We are a self funded governmental agency catering to the many stray, abandoned, neglected and needy pets within Kankakee County. We are committed to educating the public on animal welfare & care including necessity of vaccinating, microchips and spay/neuter to reduce pet over-population.
Many of these animals come to us as strays or their owners refuse to care for them. We work very hard with very limited resources to provide these animals with all they need and to find them new, loving and permanent homes.
Create an alert, and we'll notify you every time a new pet comes in who meets your criteria.
