I think there are several other pets here that are adoptable, we fell in love with Ranger too, but adopted Joey, who was so much like our previous cat. I highly recommend them as they are small, know the pets' backgrounds and are honest and need people to adopt the pets. This is smaller and more hands-on than the other 2 that we looked at, the APL and Barf, so we chose to adopt here instead. So glad for their hard work every day!

The volunteers were incredible -- they knew every cat by name, which ones liked being held, which were shy, which ones were little bullies, and which would happily jump on top of the furniture or refrigerator. They were also very knowledgeable about each cat's medical needs and personality. It's clear this place is run with so much care and love. An absolutely amazing place. Bonus - it's a no kill shelter.

I will always be grateful for them helping us find our new family friend! This shelter really does everything they can for all of their animals to keep them safe and healthy! They are incredibly hard working and committed to their animals in a loving and supportive way; whether it taking them to the vet at any time of the day or night to helping mother dogs birth their puppies, they are right there caring for them every step of the way! They go above and beyond to rescue animals and take in any stray/surrender they can! That's how they found Minnie. They do their best to find their animals homes that will take care of their needs as well as work with the new families in any needs they have. They really know each and every one of the animals they care for by their personality and interests. These staff members have a personal relationship with these animals instead of only knowing them by a number or "name". I honestly am very proud of all their hard work, their abilities to conquer through anything and admire their passionate hearts! 5 stars is not a high enough award that this rescue deserves as they clearly do 10 star and above work! I hope you consider checking them out for a new furry friend and see all of the care they receive here!

I appreciate all the love they show both my pups (one from their rescue, and our older dog from another rescue) when we drop them off. They know their personalities and how to handle each of them. We used to have a family friend watch the dogs at home when we were out of town, so I was a bit nervous the first time we left them, but the staff made sure to let me know we could contact them to check on the dogs any time... and now my dogs are exited to go back and play when we are out of town. Thank you for all your hard work ROAR staff!!!
