Animal Rescue Force
July 2024
Happy Summer to our Dearest ARF supporters!
We are reaching out to you today to share some Bad News and some Good News.
First the Bad News: Our donations and other income continue to drop while our costs have risen significantly. There are many reasons for this, including overall price inflation, fewer people willing to adopt new pets, corporate cutbacks that reduce opportunities to raise funds, and increased costs for rent, veterinary care and medical supplies.
Now for the Good News: We have a benefactor who over the next three years will match every donation of $500 and above up to $100,000 in total ($33,000 per year)! This generous offer will allow us to keep our adoption centers open and continue to find forever homes for our animal friends.
Won’t you help?
Donations can be made by check sent to Animal Rescue Force, Inc., PO Box 418, East Brunswick, NJ 08816; or, you can use a credit card by going to our website, www.animalforceinc.com and clicking on the GiveDirect link; or you can use PayPal by using the email arforce3@aol.com.
Thanks in advance for your continuing kindness toward animals!
Sincerely,
Susan Ragland
President

Cat of the week!
Meet Cher!!
Cher is a very sweet and playful 1 and a half year old kitty. She is a little shy at first at our adoption center and in new surroundings but once she acclimates is a real love bug. She gets along with other cats and has lived in a home with dogs so would most likely get used to a calm dog if introduced slowly. Cher as a kitten had a narrowing of the hips that caused her to have some trouble defecating. She has been on only canned food since then and has been doing very well and not having any issues. So she will have to go to a home willing to stick with a diet of only canned food. She is littertrained. She would probably be ok with older children.
To adopt Cher is $140.00 which includes her spay, vaccines, combo test for FIV/FeLV, microchip and collar.
