My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there! My name is Malibu and I'm part of the California litter. California? Did I come from CA? No, our Mommy's name is Cali(fornia) so that's how we got our names. We were born in our foster home on 2/21/2024. We are so lucky to be born in a warm, loving foster home vs a shelter. Our Mama took really good care of us, and she told us it's time for us to find our forever family because her days of taking care of us is over. I love to play - hello! I'm a puppy. I'm going to grow up to be a big girl. I already weigh 9#s at 9 weeks of age and Mama weighs 65#. We don't know who our Daddy is. I think he was just a boy from the neighborhood who came to visit one day. I am going to grow up to be a big girl and I can't wait to have a family of my own. My foster Mom tells us CA puppies that we better be extra cute for when our family's come look at us. I hope my family will teach me all the things' puppies need to learn. Walking on leash, potty training and puppy training! Can't wait to meet you! Love, Malibu Malibu and her siblings are located in our foster home in Aurora. To meet the puppies, please complete our adoption application at: https://treasuredanimalrescueinc.org/application-cat-adoption/ The puppies spay/neuter and future vaccines are covered by your adoption fee provided you go to our affliated vet. A TAR Volunteer will advise you and so it is beneficial if their new forever homes are within the reasonable distance of Aurora/Naperville. Sorry, Treasured Animal Rescue does not adopt out of the State of Illinois Thank you for choosing to adopt! Please visit our website www.treasuredanimalrescueinc.org to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

To get started in adopting: Please fill out our adoption application and after reviewing our foster family will set up a meet & greet; if applicable. An adoption application link can be found in each Treasured Gems (adoptable pets) profile.
• Spay/neuter before adoption. If under 16 weeks, it will be coordinated with Adoptive family at one of our Rescue affiliated Veterinarian clinics. Treasured Animal Rescue MUST spay/neuter within 30 days of adoption date per the State of Illinois Animal Welfare Act (25 ILCS 605 Section 25.140
• Microchip and registration with HomeAgain. TAR has registered all microchips for our adoptable’s, and family's will be given a transfer form.
• Initial de-worming, flea & tick prevention/treatment (see note below) and heart worm prevention
• Age-appropriate testing for heartworm/FIV-FELV
• Age-appropriate vaccines
• Wellness check exam
**Note on fleas** Those sneaky little critters can hitch a free ride into your home aboard another pet, person, or even rodent, so it is important to make sure your new pet is protected. Depending on the time frame your adoptable pet has been in our foster care it might have had just 1 dose – which is not enough. Please consult with your Vet on putting your new adoptable pet on yearly flea/tick prevention – even if they are an indoor pet.

Adoption fees:

Puppies/Dogs - $400
Seniors - $275

**Some dog breeds require additional vetting which leads to an adoption fee to not adhere to the pricing guideline above. There are many circumstances where an adoptable pet has an adoption fee that varies from above schedule due to their vetting needs while in our foster care.

Cats & Kittens - $150

**Treasured Animal Rescue highly recommends adopting kittens in pairs, to avoid any potential behavioral issues like biting, scratching and not using the litter box. Also, adopting 2 kittens lessens stress on the tiny kitten which provides a healthier transition. **

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

All our Treasured Gems are located in our foster homes. The location is noted in their individual profiles. We do not have a facility or shelter for meetings. Treasured Animal Rescue is not able to adopt out of the State of Illinois. Puppy/kitten adoptions must be close to our current Vet Clinics due to their spay/neutering. A Volunteer can advise of our Vet Clinic locations.

In each of our foster pets profiles it will state if they are good with dogs, cats or children. Please note what we experience in our foster home may differ completely in a potential Adopters homes. A TAR foster parent can give much insight on their foster pet as they live in their home just like their own pets.

We provide these unfortunate souls vet care while our Volunteers diligently search for their forever homes.

Treasured Animal Rescue is a “no-kill” Rescue and there are no limits to any breed, age or an animal’s health limitations. When an animal is in need of rescue; Treasured Animal Rescue is there to assist an animal in need or when a home owner faces the dilemma of giving up their beloved pet.

As our dedicated Volunteers search the endless paths at the shelters seeing the animals marked “URGENT”, some may see sadness, despair and hopelessness but Treasured Animal Rescue sees a “Diamond Soul”. We see an unfortunate soul that deserves a loving home and we will give that poor animal every opportunity to reach that destiny.

All animals deserve a loving home. We believe that underneath the sadness, despair and hopelessness; every animal has a "Diamond Soul" that is pure, beautiful and has an inward treasure. Treasured Animal Rescue helps all animals show the world the brilliance that shines from their loving souls.
