ANIMAL RESCUE RHODE ISLAND IS A NO-KILL ORGANIZATION COMMITTED TO THE HUMANE WELFARE AND WELL-BEING OF ANIMALS IN NEED.
SHELTER AND HUMANE EDUCATION: ESTABLISHED IN 1938, THE ANIMAL RESCUE LEAGUE OF SOUTHERN RHODE ISLAND ("ANIMAL RESCUE RI OR "ARRI") IS A LIMITED ADMISSION SHELTER THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE UP TO 44 CATS AND SMALL ANIMALS AND 20 DOGS AT ANY ONE TIME. ARRI ACCEPTS PETS SURRENDERED BY THEIR OWNERS, AS WELL AS ANIMALS FROM RESCUE ORGANIZATIONS WITHIN RI AND SHELTERS IN OTHER STATES. IN 2019, ARRI TOOK IN 493 ANIMALS AND ADOPTED OUT 478. ARRI BELIEVES THAT EVERY ANIMAL COMING INTO THE SHELTER DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE AT A LOVING HOME. CONSISTENT WITH THE "NO KILL" PHILOSOPHY, PETS ARE NEVER EUTHANIZED DUE TO SPACE, TIME, BREED, OR TREATABLE BEHAVIORAL OR MEDICAL CONDITIONS. ARRI IS ALSO A COMMUNITY RESOURCE. ITS COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROGRAM INCLUDES A PET FOOD PANTRY TO HELP FINANCIALLY CHALLENGED PET OWNERS FEED AND KEEP THEIR PETS IN THEIR HOMES. THE PANTRY IS LOCATED AT THE SHELTER AND IS SUPPLIED BY PET FOOD DONATIONS FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS. IN ADDITION, ARRI OFFERS HUMANE EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN IN SCHOOLS, YOUTH GROUPS, AND LIBRARIES, AS WELL AS EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS FOR ADULTS. THOSE INCLUDE, FOR EXAMPLE, "BABY READY PETS", A PROGRAM DESIGNED TO HELP EXPECTANT PARENTS SAFELY INTEGRATE A BABY INTO A HOME WITH PETS. ARRI ALSO PROVIDES A WIDE RANGE OF VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES BOTH REMOTELY AND AT THE SHELTER. IN 2019, MORE THAN 400 VOLUNTEERS WERE REGISTERED TO DONATE THEIR TIME TO SUPPORT THE MISSION.
