At ARF Hamptons: August 2023

Animals of the Month

HOLLY: This dazzling feline always wants to look her best and loves being brushed. Holly is a sweet, five-year-old kitty who loves toys, the puzzles are her favorite! She is always the first to greet you in the cattery with a loud meow and if you make your lap available to her, she’ll snuggle right in. Holly came to ARF when her owners could no longer care for her and a loving home where she could shine is all she is looking for. Could that home be yours?

 

AALIAH: Aaliah was rescued from the streets of the Bahamas and is extremely sweet and smart. This two-year-old Shepherd mix is so warm and welcoming that she helps train other pups at ARF. Although Aaliah thrives with dogs, she is very shy when she meets new people. Aaliah will need a patient person who will be willing to take the time to get to know her with multiple meetings and lots of treats! ARF staff says she’s a “treasure” and is well worth the wait.

All ARF animals are vet checked, spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on all vaccines. To view all of our adoptable animals, visit: www.arfhamptons.org
