CHAMPAIGN, IL (Chambana Today) – Illini Media Group looks forward to welcoming Moore’s Rescue Ranch to the studio every Thursday morning. Our friends at Moore’s, Kim and Donna, are busy pulling animals from animal control today, so we are leaving them alone – just for one week.

This week, we shine a spotlight on another one of our favorite rescues, CATSNAP. CATSNAP is thrilled to announce the return of its kitten adoption open houses this Saturday. If you’re ready to add a furry friend to your family, now’s the perfect time to meet some of their adorable 3-month-old kittens. The event will be held from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. at 1713 South State Street, Suite 104 in Champaign. RSVP is required to attend the open house. You can sign up here: https://forms.gle/77ZGgW5jcPBEMfMs5

Thanks to our friends at Hoveln Heating & Cooling, Inc., we are able to help find homes for cats and dogs every week. Check-out Duane Shannon and the WIXY Facebook feed every Thursday morning for the latest video.
