There are never enough organizations that work to rescue lost or abandoned animals, so the addition of Animal Rescue Ark in Patterson is very welcome in our sister community of Patterson.
Louise LoMeli and her partner Michelle DeLeo have started Animal Rescue Ark because of their love of animals and the personal heartbreak that comes from not being able to help every furry little critter in need. They have both been volunteering with animal rescue organizations for a very long time, and finally decided that they could do more if they joined forces. Michelle has volunteered, with non-kill rescue groups. She is also a New York State Licensed Class 1 Wildlife Rehabilitator. Louise’s dogs have been trained as therapy dogs that have helped throughout the community for many years. She has also volunteered at Guiding Eyes for the Blind for many years. Louise has been trained in animal massage therapy and socialization, as well, and has worked in the South Bronx helping stray dogs in desperate need of attention.
Both Louise and Michelle, continue to volunteer with other animal rescue associations even as they nurture and care for animals that come to them through Animal Rescue Ark. These two are totally committed to alleviating the pain and suffering that affects innocent animals because of abuse, neglect or abandonment.
The mission of Animal Rescue Ark is to rescue abandoned, stray or injured animals, nurse them back to health, and find them loving homes. Information about this organization can be found at AnimalRescueArk.org or you can contact Louise at louise@animalrescueark.org. Inquiries may also be sent to Animal Rescue Ark, PO Box 345, Patterson, NY 12563 or Louise and Michelle may be reached at 845-319-7701.
