WORKING CAT HOMES NEEDED: Not all cats are suitable for an in-home adoption, but many can live happy lives as barn cats, shop cats and in places with other “mouser” jobs! Our Camp Purr program is for these cats who have spent their lives outside of a home and would not be happy living indoors. These cats are low maintenance (food, water and shelter), and they provide a great service, as they’re a natural deterrent to mice, moles and other vermin.

We have several working cats in need of homes right now! All have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and are ready to adopt!

Interested in giving some working cats a home (and a job)? Get started at https://ow.ly/njR750PK8sI.

If you can't adopt, please spread the word! These cats are ready to be out of the shelter and in places where they can live their best lives!

$77 ADOPTIONS: Been wanting to add a new dog to the family? You're in luck! This Saturday (3/9) through next Sunday (3/17), adoption fees for dogs 6 months and older will be lucky $77! This event will take place at ALL ARL adoption locations.

Pro tips:

🍀 See all our adoptable dogs, as well as our locations/hours at ARL-Iowa.org! We recommend coming as early as possible to ensure you’ll be able to adopt that day.

🍀 If you’d like to introduce your child or your dog to our adoptable dogs, please bring them with you when you visit!

🍀 This event also includes dogs in foster homes and ones available by appointment. To meet those dogs, contact us using the info in their website bios. If we receive your request by 6 p.m. Sunday, we’ll honor the discounted adoption fee when you visit – even if the visit happens after the promo is over!

🍀 Use the money you save on your adoption fee to spoil your new family member! We make it easy to load up on supplies, treats and toys at our Animal House store at ARL Main!

UPDATE: Bushwick has been adopted!

EXPAND YOUR FLOCK: We have several roosters available for adoption! These guys make great protectors for your flock and can also be excellent bug-catchers!

Check out all of our available roosters at https://ow.ly/7wLF50QAPtJ!

NEUTER YOUR EX: Have an ex that shouldn’t reproduce? Feeling vengeful this Valentine’s Day? For a $15 donation, we’ll name a feral cat after your ex then spay or neuter them and release them through our trap-neuter-return (TNR) program to stop the breeding cycle.

Give your ex a proper sendoff (you know Brad and Chad deserve the snippy-snip), heal your heart, and help control the community cat population at the same time.

To neuter your ex, just go to https://ow.ly/CFC450Qxtep now-Feb. 14, make a donation, and include your ex’s name (first names or nicknames only). Your donation helps provide funding for our TNR program and other spay/neuter programs.

Hate this idea and think we’re being petty? Sponsor a pet instead at the link above!

We desperately need funds to help cover expenses associated with the rescue. We have insurance, vet bills, supplies, etc that we have to pay. If you can donate we’d greatly appreciate it!

HAPPENING NOW: Today and Sunday are the FINAL DAYS of our $25 dog adoption special, so if you’re looking for a dog, come visit us! Adoption fees for all dogs 6 months and older are just $25. We’re open 10-6, and selection changes multiple times a day as dogs are adopted and new ones become available.

We have 65 dogs available for adoption right now (pictured are just a few), and we continue to have a high number of dogs in our care, with more coming through our doors every day. When you adopt, you're not only taking home a new pet who is already spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped (saving you hundreds of dollars in veterinary care!), you're opening kennel space for another dog in need.

Pro tips:

• If you’re interested in specific dogs, be sure to check their online profiles at ARL-Iowa.org. They will include instructions for how to meet any dogs who are available for adoption by appointment, including ones in foster homes. If there are no instructions, just come out and visit!

• Most of our dogs are located at ARL Main, but we have many more available than will fit in our adoption area. If you are interested in a particular dog but don’t see it when you visit, ask a staff member for assistance.

• Want a child or dog introduction before adopting? Bring your kids or dogs with you!

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD! These pups deserve to be out of the shelter and enjoying the sweet life in homes. Let's make it happen!
