Send a Valentine That Saves Lives

Valentine’s Day is all about love—and this year, Chicagoland Animal Rescue is making it extra meaningful. Instead of traditional flowers or candy, you can send a one-of-a-kind Valentine created by one of our current adoptable cats while directly supporting rescue efforts right here in the Chicagoland area.

What Are Chicagoland Animal Rescue Valentines?

Our Valentine’s Day fundraiser features personalized Valentines starring our adoptable cats. Each Valentine is made with love and customized just for your recipient, making it a fun, heartfelt, and impactful way to celebrate the holiday.

Whether you’re sending love to a partner, friend, family member, coworker, or fellow cat lover, these Valentines are guaranteed to make them smile—while helping cats in need.

Why Send a Chicagoland Animal Rescue Valentine?

100% of every Valentine purchased directly supports Chicagoland Animal Rescue and helps us continue our mission to save cats in need. Funds raised go toward:

  • Veterinary care and medical treatment

  • Food, litter, and daily supplies

  • Foster care and safe housing

  • Preparing cats for adoption into loving forever homes

Your Valentine isn’t just a card—it’s a small act of love that makes a big difference.

Valentine Options

We offer two Valentine formats so you can choose what works best for you:

  • $6 Digital Valentine – A personalized digital card featuring one of our adoptable cats, delivered electronically via email and perfect for last-minute gifting. These can be ordered until February 13th!

  • $10 Mailed Postcard Valentine – A personalized, printed postcard-style Valentine sent by mail, featuring an adoptable cat. To allow for delivery time, please order by February 10th.

Choosing Your Valentine

Each Valentine features a real cat currently available for adoption through Chicagoland Animal Rescue. By purchasing a Valentine, you’re also helping showcase our adoptable cats and share their stories with a wider audience—one step closer to finding their forever homes.

For 2026, we are now offering sweet Valentines as well as sassy Valentines. As we’ve done every year, the full designs will be kept secret, with some sneak peaks available throughout the fundraiser on our social media pages.

To help you choose which cat to send, we’ve included a guide below:
