The mission of Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends is to end pet overpopulation. We advocate for lasting and comprehensive change in human attitudes and behavior toward all animals in order to prevent pet homelessness, neglect and abandonment.
Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends seeks to achieve our goals through education, public outreach, rescue and adoption, spay/neuter and advocacy. We do not engage in or support actions that are illegal or violent, are political or partisan in nature, or that run counter to the basic principles of compassion and respect for others.
Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends strives for integrity, fairness and professionalism in pursuit of our mission.
We seek to be inclusive and to develop partnerships with a broad range of community and corporate
partners to further our goals in pursuit of our mission.
Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends does not discriminate with regard to race, ethnicity, color, sex, sexual orientation, disability, age, veteran status, national origin, religion or political affiliation in the administration of its programs and activities.

Additional adoption info
All AARF cats have all received their shots, have been FIV/FeLV tested, are on flea and tick preventative and have been microchipped and spayed/neutered. All AARF kitties are fostered in responsible foster homes, where they receive love, attention and socialization. We have a group of fantastic fosters who help us to create an adoptable and healthy companion for your home.
We don't "sell" cats here at AARF. But we do ask for a minimum adoption donation to help us cover the cost of all of the vet care the cats have received. Effective, January 1, 2007, our adoption donation is $85 for cats. All adoption donations are tax-deductible, and help AARF continue our rescue and adoption program.
