Meet Ace, our sweet 5-year-old who desperately needs a loving home. Found wandering the wilds of Point Arena, Ace was thrilled to be brought indoors. However, the Kitty Cottage has not been the best environment for him—he's been a little stressed out, picked on by other cats, and not eating well. Because of this, he's now in our medical room in isolation.

Ace is a mellow boy who loves attention and can be playful when he’s not napping. He’s been through a lot and really deserves a peaceful, loving home where he can relax and be his wonderful self.

If you have space in your heart and home, please consider giving Ace the chance he needs. Let’s get this sweet kitty out of isolation and into a forever home! 🐾💙

📣 Adoption Update on Moo previously known as Yosemite!

This is what his adopters have to say about him: We are so in love with Moo! Things are going so well!. Moo is the sweetest boy and loves to cuddle up on the couch with us! He has settled in great and loves being at home. We’re still working to show him that the world isn’t so scary. He comes along with us everywhere we go: breweries, BBQs, and road trips to visit friends! He takes a minute to warm up to new people, but once you’re in with Moo, you’re a forever friend!”

🐾 Happy International Dog Day! 🐾

Today, we’re celebrating all the incredible dogs that bring so much joy, love, and adventure into our lives. Whether they’re your loyal companion, a snuggle buddy, or the playful spirit that keeps you on your toes, dogs make our world a better place.

To all the dog lovers out there, give your furry friend an extra treat, a long walk, and lots of belly rubs today! And if you’re looking to add a new member to your pack, we’ve got some amazing dogs waiting for their forever homes.

Adopt Honey! 🍯

Honey has been waiting to get adopted for over a month now. She was found wandering the old Surfwood in Mendocino. This sweet girl has quickly won our hearts with her friendly and playful personality. Honey loves meeting new people and is always eager to make new friends. She’s also a bundle of energy who enjoys playing in the yard with her pals.

Honey would thrive in an active household where she can burn off all that energy and stay happy and healthy. We’re still learning more about this beautiful girl, but one thing is clear—she’s ready to find her forever home!

If you think Honey could be the perfect addition to your family, come meet her today! 🐶💛

Sweet Nino arrived with his best friend Tommy when their owner could no longer care for them. These lifelong buddies would love to stay together if possible. Nino, a handsome buff tabby, is a curious and friendly guy who enjoys meeting new people and quickly warms up to attention. Give these two pals the loving home they deserve!

Mojo would likely be a good fit for a calm and quiet household, especially one where one or more people are home a lot so she can get more comfortable with humans. She would also love open rafters, a cat tree, or something else fun to climb and stake out her safe spot.

08/23/2024

Stevie came to us as a bottle baby in September 2022 and has spent his whole life in the shelter. We're hoping 2024 is his chance to find a forever home!

We recommend a slow introduction to Stevie to give him a chance to get to know you, but he is very affectionate with his favorite people and has been known to be a big-time snuggler. He's selective with other dogs, and would need a careful meet and greet here at the shelter with any potential canine housemates, in addition to a slow, gentle introduction when he gets home.

He would do best with an experienced handler who can work with him on manners and adjusting to life in the outside world. Our dog walkers report that he can be quite strong on the leash and would not be a good fit for homes with young children or cats.

We’ve got an adorable bunch of mixed-breed puppies who are ready to find their forever homes! While we don’t know their exact breeds, one thing is for sure—these pups are going to be on the larger side when they’re all grown up. If you’re looking for a new best friend, come meet them and see if one of these cuties steals your heart. They’re eager to find their new homes!

Meet our Cat of the Week: Taco! 🤍 Taco came to us with her tiny kittens, and one by one, they all found loving homes. But now, it’s just Taco, waiting and wondering when it will be her turn. At only 1.5 years old, she’s still young, with so much love to give. She’s a sweet, gentle soul who has watched her babies grow and leave, yet no one has chosen her. For 80 days, Taco has been waiting patiently, hoping that someone will see the love she has to offer. Could you be the one to bring Taco home and give her the happy ending she deserves?

🌟 Adopt Kiki! 🌟 This sweet and curious little kitty may be shy at first, but with a bit of patience and some tasty treats, she'll slowly start to come out of her shell. 🐾 If you find yourself sitting in the Kitty Cottage, don’t be surprised if Kiki cautiously wanders over to investigate—especially if you have a snack in hand!

Despite her initial shyness, Kiki is young and adaptable. In a loving home, she’s sure to blossom and find her confidence. She’s fantastic with other cats, and we believe having a feline friend could help her feel more secure and entertained. If you’re thinking of adopting two, we’d be thrilled to help you find the perfect match! 🐱❤️

Kiki would thrive in a calm, quiet home without fast-moving children. We're not sure how she feels about dogs just yet, so a slower, older canine friend might be the best fit if you have one. If you’re ready to give Kiki the time and space she needs to feel safe and loved, she could be the perfect addition to your family. 🏡💕

🐾 Meet Marni, our amazing foster mom to little Junior! 🐶❤️ These two have been inseparable, with Junior soaking up all the love and snuggles Marni has to offer. Seeing our dogs thrive in a loving home, even if just for a little while, makes all the difference.

If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is the perfect time! We’re always looking for kind-hearted folks to open their homes to our shelter dogs and cats. Your temporary care can provide them with the love and stability they need while waiting for their forever homes. 🏡✨

Interested in becoming a foster hero? Reach out to us and help make a difference in the lives of these sweet animals! 💕

🐾 Adopt Buddy🐾

This handsome kitty is still searching for his forever home! 🏡 Buddy is a sweet and affectionate cat who loves to curl up in a cozy spot and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. Whether it’s sunbathing by the window, chasing a feather toy, or purring his way through the day, Buddy is sure to bring endless joy and warmth to the lucky person who welcomes him into their life.

Buddy would thrive in a calm, loving environment where he can be the center of attention. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share your home with, Buddy is your guy! 💛

Come meet Buddy and see if he’s the perfect fit for your family. Let’s find this wonderful cat the loving home he deserves!

🐾 Hospice Foster Needed for Sweet Kylo🐾

Meet Kylo, a gentle 10-year-old soul who deserves nothing but love in his golden years. Sadly, he's not doing well in the shelter environment and needs a soft place to land, where he can be showered with affection and care.

Do you have it in your heart to provide a loving home for this sweet boy? Let's make sure Kylo's last chapter is filled with comfort and love. 💛

If you're interested in giving Kylo the love he deserves, please reach out to us.

🐾 Meet Danny, our three-year-old black lab mix who came to us as a stray. This sweet boy has a heart full of love and a playful spirit. Danny’s always up for an adventure, whether it’s a hike in the woods or a cozy night in. He’s looking for a forever home where he can share his joy and loyalty. If you’re ready to add a loving companion to your life, Danny could be the one! 🖤

🐾 Ready to make a shelter dog’s day? Join us for Field Trip Fridays! From 12-4 pm, we’re giving our adoptable dogs a break from the shelter, and we need your help to take them out into the community. 🌿

Come by the shelter, pick up a furry friend, and spend the day exploring Mendocino, strolling through the Botanical Gardens, or visiting other dog-friendly spots. Your adventure will give these pups a much-needed change of scenery and help them get noticed by potential adopters. ❤️

Be sure to arrive early to choose your perfect adventure buddy—these dogs are eager to hit the road with you! 🐶✨ Let’s make this Friday unforgettable for our shelter dogs.

UPDATE: ADOPTED!!!!!! 🩷Adopt Boberta, the pretty, blue-eyed Calico who has been waiting for 91 long days at the Ark Thriftstore, hoping someone will see her for the beautiful soul she is. Boberta is 7 years old, FIV positive, has no teeth, and has an endearing cross-eyed gaze. Every day, she patiently waits, wondering why no one wants her. Boberta needs a calm, patient home where she can be kept indoors and finally feel safe enough to trust again.

Right now, she’s frustrated and might bite (which doesn’t hurt because she has no teeth) or try to scratch if she feels overwhelmed. But all she needs is that special person who will give her the time and love she needs to feel safe and cherished.

If you or someone you know can offer this precious girl the loving home she so desperately deserves, please reach out to us. Let’s show Boberta that she’s not invisible—she’s just waiting for the right person to see her. 🌟 She’s currently located at The Ark Thrift Store.

Our thrift store and shelter are located in Fort Bragg, California, approximately four hours north of San Francisco.

For more information about FIV, an immune disorder that only cats can get, and only spread by deep bites, see this page from UC Davis: https://www.sheltermedicine.com/library/resources/feline-immunodeficiency-fiv
