Please save a life today by donating to Animal Rescue of the Rockies! Your support will help save the life of a homeless dog or cat and create a lifetime of happiness for a deserving pet!
Animal Rescue of the Rockies' primary focus is on saving "last chance" pets on euthanasia lists at overcrowded shelters in Colorado and in nearby states. When pets are pulled from shelters, they're placed in qualified foster homes until loving forever homes are found. Over the last 19 years, over 10,000 lucky dogs and cats have been saved from euthanasia. Your support truly saves lives!
Many pets in shelters suffer from treatable illnesses or injuries, and your donation will help us get them to safety where they can receive the veterinary care they so desperately need. Often, shelters don't have the resources available to help pets like this, so we step in to give them the second chance they deserve. In addition to helping overcrowded shelters, ARR's dedicated volunteers rescue hundreds of cats and kittens each year from life on the streets. Outdoor community cats are trapped, vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and returned to their communities if they are unable to become indoor cats. This prevents the cycle of new litters being born and ensures that adult cats enjoy more healthy lives outdoors. Kittens and friendly adult cats are placed in foster care and socialized before they're adopted to loving homes.
ARR is a member of the Best Friends Animal Society's Network Partners, working towards a nationwide goal of a home for every pet by the year 2025. We hope you'll help us reach this goal by donating to save as many lives as possible.
Our adoptable pets are listed on ARR's website: www.arrcolorado.org.
In 2021 we adopted out 1,941 lucky dogs and cats, thanks to your support! So far this year, over 1,400 pets have found forever homes!

"I've only been with you wonderful people for a few months but I can't imagine not being associated with ARR now. Years ago when I set up my online banking account, one of my security questions was "what is your dream job", my answer was animal care and it has come true in a great way. All who know me, know that I love animals and make them my priority even over people sometimes because they can't speak for themselves."
