Happy New Year from all of our ARF canines and felines to all of the four leggeds in our community. Paws up to Bonnie, the beagle/Dalmatian mix, who made a brief appearance at ARF only to be scooped up and carried away to her forever home. Sadly, we say goodbye to Purdy, a female golden retriever, who will always be in our hearts.
Happy New Year from the many four-leggeds, and two, at the ARF house. If our pets could talk, what New Year’s resolution do you think they would have?
At Idyllwild Arts Academy, we have begun to implement sustainable practices in many aspects of our campus life. Some of the greatest successes have occurred in our dining hall.

After the Christmas tree lighting ceremonies in Idyllwild, I was thinking how lucky we are to live on this island in the middle of the sea of humanity known as Southern California. In some ways we have it better than most. If you’ve lived in a major city (or commute to one now), you know…
There is only one thing we love more than welcoming all the furry four leggeds that come in the door, and that is to watch them go out the door to their forever home. Four paws up to Polly, our orange polydactyl resident who purred her way right into the purrfect home. We’ll miss you, window kitty.
