[h3]Hello Players![/h3]

We would like to inform you that the issue that occurred between July 29 and July 30, 2025, has been resolved.

Working with Steam, we determined that the platform was experiencing online maintenance between July 29 and July 30, which prevented Animal Shelter 2 from loading synchronization properly.

We now have confirmation from the Steam platform that the issue has been resolved.
