The Animal Rescue Network (ARN) is the largest no-kill animal shelter for abandoned and abused domestic animals in Montreal. It is a non-profit organization run entirely by volunteers. I am amazed at the wonderful work that the dedicated volunteers do to provide love, care, and attention to the shelter's 300 cats (in addition to all the animals who live in foster homes) who are all waiting to find their forever homes.
The ARN is always looking for kind-hearted animal lovers to adopt, foster, sponsor, make a donation, and volunteer at the shelter. They hold adoption days every other Saturday at various pet supply stores around Montreal (check their website for schedule and location). I am so lucky to have found and adopted my adorable cat at one of these events. The volunteers at the adoption event were very helpful in providing me with information and answering all of my questions.I will be forever grateful to the ARN for providing me with my furry friend.
If you are looking to get a pet, DO NOT BUY from a pet store. Get informed about where pet stores get their animals and the cruel conditions that those animals face. Instead, support a reputable, non-profit animal shelter like the ARN.
