We’ve started the year with none stop rescues. This lovely senior boy was thankfully confiscated from a neglectful situation. Poor boy was underweight and not walking well from arthritis. AARC exists to give rescues like him the last years they deserve; full of plenty love and care.

Thanks to those who support regularly we can keep well stock in pain meds and supplements needed daily by our senior rescues to keep them comfortable and happy till the very end.

Thank you.

And another one. A direct result of irresponsible breeding. The new has just started and I’m tired already! She’s not eating; we’ve started treatment; fingers crossed.

Thank you to our supporters who respond to our appeals we stocked up on some essentials and got this girl her full course of cancer treatment.

Yesterday we had another senior dog dumped in a ditch. We are very grateful to his reporter who didn’t ignore him, searched google for help and waited with him until we arrived. Luckily he was nearby the sanctuary so we got to him quickly and went straight to the vet. He picked at the food and could at least stand. He’s very weak; but hopefully with plenty of care his body can heal.

We need to stock up on antibiotics, fluids, pain control and supplements. Any amount donated will help us to continue to help these rescues…

We picked up this lovely senior girl this morning. Depending on who you ask she was either abandoned when previous owners relocated or her previous owner died. Either was she was surging on savaging from a rubbish dump. She was spayed immediately where the vet also removed some tumours and cysts from her ovaries. Now this sweet girl of about 8 years old can enjoy her final years filled with good food and love.

13/01/2025

We were alerted to this poor girl who’d spent at least hours soaking wet in the drainage. When we arrived she was barking weakly for help unable to move herself. We rushed straight to vet where she had a lovely chicken dinner. Unfortunately her examinations showed on top of being absolutely covered in ticks and fleas, pale and underweight she had the most horrendous mammary tumour. Heartbreakingly I made the decision to put her to sleep. I wish this was a video of her turnaround looking healthy and happy in the end but the only way I could save her was to let her go peacefully hoping that she felt my love at the very end. Even if it’s the right thing to do it’s never easy.

Mango and Mochi looking very happy and adorable in their new home. They weren’t from our sanctuary but we were happy to help them finally find a loving forever home. Videos like this exemplify why we encourage kitten adoptions in pairs; makes for happier and healthier kitties.Thank you all who open their hearts and homes to a rescue. If you are unable to adopt fostering, sponsoring and volunteering are also just a few ways you can still help.Thank you ❤️

Three dogs brought to the sanctuary this morning to be surrendered. The kids love them but the parents don’t want them around. We are ever full but have never turned an animal in need away.

This poor cat lost her kittens at only a few days old and understandable become very distressed. We her our youngest four orphan kittens and it turned out to be a perfect match. Added bonus for me; no waking up every three hours throughout the night.

It’s not just the feeding and cleaning; the mother cat can provide comfort and teach them what they need to know.
We a very pleased it works out well.

The biggest thank you to the those who responded to our appeal last year to sponsor our FIV/FeLV tests. We collected them along with some other goodies yesterday and put them straight to use. We have 59 left so we can continue to help with community strays with ease.

Thank you ❤️

New Rescues Alert…

A couple days ago we collected cute Cali. She has some issues with her hind legs that caused her to be surrendered. We love getting animals back on their feet and with our treatment plan we are optimistic she’ll be ok with time.

Yesterday it was raining kittens with twelve new rescues and two mother cats. Three kittens have already been adopted and one mother cat spayed and returned and the other mother is helping foster an orphan kitten. We hope to see all the kittens in new loving homes by the end of the month.

I honestly can’t thank our supporters enough who enable us to keep our rescues fed, vaccinated, dewormed and neutered. Your help makes all the difference to our rescues being able to have long happy lives.

Thank you ❤️

Saffy Update…

Our girl started eating by herself this weekend which was a very big relief. She can use her legs to left her head and front body and turn herself. We have started rehabilitation exercises to get her back on her feet. Thank you for all the well wishes; we’ll keep you updated on her progress.

Two unwanted puppies surrendered; we can’t say this enough - neuter your pets!

A community dog brought by a young boy who suspected poisoning but more likely to be suffering from tick fever.

Just another day at the sanctuary!

Apologies for graphic photo. Little Saffy was brought to the vet after a friend saw her being dragged out of the road by the driver in front.We assume she was clipped in the head by a car which caused one eyeball to pop out of the socket, head trauma caused her eye to dart from left to right and paralysis with no deep pain feeling in front legs.

Sometimes I don’t know if I’m the best or worst person to face these situations. You look at her condition and euthanasia is obviously an understandable option but true to myself I took responsibility for her and opted to manage pain and give her time. 24hrs to see how her body would respond to the major trauma it had just endured. Thankfully in just a few days the eye movement has stopped and feeling and some control has returned in her front legs. Her damaged eye was successful removed today.

Little Saffy still has a long way to go; she still can’t walk or eat by herself but we look forward to her being one of many successful transformations of 2025.

Thank you to all who make these second chances possible.

This little cutie is our first rescue of 2025. We are just so grateful for everyone who continues to make these rescues possible. We just can’t say thank you enough to those who help us give these animals in need second chance.

We have some great things planned in 2025 and we hope we can continue to inspire kindness, compassion, empathy and respect for all living things.

Thank you! Happy New Year!

We are so extremely grateful to have the support of Junior Animal Welfare Society of AISL. This wonderful group@of school kids visited us last month to help wash our puppies, play with our cats and drop some pet food. Their Christmas donation drive raised k7,000 enabling us to purchase much needed cat biscuits, kitten food and cleaning products.

We just can’t say thank you enough ❤️
