About Illiana Rescue

We are a small, 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization of volunteers.

We save dogs and cats from euthanasia, abuse and neglect.

We work closely with local shelter management, veterinarians and community members, serving Northwest Indiana-Lake County.

We mainly focus on animals in dire need, such as death row dogs and cats at high-kill shelter facilities, severely neglected or badly beaten owner surrendered pets from veterinary hospitals and animal impounds.

We provide proper care, medical treatment, therapy and social rehabilitation for the animals in foster homes.

We give animals a second chance at long, happy, healthy lives in loving adoptive homes.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
