Lovin' Life Rescue

About

Lovin' Life Rescue is a young, non-profit, 501(c)(3), companion animal rescue organization with a no-kill policy. United and inspired by our compassion for all animals, we focus our talents and previous rescue experience on saving dogs and cats in Chicago that are homeless, neglected, abused, or destined to be euthanized. In addition to supporting and participating in spaying & neutering, our contribution to helping make Chicago a No-Kill city is to educate the community with the simple mantra that “Pets Are Family”.

Adoption process

The Adoption Process: Fill out our adoption application. This helps us understand more about you and your lifestyle. (NOTE: Applications will not be considered if not complete / every question is answered. A completed application does not mean it will be approved. You will hear from us only if you are being considered as a potential candidate.). You must be at least 24 years of age with proper proof of age. Current identification must show your correct address and phone number. You must provide a landlord's phone number or a copy of your lease if you rent. You must also provide proof of weight/breed restrictions for your apartment or condo. Be contacted by a Lovin' Life Rescue representative. This can include (but is not limited to) a telephone interview and/or a face-to-face meeting. Home visits are part of the screening process. We would bring your potential new canine family member along to see how you both interact together in your home environment. We would not bring your potential new feline family member along, but do want to ensure that your home is safe and "cat proof". The requested adoption donation varies (depending on age, medical care, etc.). It starts at $350.00 for dogs / puppies and it starts at $200.00 for cats / kittens. Under certain circumstances, the adoption fee can be waived or negotiated at our discretion. We have a "Seniors for Seniors" program in which we offer a discounted adoption donation to anyone over the age of 65 who wants to adopt one of our senior cats or dogs (10 years and up). Training is MANDATORY for ALL of our adopted dogs / puppies. They are required to be registered for an obedience training class with a Behaviorist (not just a Trainer) within 2 weeks of adoption and must complete that class within 3 months of adoption. There is a $50.00 Training Deposit that is refunded after completion of the obedience training class with a Behaviorist. Sign a legally binding adoption contract.
