My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please Meet Tender RUSTY - A Perfect Example of a Feline Soul!
This young boy with his beautiful emerald green eyes has lived his young live in a community garden and crossed our path during a TNR - his friendliness clearly apparent.
Rusty is a STUNNINGLY beautiful fellow with amazingly green eyes, super soft fur and the most tender meow when greeting you.
He is an affectionate young kitty with a gentle demeanor but at the beginning be a bit hesitant and shy and will need a quiet home and lot's of love to give. Surely, it will not take long that he will come up to you and encourage you tenderly with his head butts to be loved, petted and feeling safe. He truly loves attention- and when you pet him behind the ear he will purr out of pure satisfaction and gives you the cutest blink as a Thank You for spending time with him! At night time, there is no doubt he will join you trying to be as close as possible to you, putting his head in your hands or even trying to rest his head on your chest as the ultimate proof of his love to you!

Please watch him: https://youtu.be/KP90ixs38YY

No doubt, when you meet him the first time he will catch your heart with his affectionate but gentle approach and let you know: "I know I'm going to fall in love with you - and so will you!"!
Rusty LOVES other kitties and always encourages his foster siblings with the cutest chirping sound to play and cuddle with and headbutting them, so he needs a home that resides already a furry playful feline family member. He always calls out for furry foster company - as he did with his siblings while still being outside - he is true feline buddy!

Rusty is roughly 2 years young, absolutely healthy including being neutered, deflead, fully vetted, vaccinated and tested negative for FIV/FELV, and ready for his furever home.
Please come and meet this beautiful boy!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

If you have fallen in love with one of our rescued animals, you need to fill out an application form. After approval, you can meet them in their foster homes. If you decide to give one (or) two of them a forever home and would like to adopt, a basic contract will need to be signed to adopt any of our cats.
We also ask for a donation to support our veterinarian expenses and to continue our rescue efforts.

More about this rescue

We are an East-Harlem-based rescue group of volunteers committed beyond all odds to take stray cats and kittens off the street by Trap-Neuter-Release programs, to give them all veterinary care as needed, rehabilitate and foster them when needed, and get them ready to be adopted into forever homes. We also try to improve the lives of animals that suffer or are homeless by engaging our communities. We focus particular on animals that are "unwanted" but beautiful inside out - Come and visit and you will see how precious they are!
