About Anguilla Animal Rescue Corporation
Anguilla Animal Rescue Corporation gives surrendered, stray, and unwanted dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens a real next step. Animals are observed at Morlens Veterinary Clinic, then bathed, dewormed, vaccinated, and moved into the shelter while the team looks for forever homes. Donations also help fund free spay and neuter services, school visits, shelter tours, and the Second Chances thrift store in The Valley, which supports the rescue work behind the scenes.
AARF is Anguilla's first rescue, and it has grown up around the island's real needs. The work is not just about sheltering animals, it also includes spay and neuter support, education, and thrift-store fundraising, all run through a volunteer-driven effort on Anguilla.
