By

The next few weeks is typically difficult for animal shelters. At Heartland, they said they usually see a large increase of strays around the Fourth of July holiday. Now the shelter needs the public's help to continue to operate after this disaster. Community members like Valerie Abruscato saw the call for help on social media and brought what they could to help, while volunteers clean up the murky mud left behind.

The shelter is now in talks to open a pop-up adoption center at the nearby Chicago Executive airport.
