Celebrating 75 Years!

By admin | Published: January 2, 2013

We are proud to announce that we are celebrating our 75th year as an organization.

The Animal Rescue League of Southern Rhode Island started in 1938 with a small number of concerned citizens that recognized the need for a humane organization dedicated to the protection and care of stray, abandoned, abused and homeless animals. In 1969 ARL/SRI moved to Curtis Corner Road in Peace Dale Rhode Island, where we care for approximately 40 cats, and 15 dogs, and other small animals such as rabbits at any given time.

To celebrate this huge accomplishment, we will be kicking the celebration off with our first ever “A Diamond in the Ruff” on February 22, 2013 at the Towers in Narragansett. Enjoy food and beverage samples from some of South County’s best restaurants and businesses. Take a chance on our huge raffle and silent auction. You can also help us choose our very own “Queen of Diamonds”. Enjoy yourself with friends and family while supporting the “diamonds in the ruff” that we have been caring for at the ARLSRI for 75 years!

  • Happy Endings

    • Tory (formally known as Frito)

        I am so happy that Jennifer had asked me to foster Tory for the shelter. At first I thought it was only going to be for a few weeks but it was for a month. I was concerned for what if my dog, Duncan and Tory got along, well know I have Tory and Duncan and I couldn’t be happier. She makes you laugh all day long. Always jumping into shopping bags and running around the apartment with Duncan, he chases her and she chases him. Tory is such a love bug, always waiting for me at the door with Duncan when I get home. She has a purr that is so loud that I cannot fall asleep till she stops J Tory loves to cuddle with me and even Duncan. She still has not grown into her tail! Alexis

    • Kali (formerly Duchess)

      Hi Jennifer… I just wanted to send you a picture of Kali (formerly Duchess). We are just loving her so much! It didn't take her too long to finally start venturing out of the bedroom and into the rest of the house. She loves to be with people…if you sit on the couch, your lap becomes prime real estate. My husband's lap seems to be her lap of choice. We've also discovered that she loves to chase the laser. She actually sits in a particular spot at night time and waits for it. Quite funny. Thanks again!! Patty Marshall

    • Skiddie

      Hello! It's Tucker Curtis; I adopted Skiddie a few yearsago, and she is doing great! She has really come out of her shell, and is getting more social every day. I love it when she sleeps with me, and her purr is so cute; it's like motor! We are like best friends now.
