Piatt County Animal Control

Gives dogs and cats in Champaign County who are stray, unwanted, or owner-rendered temporary housing and care. The Prairieland Anti-Cruelty Spay may also provide a wide range of further services.

CATsNAP was founded in 2005 with the intention of reducing pet overpopulation and enhancing animal welfare in the broader Champaign County, Illinois area. Particularly, we fervently support spaying and neutering for all animals, regardless of breed, sex, or age. Spaying and neutering helps to decrease the number of cats and dogs who are born into neglectful and abusive environments.

This facility houses all animals seized as strays or impounded in the unincorporated areas of the County, in municipalities that have an animal control service agreement with the County, and in the Cities of Champaign and Urbana.

To stop animal abuse, promote animal welfare, educate the public about how to treat animals humanely, raise awareness of the problem of companion animal overpopulation and offer solutions, and provide high-quality care, shelter, and adoption services for animals as needed.

In order to find homes for the hundreds of stray and surrendered animals who enter our facility each year, we also put animals up for adoption.

To alleviate suffering in animals, to stop animal cruelty, to help with animal placement, to encourage spaying and neutering, and to educate the public about how to treat animals humanely.
