My story

These three siblings are good friends and lovely companions. While they are suspicious of anyone reaching in to their area, they actually love nose scritches and cuddles once they are safely in your arms. The two spayed sisters (Bashful and Sleepy) and their neutered brother (Dopey) were all fostered with a young child and seem to enjoy playing games and sharing breakfast with their young companion. While not huge fans of their monthly mani/pedi, they have become resigned and are really good when they are taken out for exams or for cuddling. When happy and getting fresh greens or hay they often do little zoomies around their cage area.

More about this rescue

Our rescue group was formed in December 2007, but all our Board Members have had extensive experience rescuing and working with abandoned animals. We often work with other rescue organizations to find appropriate and safe foster and adoptive homes for our pet clients. We regularly go to areas with abandoned animals and collect them. The animals are taken to a licensed veterinarian examined, treated and spayed or neutered. Every effort is made to work with the animal and our foster and adoptive families to find a suitable forever home.

For those animals who are truly wild and feral, we release the animal in a safe and secure location after it has recovered from its medical treatment. We also work with certified wildlife rehabilitators to rescue injured and orphaned wildlife. Our organization is focused on improving the welfare of the abandoned animals in need of help in Brooklyn. In furthering that goal, our resources are focused on the animals.

Aside from a few minimal overhead costs such as our website and phone services, our entire budget is spent on animal care such as medical and food costs.
