Starlight's Story

A Shy Beauty Ready to Shine! Starlight is a young girl with bright, soulful eyes that practically glow. She was recently surrendered when her owner had to move, and sadly, we weren’t given much information about her past. Here in the shelter, she’s been timid and unsure — the world has changed very quickly for her. But even in her nervousness, we can see it: Starlight has a wonderfully sweet, tender side waiting to come out. With patience, kindness, and a safe place to settle, this quiet little star will absolutely begin to sparkle. If you’re looking to give a gentle heart a fresh start, Starlight is waiting for someone just like you. If interested in adopting, EMAIL: animalcontrol@whitesidehealth.org to request an adoption application! If you see an animal you are interested in adopting, and it is not fixed/vaccinated, please do not be discouraged, we generally can cover these costs! This can all be discussed during the time or your meet and greet if approved to adopt!

Whiteside County Animal Control's Adoption Policy

Application for Adoption Only persons interested in specific animals in the Adoption Center will be permitted to complete an application. Forms must be filled out completely or the application will be denied. Anyone interested in an animal different than the animals in the Adoption Center will be placed on a list for future animals matching their request. The following are reasons for denial of the application to adopt: 1) person having been investigated for abuse towards an animal and evidence has been found to support the allegation; 2) person’s present dog does not have current rabies vaccination and registration; 3) person not at least 18 years old, or 4) person making an omission or false statement on the application. The applicant must be able to give the animal proper veterinarian care including, but not limited to, rabies vaccination and county registration. The applicant must also be able to provide the animal with adequate and sufficient food and water along with the proper shelter if left outside even for a short period of time (applicant cannot intend to keep animal outside). No one under the age of 18 will be allowed to enter the Adoption Center unless accompanied by their parent(s) or legal guardian. Anyone adopting a dog currently vaccinated against rabies who resides in Whiteside County must pay the county registration at time of adoption. If the dog is not vaccinated against rabies at the time of adoption, the Adopter must sign an agreement to transport the dog to a veterinarian and have the dog vaccinated against rabies within a specified time period. The Adopter will be given a list of participating veterinarian clinics that collect the registration fee at time of rabies vaccination. A Whiteside County tag will be issued. Anyone who lives outside Whiteside County will be advised to contact their local Animal Control for instructions on how to register their dog. Once the person has chosen an animal, an application will be completed. The applicant must provide the following; 1) copy of their Driver’s License or Photo ID, 2) proof of residency, 3) letters from DHS or SS if the applicant is on Link, Social Security or Medicare, and, 4) two references, and 5) if the applicant rents, a letter from their landlord will be required. Animal Control staff will have three business days to process an application and make a determination on the outcome of the application. The applicant will be notified by a phone call.
