New Yorkers for Companion Animals's adoption process
Additional adoption info
Almost all of our animals are already spayed and neutered (exception, small kittens). All have had shots and cats are tested for Leukemia and FIV. We seek people who have a good track record of responsible care of animals. We work with an adoption contract. The contract guarantees that, if for any reason an adoption does not work out, we will take the animal back. We do have standard adoption fees to try and cover some of our expenses. $100.00 for cats. $125.00 for dogs.

About New Yorkers for Companion Animals
New Yorkers for Companion Animals is a small, Not-for-Profit animal rescue and placement organization located in Manhattan. Most of our animals are rescued from the animal control shelter (AC&C) of New York City. We keep them in foster homes until adopted. We are not a formal shelter. We do not euthanize animals except in extreme cases of untreatable illness.
Because we are "no kill" and because we do not have a shelter, we cannot take in every animal without a home. We are extremely limited in how many animals we can accept. Such depends entirely upon availablity of foster volunteers and how quickly foster animals are able to be adopted.

Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
