Fred (a rescue from ARF), now named Asa,
enjoys his new life! Doesn't he look happy?!
This is what it's all about...
BUCKY, DUM DUM AND PHOENIX are all about 3 years old and need a Foster or Forever home by Feb. 8, 2015. Their folks have lost their home and can't keep them. They were rescued from an elderly woman who had passed away and her son was abusing them. They are all very sweet and loving and will be a wonderful addition to your family! Please contact ARF if you are able to Foster or Adopt them before Feb. 8, 2015.
Dog of the Month Cat of the Month
This is Wuppie & Sasha, their person unexpectedly passed away recently and they need a foster or forever home together.
The Shepherd is Sasha, and the other is Wuppie. They are very sweet doggies, and love each other and want to stay together. |

CLAUDE
In March of 2013, Claude's owner, an elderly woman who lived alone, died. She left he and two dogs homeless. One dog died, the other was adopted, but Claude was left with neither owner nor home. His owner's heir said that Claude should be euthanized, but we, being friends of his late owner, couldn't see this lively cat killed...! ***See the rest of Claude's story on the Assisted Adoption page... |
A little bit about
Animal Rescue Friends of Idyllwild (ARF)
Animal Rescue Friends of Idyllwild (ARF)
WELCOME! to the ARF House, the little rescue with the big heart, home of love and second chances.
We are located in the mountain village of Idyllwild, CA where we have been serving the community since 1994. A volunteer, grassroots, non-profit organization, ARF’s mission is to rescue animals that have been abandoned, lost, or whose owners are no longer able to care for them. We provide foster care until forever homes are located. Our animals are spay/neutered, receive necessary shots and other veterinary care as needed.
Each year, relying only on the generosity of donors and small grants, ARF helps an increasing number of dogs and cats, turning sad stories into happy tails. In 2012 to date: 87 dogs and cats have been taken in; 59 adoptions; spay/neuters 50; average found and reunited pets, 2-3 a week
(5 animals found and reunited the week of October 15th). Since reopening in February 2012, Sadie’s Clinic has seen 480 animals.
ARF works to educate our population about the importance of responsible pet ownership, including the need for spay/neuter and heart worm disease prevention.
Please won’t you join us in our efforts to improve the welfare of our loyal companions? Spend a little time to look around our website, visit the dogs and cats available for adoption, and find out how you can become involved. It has been said that a society is judged by how it treats the "least" of its members. They bring so much joy while asking so little in return. They depend on us…on you.
