Our focus is on cats, but we help any homeless, injured, or abused animal that we encounter.

Our priorities are to: Trap and transport cats to established TNR programs, return feral cats to their colonies, and provide food and winter shelters to caretakers. Care for feral cat colonies that do not have caregivers and for cats whose caregivers have moved, lost their homes, or have passed away; Arrange for foster care for socializing feral kittens and adoptable cats, with the goal of finding them permanent homes; Relocate feral cats in dangerous situations to safe areas. Assist any animal in an emergency situation or with a life-threatening medical condition and, if needed, contact an appropriate rescue group.

Happy Tails Animal Sanctuary started in 2009 by giving a second chance to those that would have otherwise not made it. Our program is unique in that each and every animal goes through a isolation process to ensure they get healthy to being rehabbed and trained prior to going home. While originally we started as a sanctuary, we expanded our program to adopt these fury creatures into their forever home!

We are Central Illinois Sheltie Rescue. We cover most of the Midwest. We take in any Sheltie regardless of age, condition, or health concern.

Established in 2005, CATsNAP is a non-profit, volunteer based group that seeks to reduce pet overpopulation and to improve the welfare of animals in the greater Champaign County Illinois area. We strongly advocate that animals are spayed or neutered regardless of breed, sex or age. Our program offers spay and neuter assistance and basic veterinary treatment - including flea and parasite treatment and routine vaccinations - to needy or unowned animals. We also provide humane education to community and civic groups on the care of animals and the importance of spaying/neutering in population control. We have a limited intake, no-kill adoption program. Most animals are transferred from municipal animal control facilities. All animals are in foster homes or at an off-site adoption partner site. Animals are never euthanized for space. At CATsNAP, our goal is to promote successful pet ownership and place animals in a loving, pet friendly home.

We are a small group of friends who love animals. Many of us are vegan - or on our way. We pull from high-kill shelters in our local area and also down south where they are most needy. We place our animals in foster homes and provide vetting and needed training before finding the perfect forever home. We hope to make a small dent in the world of animal welfare.
