Rescue FAQs

Michele's Rescue is a 501c3 non profit rescue as of Sept. 2009! I have been doing rescue as early as 1997 and have found my place in life with animals and animal rescue. Michele's Rescue is currently adopting kittens, cats, puppies, dogs and some small animals in need of placement of permanent homes. I help other rescues with overflow and fostering as well as transporting of animals from shelters to breed specific rescues. Michele's Rescue has several volunteers who help with adoptions at Petsmart due to the overpopulation in West Michigan. I am also proud to say that I am the founder of the West Michigan Spay and Neuter Clinic in Fruitport, Michigan! If you have any questions you can contact me here michelesrescue.com, michele_m_barnes@yahoo.com. We are also on Facebook! Come visit our fan page!!
We will try to help any animal in the United States whether it be adoption, rescue or transportation. A beating heart is a beating heart no matter where that heart is. We love all animals. If you are looking for something specific, let us know! We will try to find a rescue for you! Thank You for rescuing an animal that truly needs a home and not buying..We also Do a foster to adopt program. This includes being preapproved for the animal of your choice fostering that animal until adoption day which is directly after our vet approves the animal to go home after spay and neuter. Plrase spay and neuter.
