Grooming Update
Embrace the change in 2023 with our new grooming schedule!
Sarah & Paul will continue grooming on the first Saturday of every other month (January, March, May, ...) from 12:00 – 2:30 PM, just as you're accustomed to.
In September 2023, grooming will be on the third Saturday of the month, specifically on September 16, 2023.
On the first Sunday of alternate months (February, April, June, ...), Cassie will take over-grooming duties from 12:00 – 2:30 PM. During these grooming Sundays, the Center for Animal Rehabilitation & Education, Inc. will be open exclusively for grooming and retail from 12:00 – 2:30 PM (the aviary will remain closed to the public).
We're excited to extend our grooming services to you on Sundays!
Pet Welfare Organization in Wisconsin and Illinois
The Center for Animal Rehabilitation & Education, Inc. (C.A.R.E., Inc.) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal welfare organization whose mission is to provide for, through advocacy and activism, the needs of all exotic birds, elder dogs, and small animals. We educate the public about the needs of exotic birds, elder dogs, and small animals. The Center for Animal Rehabilitation & Education, Inc. provides permanent housing for any exotic birds not able to live in a typical home environment, excluding birds with contagious diseases. Our goal is to find a loving, responsible, permanent home for adoptable birds, dogs, and small animals.

Important Notice
Only individuals with approved adoption applications and current volunteers are permitted to handle our birds, even through the cage bars. Ensuring the safety of our birds is our utmost priority, and failure to comply with our policies may result in being asked to leave.
Adoption, foster, and volunteer applications must now be completed online. Upon receipt, all applications will be reviewed within one week. If approved, one of our Adoption Coordinators will reach out to schedule a meet-and-greet appointment with the suitable bird(s)/dog(s)/small animal(s). This change enables us to assign you a dedicated Adoption Coordinator who will assist you in finding the perfect family member. They will ensure all your questions are addressed before committing to a new pet. Your Adoption Coordinator can also assist in selecting a cage, perches, toys, and pet food during your appointment. We adopted this model during Safer at Home and firmly believe it's the most effective way to serve you and match our animals with their forever home.
