We rescue abandoned, stray, and injured cats and kittens. Although our emphasis is on cats, we will do whatever we can to rescue other animals in need. Our rescue efforts are primarily within Lake County, Illinois (northeastern Illinois). We rescue in all towns, cities, etc. within Lake County and our foster and adoption sites are within Lake County.
We require an adoption application. We conduct veterinary reference checks. Once a person has been approved for adoption, out adoption coordinator will contact the person to set up meet and greets. Adoption fees are: Kittens - $175 for one, $300 for two; Teenage cats - $125; Adult cats - $100; Senior cats - $50 and a negotiable fee for special need or hard-to-place cats and kittens. We do follow-up calls to ensure the cats have integrated into their new homes.

We are currently a small rescue group with plans to grow gradually so that we don't lose the ability to maintain a personal/customer service relationship with adopters. Our current Board and volunteers have been rescuing for many years and decided we should formalize our group so that we could ask for an adoption fee and fund raise to cover our expenses and help strays or abandoned animals with serious medical needs. We are all passionate about pets and our goal is to match the best home with the best animal.

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.
