RESCUE.

Illinois Animal Rescue, Inc is made up of individuals, rescuers, transporters, humane investigators, a coalition of humane societies, and many others. We are just regular people, scattered throughout the state of Illinois and beyond, dedicated and working together to save these precious lives.

 IAR strives to rescue, transport and offer humane care to the animals in our communities throughout the state of Illinois and the surrounding states. 

We are Rescue…



Over the years, we have all saved thousands upon thousands of animals; in 2007 over 6,000 precious lives where saved from abandonment, neglect, abuse and unnecessary euthanasia. This was all accomplished through generous donations of volunteers. Costs are increasing, so we need to reach out to YOU, the community to help us fulfill our mission - the saving of the innocent lives. Illinois Animal Rescue, Inc. is a licensed,      501(c)(3), non profit and no kill rescue organization. 

Our goals are to ensure that every animal is treated with the respect that they deserve; to educate our communities on the importance of spaying or neutering their pets to solve the pet overpopulation problem; the humane treatment and care of all animals; to rescue the many animals that are serving life sentences in no-kill facilities due to the lack of education about rescue; and the rescue and transportation of the many animals that are being put to death in our communities every day through no fault of their own. The efforts of the coalition of rescuers, has saved over 6,000 lives in 2007.

The dogs and cats are so very appreciative of your support. Together we can save these forsaken, loving 'innocents' who are condemned to death.

Number of cats and dogs in 2007 that have been saved through Illinois Animal Rescue's Coalition: Over 6,000! 
We are so very appreciative of your support, and we will continue to grow our network bigger and better in 2008. In the coming year, we will continue our goal to rescue every single animal in Illinois, gain exposure for the pounds in need and develop good relationships with only the best rescues that meet our criteria.

I Am An Animal Rescuer



My job is to assist God's creatures
I was born with the drive to fulfill their needs

I take in helpless, unwanted, homeless
creatures without planning or selection                                  

I have bought dog food with my last dime
I have patted a mangy head with a bare hand
I have hugged someone vicious and afraid

I have fallen in love a thousand times
And I have cried into the fur of a lifeless body too many times to count


I have animal friends and friends who have animal friends
I don't often use the word "pet"

I notice those lost at the road side

And my heart aches       

I will hand raise a field mouse

                   

And make friends with a vulture
I know of no creature unworthy of my time   

I want to live forever if there aren't any animals in Heaven

But I believe there are          
Why would God make something so perfect and leave it behind

Some may think we are master of the animals
But the animals have mastered themselves

Something people still haven't learned 
War and abuse make me hurt for the world

But a rescue that makes the news gives me hope for mankind



We are a quiet but determined army

And we are making   a difference every day

There is nothing more necessary than warming an orphan
Nothing more rewarding than saving a life
No higher recognition than watching them thrive

There is no greater joy than seeing a baby play
Who only days ago, was too weak to eat

By the love of those who I've been privileged to rescue
I have been rescued

I know what true unconditional love really is
For I've seen it shining in the eyes of so many
Grateful for so little

I am an Animal Rescuer
My work is never done
My home is never quiet
My wallet is always empty
But my heart is always full
