Just Animals is a no-kill, non-profit shelter run by our Director, Brenda Leake and a group of dedicated volunteers. All of our funding comes from donations and fundraisers. We take in hundreds of stray, abused, neglected, and owner surrendered animals every year. Our goal is to provide the best medical and emotional care to mend their broken bodies and spirits; and when they are ready, offer them for adoption to a safe, permanent, loving indoor home. All pets are vet checked, spayed/neutered, micro-chipped, vaccinated, and dewormed. Cats are tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV, and dogs are Heartworm tested and either treated or put on preventative medication
We have been serving LaSalle County since 1997 and have saved thousands of cats and dogs from a sad uncertain ending. Won't you choose a local shelter for your next dog and cat, we all work together to improve their lives and find loving forever homes. We have placed 325 cats & dogs in 2008 alone. 2009 was a record year - 475 dogs, puppies, cats & kittens have found their way to their 'forever homes'. That's an amazing number!!!

Wonderful place for cats to temporarily stay with care. However- they do not wish to answer questions and simply say that petsmart folks can do that. When a petsmart employee cant even pick up a cat- and when i have to explain the paperwork- it does give me doubt.

Just with my case, lack of communication. This is with microchipping. This shelter does not answer fb in a timely manner, and when they do it is only a yes/no with no explanation like other shelters in the area like ADOPT or Ottawa Vet Hospital.
