Fresh Start Animal Rescue

The flooding across the Midwest has created a crisis for the animals who had homes, as well as the average homeless numbers. Here at Fresh Start we are doing all we can to help the victims of the flooding, including trying to save as many pets as we can. If you are looking for a new addition we just may have what you're looking for, or will soon be rescuing it from the flooded areas!

Meet Happy. When we learned she was dumped at a high kill shelter with a litter of puppies we knew we had to save her. The poor girl wishes she really was happy, of course the pups were adopted quickly, and she's been left behind waiting her turn. This young lab mix loves other dogs, and after the abuse she must have suffered she takes a little time to trust people. One of the many sad cases we see at the shelter unfortunately, but this girl is ready for a brighter future, won't you come meet her?


Our Featured Cat...

Meet Cash! This young man is as handsome as they come. Imagine coming home after a long workday and snuggling up to this gorgeous guy with shiny jet black hair and dreamy golden eyes, just to add to his charms he purrs a nice tune to relax you! Cash is all kitten when it comes to a ball with a bell in it, he IS going to chase it, and maybe, if he's "in the mood", he just might bring it over to you to share! Come meet Cash today, you just may find you're "perfect playmate" in him!

News
It's been two years since we've opened and we've helped many animals so far. Our goal is to help even more this year! We are always in need of donations. On an average day we go through 10-14 rolls of paper towels, every donated roll helps! We thank everyone who has helped us and those who continue to help us.
Who We Are
We are a Illinois State Licensed, Non-For-Profit, No-Kill Animal Rescue. We work rural high kill shelters and animal control facilities where animals do not have much of a chance to find a home.
Adopting a friend
The first step to our adoption process is the application. You can access the on-line application below by clicking on it. Just answer the questions and submit it back to us.
We will try to contact you within 2 days to go through the application and answer any additional questions you have regarding the animal you have inquired about.
