Animal Refuge

All Creatures Great and Small

Located in North Arkansas is the Rocky Ridge Refuge, a place of helping and healing for a wide variety of special needs animals that find their way there. Approximately 50-60 animals make their home there at any given time.

The refuge was started by Janice Wolf, a former veterinarian technician who set up the shelter to rescue and raise wildlife and sick pets after long caring for animals.

Sharing is caring. Especially when it’s a delicious watermelon.

Who knew such different species could get along and love each other. Selfless people like Janice remind me of how truly wonderful the world can be.

  1. Just adorable! Bless your heart for doing so much to help these animals. What a great way to spend each day, though I’m sure it can be very demanding at times. I wish you and the rest a blessed life.
