Meet fabulous Mino 🐈

Cruelly abandoned in a garage with a nasty gash on her leg, Mino was not in the best shape when she was rescued. But this beauty with piercing eyes and a coat as lush and soft as it can get not only bounced back, but did so with style!

This stunning feline is the epitome of a lap cat, a professional in the fine art of getting cozy. The moment she settles in, consider yourself officially stuck (not that you’ll mind). Whether you’re a grown-up or a tiny human, if you have a lap, she will claim it and, from it, she will keep a watchful eye from her warm perch 😻

Mino moves through life with the grace of an atelier model. She’s got a slow, confident sashay, and knows very well that she’s a stunner. She knows it, you know it—let’s not pretend otherwise. A true lap cat with a penchant for luxury, she enjoys the finer things in life: meticulous self-grooming, sunbathing like a seasoned vacationer, and, of course, being adored 🫶🏽

Mino coexists with other cats, but her only love will always be to her human. As long as no other cat dares approach the parameter during “lap time,” peace will prevail.

If you’re looking for a laid back, affectionate, and slightly diva-esque companion who will happily take over your lap (and your heart), Mino is your girl ❤️

Please DM for more details 🐾

Help with vet bills please 🙏🏽

Wiki suffered from a severe and deep ear infection that caused her alot of pain and threatened her hearing/balance. We rushed her to the vet once we noticed the infection and realized the severity of her condition. Thanks to immediate and thorough medical attention, Wiki recovered and is back in the shelter with no permanent complications 👏🏽

Naomi contracted a respiratory infection and needed hospitalization to treat the infection and receive much needed dental work. She regained her strength after the treatment and is happily back in the shelter with her friends 🫶🏽

We still have outstanding balance of BD 191 for Bruno’s bill. Please help us cover these bills by donating directly to the clinic on their benefitpay +973 3368 9990 and sending us a screenshot. Your contributions is the only way we can keep going 🤞🏽

Our weekly campaign to spread some virtual gratitude; to our fantastic fosters, who foster cats, dogs (or even both!) is here 🙌🏽

This week our Foster Friday goes to Danielle who is fostering Bruno 🐈

Bruno has been with us for a few years. The stressful environment of the shelter always had him on edge. He was shy and timid and kept to himself for the most part 🥺

Recently, Bruno’s health deteriorated and he was losing weight. He was battling with anemia and entering early stage of kidney disease. Immediate and consistent medical treatment helped alot but Bruno needed a calm home environment to truly recover ❤️‍🩹

Danielle stepped up to foster Bruno to provide him with the love and comfort he needed to continue to improve 🤞🏽

His time with Danielle has made all the difference for Bruno. He was finally mentally strong enough to truly focus on his physical recovery. Bruno is slowly but surely coming out of his shell and continues to get stronger everyday thanks to Danielle’s love and dedication to his care ❤️

We cannot stress enough how life saving and amazing fostering is. Animals are often too young to join the shelter or need special care and love (especially in medical cases like Bruno) to transition into life as a family pet that only a foster home can provide 💙

Overall: BARC and Bruno are furever grateful to you Danielle. Thank you!

Lastly, becoming a foster at BARC has never been easier. DM us or visit our website www.visitbarc.com for more information 🐾

Much respect to the volunteers from the American Coast Guard for taking the time to help out in the shelter. From walking dogs and socializing with cats, to physical jobs like helping us deep clean the kennel walls and filling holes in the communal yard 👏🏽❤️🐶😻

Thank you so much little Janna for this beautiful drawing of the puppies to help get them adopted 🥹❤️🫶🏽

Meet adoptable Mila 👋🏼

Mila spent her early life struggling to survive the harsh streets of Bahrain. One day her quest to find food lead to tragedy when she was hit by a speeding car 💔

Mila was one of the few lucky strays who were rescued before it was too late. Unfortunately, her leg was beyond saving and had to be amputated to save her life 😭

Mila was such a good girl throughout her ordeal and overcame all the obstacles that were thrown her way 👏🏽

This beautiful 2 year old sweetheart had adapted to being a tripod like a champ. Mila loves her walks with volunteers and she lives kids. She is playful and great with other dogs and cannot wait to have a family and a home of her own 🥹

Please DM for more details if you can give Mila the home she deserves ❤️

Help with vet bills please 🙏🏽

Jack got his leg tangled up in the bottom of the gate and it resulted in deep painful lacerations. He also developed a respiratory infection and as a senior dog, we had to be very careful and run all diagnostics to make sure he gets the proper medical care. Quick intervention allowed him to be out of pain and recover from his wounds and infection 👏🏽

Bruno was losing weight despite all our efforts to help. Thorough diagnostics revealed that he was suffering from early stages of renal disease. Thanks to the early intervention we were able to help Bruno by starting the proper treatment and putting him on renal diet. Being in foster care has helped him immensely and our hope is that he will make a full recovery ❤️‍🩹

Cheeky suffered from an oral infection and needed dental work with extractions to be able to eat comfortably and avoid future complications 👍🏽

Please help us cover their bills so we can continue providing our animals with the medical care they deserve. Please send your contribution to the clinic benefitpay +973 3368 9990 directly and share a screenshot with us 🐾

Foster Friday is back!

Our weekly campaign to spread some virtual gratitude; to our fantastic fosters, who foster cats, dogs (or even both!) is here 🙌🏽

This week our Foster Friday goes to Rebecca who is fostering Dewey 🐶

Dewey was rescued with her siblings when they were just pups. She grew up in the shelter into a beautiful happy girl. Dewey always loved people and is never happier than when she’s around humans and getting love and attention 🥹

Rebecca and her daughter fell in love with her sweet nature when they met her at the shelter and offered to foster Dewey to prepare her for the next chapter of her life 👏🏽

Once in their care and after meeting their dog, Dewey settled right in and absolutely loves lounging on soft surfaces and having her fill of cuddles ❤️

Her time in foster care allowed Dewey the chance to learn all the firsts associated with being in a loving home. It has given her the best chance at a successful adoption once she gets on her freedom flight ✈️

We cannot stress enough how life saving and amazing fostering is. Animals are often too young to join the shelter or need special care and love to transition into life as a family pet that only a foster home can provide 💙

Overall: BARC and Dewey are furever grateful to you Rebecca. Thank you!

Help with vet bills please 🙏🏽

Minnie and Bodie suffered from painful ear hematomas. They are often the result of ear infections or trauma (fighting). Once developed, they urgently need surgical intervention to drain them and reconstruct the area properly. Both Minnie and Bodie received the necessary treatment asap and were able to make a speedy and full recovery ❤️‍🩹

We also still need BD 95 to cover Dewey’s last invoice at the vet 😢

Please help us cover these bills by donating directly to their benefitpay +973 3368 9990 and sending us a screenshot 🫶🏽

We found her!

Thanks to her dedicated foster for looking all morning and all the volunteers who helped search (Bluebell climbed a high gate door that non of us thought she could get through)

We’re so grateful she’s back safely (she won’t be out in the garden again without constant supervision 😅)

Bluebell went missing in Saar area this morning. Please keep a look out for her and let us know if you spot her 🙏🏽
