Happy holidays with pets

Recently we shared a letter explaining the unfortunate “surprise” issue with our new building project.  A very expensive sprinkler system got added at the last minute to our budget.

Ark Animal Sanctuary – Week of December 20, 2023

For weeks we have seen this cat on our cameras out in the bitter cold. For weeks we have left food out for her. She would come twice a day most every day. She would appear on the cameras at 3 in the morning and then at different times during the day and always disappear into the trailer park across the road. It was clear that she was not being taken care of or fed.

PAWS Pet of the Week – Brownie

This long, lean and handsome kitty was a stray. His green eyes demand your attention as do his unique markings. Brownie has many features of an Abyssinian, with the muscular build and wild look almost as if he just wandered in from the jungle.

Mischief never met a person he didn’t like. He is very talkative, too; he initiates many conversations and greets people.

Cherish is about 3 years old and delivered kittens when she first came to the shelter. The kittens found homes quickly. Now it is her time to shine.

When pets outlive us

What happens to your beloved pet if he outlives you?  Discussing death, whether yours or a pet’s, is not pleasant.

The past few weeks we have once again rearranged the sanctuary trying to utilize every square inch of space. We have had large crates donated to accommodate the influx of cats. We are now officially out of space.

Ark Animal Sanctuary – Week of November 15, 2023

As we brace ourselves for the holiday season and the cold winter months, the phone does not stop ringing.  There are people wanting to surrender their pets, strays being picked up and brought to the sanctuary, kittens being pulled out of Dumpsters, people moving and leaving their pets behind.
