When did you adopt your pet from AARF?: November 2022
Pet’s AARF Name: Ocean
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): Elsa
How is your adopted pet doing? I fostered Ocean with another litter of kittens. When those kittens were old enough to be spayed/neutered, I kept tiny little Ocean. We had sent our beloved boxer Molly to the rainbow bridge in September, and are remaining boxer Willow was in mourning right along with us. Ocean and Willow bounded early on, and now it just made sense to keep this precious baby to help us fill that awful void of losing Molly.
Her name is now Elsa, named after the lioness in the show “born free” that my son Daniel loved as a child. Elsa keeps us entertained with her antics and is a loving bundle of furry energy. Always Purring. Always wanting love and attention and receiving it. Such a welcome addition to our pack. Perfect fit. Excellent Foster fail, lol!

Pet’s AARF Name: BELLINI
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): BELLINI
How is your adopted pet doing? Bellini is an angel sent from heaven. I couldn’t have asked for the perfect pup. She walks great on a leash and enjoys her walks with Charlie. It took about a week before I heard her bark. And it was like music in my ears. She sleeps with me and Charlie every night and follows me around. She had her first visit to the Vet and everyone there loves her. We submitted her DNA to be tested since I am anxious to know her breed. I will certainly share her information with A.A.R.F. as soon we find out. Thank you for picking me to be Bellini’s Mom. My family loves her as much as I do.

The first few months of life as a tripawd are going swimmingly and we are so thankful for our sweet Kira girl! Many thanks to everyone involved in her life-saving surgery and care!

Pet’s AARF Name: Emmie and Docker
Pet’s New Name (if you changed it): N/A
How is your adopted pet doing? Emmie and Docker are doing great. My husband and I agreed to get 1 cat for my stepdaughter for her 11th birthday. She has been begging for a few years for a cat, Guinea pig or hamster. I’ve personally never been an inside cat person. Once my husband and I agreed to get a cat I started searching. Found another cat through AARF that we really liked but once we met her decided she wasn’t a good fit for our family. Emmie wad our 2nd pick and we immediately fell in love. Docker showed out and ended up coming home with us the same night. They get a long great and have been great companions for all of us. I recently had a knee injury and they both love on me. Docker and Emmie both need a lot of human interaction. They have truly been an added blessing to our family.
