"The ARK will begin in earnest on or about January 1st. We’re working through lots of the logistical issues... bringing in hundreds of animals, all shapes and sizes, all different kinds of medical conditions and many under legal constraints that will guide the duration of their stay with us is going to require some very close internal coordination.

We’ll get it done.

But we could not have arrived at this point without the wonderful donors who have stepped towards this huge need.

Thank you... to 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐏𝐀𝐂𝐂 and to 𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐭 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 for their help in addressing this monumental community need."

We are truly honored to have been able to support such a meaningful cause.

At the inaugural Fur Ball, the Scarritt Foundation proudly donated $50,000 to Friends of PACC, helping provide care and hope to the animals.🐾

Our mission has always been rooted in compassion and community — and this partnership reflects exactly that. Together, we’re making a difference for hundreds of animals across Pima County.

Thank you, PACC, for the incredible work you do every day!

At its inaugural Fur Ball last weekend, the Scarritt Foundation made a lifesaving $50,000 donation to Friends of PACC. This generous gift supports PACC’s innovative efforts to assist at-risk pets whose caretakers are overwhelmed. The donation will help create positive outcomes for hundreds of animals living in challenging circumstances. Thank you to the Scarritt Foundation for being a true champion for these animals!⁠

A Fur Ball Featured Auction Item!

Timeless beauty meets storied history in this exquisite vintage diamond ring, lovingly owned and worn for more than two decades.

Originally purchased in 1987 by Bonnie Kay from an antique jewelry store just outside Philadelphia, the piece carries elegance, legacy and good karma.

The shop's owner had discovered the ring at an estate sale, where its
craftsmanship and quiet sparkle spoke of another era's sophistication.
