Meet Alice. 💛

Alice was surrendered to a local county shelter because of her medical issues. In a crowded shelter, a sick cat’s odds aren’t good. So we stepped in. 🐾

This is what rescue means to us. We aren’t pest control, and we aren’t a clean-up crew for when pet ownership gets inconvenient. Our mission is to pull cats who are at real risk of dying in a shelter, because of space or because of medical needs, and give them a second chance. That’s true rescue. 🙌

Alice is exactly why we do this. 🩺 We’ve already found the cause of one of her chronic health problems: an intestinal parasite she’s likely been living with for years. Now that it’s being treated, she’s already starting to feel better! 🎉

She still has a long road ahead, with lots of vet visits and medications. But through all of it, Alice has stayed one of the sweetest cats you’ll ever meet. 🥰

With your help, we can get Alice healthy, happy, and ready for her forever home. 🏡 Please consider a gift to our 2026 campaign to support Alice’s physical and emotional journey to wellness.

💗 “Do all the good you can…” 💗

Some days the problem feels too big. Shelters are full. Kittens keep coming. Families are choosing between feeding themselves and feeding their pets. Euthanasia lists grow longer every week. 😔

It’s easy to feel like nothing you do could possibly make a difference.

But here’s what we’ve learned in more almost 25 years of rescue: no one can do everything, but everyone can do something. 🐾 And every something adds up.

✨ ADOPT — Give a rescued cat a forever home and open a spot for the next one.
👉 aarfatlanta.org/pet-adoptions

🏡 FOSTER — Lend your home for a few weeks and save a life (kittens especially need you!).
👉 aarfatlanta.org/foster-info

🙌 VOLUNTEER — Socialize cats, help at pantry day, trap and transport community cats.
👉 aarfatlanta.org

💝 DONATE — Every dollar helps feed, vaccinate and fix the pets in our community.
👉 givebutter.com/giving-tuesday-AARF-2026

🥫 GIVE FOOD — Shop our pantry wish lists:
👉 Amazon: a.co/06FIQrfk
👉 Chewy: chewy.com/g/atlanta-animal-rescue-friends_b151642564

Do the good you can, where you can, for as long as you can. Together, we’re creating a community where every pet matters. 💕

Hi from Banjo and Kazooie

11/05/2026

🥫 On the first Tuesday of every month, our Stone Mountain neighbors pick up pet food at AARF — enough to last the whole month.

That's 500+ family pets and community cats who don't go hungry because neighbors showed up for neighbors. 💛

In 2027, we're hoping to expand to more zip codes to double our reach. Your gift keeps those bowls full. 🐶🐱

Today’s Pet Food Pantry pick-up cleared us out completely. Every bag and every can went home with a family who needed it 🐶🐱 And now our shelves are bare.

Our next pick-up is Tuesday, December 1, and we need to start refilling NOW so every neighbor’s pet has a full bowl heading into the holidays 🎄🐾

Here’s how you can help:

🥫 Drop off food at AARF Pet Central, 951 Main St, Stone Mountain Village
🛒 Shop online at aarfpetcentral.com and add a note that it’s for the Pet Food Pantry. One purchase, double the good: it supports our store AND stocks the pantry! 🙌
🎁 Amazon Wish List: 👉 a.co/06FIQrfk
🐾 Chewy Wish List: 👉 chewy.com/g/atlanta-animal-rescue-friends_b151642564
💝 Donate funds directly: 👉 givebutter.com/AARFPetFoodPantry

Our pantry feeds 500+ family pets and community cats every month, so no one has to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pet. Dry and canned food for both dogs and cats are needed! 🧡
