Lefty Lou is a 10-year-young Jack Russell terrier. She loves to bask in the California sun, go for leash walks, and bring smiles and laughter to your life. She is spayed, up to date on all shots and house-trained. She enjoys the great outdoors, but for the most part, she will want to be by your chair. This girl is still young at heart and healthy.

Mr. Grey has spent the last month wishing his best buddy Tommy was still around. It took him awhile but he’s coming around. And he wonders if you have a

friendly cat that he could share your home with? Mr. Grey is about 4 years old and very polite. He is a bit shy in the beginning.

And then there’s Mr. Bill … Furball Bill, to be exact. A champagne-colored male about 4 years old, he is great with other cats and kittens. And he loves canines, too. Bill is still young enough to play a game of catch the mouse, or chase the ball, yet comfortable just hanging out on the cat tree, or gazing out the window. He’s a little shy at first but will eventually warm up. And he says a couple years in the ARF shelter is enough. Mr. Bill would really like his own home.

Heidi has been the ARF administrative assistant for a few years now. She is a senior female tortie willing to help with meow calls on the phone, or meet and greet at the door. She is only vocal when it’s time to eat. Most of her day is spent guarding the office, and in Heidi’s language, that means nap with one eye on the door. Heidi is a carrier of corona virus that is not active, which means she needs to be the only feline in the house. Let’s give Heidi her wish to have her own home, or office.
