Introducing our vision for 373 N. Quentin Road in Palatine.
We're looking to expand the Barb's Precious Rescue campus with a stunning second building, just two doors down from our main building at 313 N. Quentin Road.
The reward for doing good work is the opportunity to do more.
As we close out our 12th year, we're ready to expand.
Help us build the ultimate Home of Forever Homes.

Introducing the
David Helt
Veterinary Care Center
AT BARB'S PRECIOUS RESCUE
Animal shelters incur a lot of medical costs, especially when it comes to neutering and spaying.
That's why we are excited to announce the opening of the David Helt Veterinary Care Center within Barb's Precious Rescue. Thanks to your support, this new in-house facility enables us to deliver best-in-class care for our rescues, minimizes travels costs, and maximizes your donations to help cats and kittens.
Below is a video shot in February 2024 as we were building the Veterinary Care Center.

A big thank you to our incredible team of volunteers.
Only some are shown here, but their spirit is in everything we do.
They've saved countless lives, brought joy to families, and made the world a happier and better place.
They're all heroes. Without our volunteers, there would be no rescue.
