Every day we have more progress. Paint is going up, floors are being cleaned and it won’t be long we will be able to start using the building for different programs we have planed. Stay tuned to see and hear how we are saving animals in need or better yet, stop by to see the progress and have a chat.

At ARF, one of our biggest priorities is simply being able to answer the phone. 📞❤️
Even when we may not be able to take an animal in, we can often offer advice, share resources, or at the very least be a compassionate shoulder to lean on. Sometimes, that matters more than people realize. 🐾

This morning alone, between 7:00 and 9:00 AM, we received six calls. SIX. 😢

🐱 A young woman lost her job and is moving in with her boyfriend, whose parents are severely allergic to animals. She has contacted other rescues, but no one has been able to answer. Her only option may be surrendering her pet to Animal Control—but they cannot take the animal right away, so she is now facing boarding costs she cannot afford.

🐶 Two more calls involved families who simply can no longer keep their pets—one with two dogs and one with three cats. Unfortunately, we had no open space or resources to help.

🐱Someone texted asking us to take four kittens immediately. We had to say no because we already have 31 CATS in foster care. We hate having to say no, but our fosters and resources are stretched thin.

🐈 Another supporter called about a mama cat who gave birth two days ago and is not doing well. We sent them to other possible resources and asked them to call us back if those options do not work out.

🚫 Finally, we received a complaint from someone who was told that ARF will come out and “trap cats at your house for a price.” That is not true. We do not know who is spreading this misinformation, but please stop. It creates confusion and takes time away from animals who truly need help.

This is what it can look like to be a smaller, growing rescue: limited space, limited funds, overwhelmed fosters, and more need than we can possibly meet. Yet we keep answering because every call represents an animal—and a person—who needs someone to listen. ❤️🐾
If you can foster or share this post, or volunteer, please reach out. Your support helps us keep answering the phone. 🙏

Can anyone take on trying to save this kitten. Been out in cold and wet in a box crying for mom now for long enough. May need bottle feeding some.

Anyone out there have a nursing mother cat that may be able to take on two kittens a few days old?

We love it when we get reports of our previous fosters and how they’re doing. Elvira is growing up to be such a pretty lady with an ash color on her belly.

We are so excited. Paint is going up on the first three rooms.
