Animal rescue in Aurora, IL

It’s All About The Paws, NFP is a 501(c)3 foundation that is dedicated to helping owner surrenders stay out of the shelter system through our Rehome Assistance Program in hopes to help make Chicago a no-kill city.

IAATP is dedicated to educating our community on animal advocacy, animal welfare, and anti-cruelty products. Part of our mission is to spread awareness for all animals on this planet. Spreading love, positivity, and intentional living is at the core of our foundation. We fight and stand by the ones who don’t have a voice, hoping that our mission reaches and changes the hearts and minds of many.
