ALL ABOUT ARF

  • The ARF Adoption Center is located at 90 Daniels Hole Road in Wainscott, NY next to the East Hampton Airport.
  • Adoption hours are 11am to 4pm daily.
  • Founded in 1974, ARF has rescued and placed over 13,000 cats and dogs in loving homes.
  • We are located on 22 wooded acres in the heart of the East Hampton Pine Barrens.
  • Our animals come from local animal control centers and from people who can no longer care for them.
  • At any given time, ARF has over 100 animals in residence.
  • ARF is a non-profit organization funded entirely by private donations.
  • The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons (ARF) is a “no-kill” adoption center.  ARF will care for an animal regardless of how long it takes to find a loving home, except in extraordinary circumstances, such as incurable illness or severe and dangerous behavioral problems. In such cases, a cat or dog may be euthanized.
