ARK Adoptables are becoming art thanks to Artist Megan M. Cohen!
Megan specializes in water color pet portraits and 10% of the proceeds go to the no-kill shelter of your choice. Click here to take a look at the work she has done with various shelter animals, including the Ark. Visit her website for additional information.

Congratulations to the ARK's Founder and Director, Nina Beal! 
The State of Alabama Veterinary Medical Association and the State of Alabama Veterinary Medical Foundation honored this dedicated, hardworking lady with the Bowie-Heath Humanitarian Award for the work she has done with animals and people in our community.

It was a great surprise and a great honor for Nina. She is the very first person to receive this award!!  To be recognized by veterinary professionals is the highest most honorable award someone in her field could receive.  She was presented the award at a special ceremony at the Space and Rocket Center on January 29th, 2005.  Liz Hurley was the emcee.

Also inducted were the Auburn Eagle Tiger into the Alabama Animal Hall of Fame, as well as Ms Baker, the little monkey that lived so long at the Space and Rocket Center.  In addition, they inducted a Husky named Jack Tripp for saving his family from a deadly house fire.

Sounds like Nina was in good company! Congratulations to Nina from all of the ARK volunteers, along with a big thanks from all of the animals and their adopted families who can credit their happy relationships with their pets to her hard work and dedication!

The ARK accepts Memorial & Honorarium contributions. You can send a Memorial or Honorarium donation in loving memory or in honor of a pet, family member, or friend. The ARK will acknowledge your gift. Your $25.00 membership to the ARK will help the animals aboard the ARK.

In order to mail an acknowledgement letter to your loved one, please include their full name and their mailing address when making a donation.

We will put you on our mailing list so you can receive our newsletters. All quality non-profit organizations need financial resources to achieve their goals. Your donation to the ARK will help us rescue more animals and care for the ones already aboard the ARK.
