About Us
At Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends (AARF), our mission is simple but powerful — creating a community where every pet matters. Based in Stone Mountain, Georgia, we work every day to make that mission a reality through three vital programs. Our Cat Adoption Center provides a safe and loving environment for cats in need, giving them the care and attention they deserve while they wait for their forever families. Our Community Pet Food Pantry serves over 500 dogs and cats each month, ensuring that families facing financial hardship never have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their beloved pets. And our Stone Mountain Village Community Cat Program has spayed, neutered, and vaccinated over 200 community cats in the past three years, stabilizing colonies, preventing the birth of hundreds of unwanted kittens, and reducing the spread of disease in our community.
