting when serving your loved one with memory impairment. A contrast color beneath the food has been proven to increase appetite.

• Watch your loved one closely when they are using or are near stair cases, curbs, lips on sidewalks or any other change in plane, as depth perception may be impaired.
