My story

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

7-24-23 Updates from Gracie's foster mom.

'Gracie is meant for a home and not a shelter. She is your typical older cat, she loves a routine. After her morning brushing and being fed she can be found on top of her cat tree looking out the window, on the porch or sometimes she just hangs out under the bed and naps. She will greet anyone who comes in but is also okay with time alone if I'm away for a few hours. Her special diet has solved her digestive problems and she is very content.'

Gracie is 11 years old and available for adoption. Gracie does need to be on a Rx diet of Hill's Gastrointestinal Biome Dry Cat Food.

5-12-23 Gracie is currently in foster care. If interested in Gracie please call our shelter or fill out an online application.

Update: Gracie has been making great strides in the last couple weeks. She is affectionate and out exploring.

Gracie has been returned after being in a home since 2013. Her senior owners were no longer able to care for her. She is very overweight so we have her on diet food and trying to give her some more exercise so she gets back down to a healthy weight. She is now almost 11 years old. Its so sad when after living in a home, Gracie now has to get used to life in a cage. She is nervous and scared which is easy to understand. Please apply to adopt this sweet girl. She lived her life as an only cat so we are unsure of her feelings towards other pets. Better suited for a cat experienced home. Can live with a calm older dog that is used to cats.

*Per JSAC policy, puppies and kittens under 6 months will not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6 years.

Adoption Process

Our friendly, knowledgable team of staff and volunteers would be glad to give you a tour of the shelter and discuss whether one of our furry friends is the right match for your home.

The JSAC has careful policies on the placement of young animals, dominant breed dogs (Rottweilers, Shepherds, Akitas, etc). Due to our lifelong return policy we prefer to adopt our pets locally, so we don't adopt out of state. We prefer homes in the region so that we can be a resource for the animals and their adopters. These policies and procedures are in place to protect everyone involved and are very common when rehoming animals, whether through a shelter or a rescue group.

We do not have "same day" adoptions. Rather, an application for an animal is reviewed to ensure that 1) the home has taken good care of their other animals * 2) The animal is permitted in the home and 3) that it is the right home for the right animal (choosing dog that likes cats if cats already in household, etc..). Typically this process takes 24-48 hours. If a dog application is approved and there are other dogs in the home, we have the two (or more) dogs meet; many times if necessary.

More about this shelter

Jersey Shore Animal Center is committed to the care of unwanted, abandoned, sick animals and to the adoption of these animals to responsible, loving homes. To that end, veterinary care is provided as needed, medication and inoculations are given and neutering/spaying is done prior to adoption unless the animal's health or age precludes this procedure.

In addition, a compassionate staff tends to providing for each animal's physical and emotional needs, taking care to keep each one sheltered, clean, well-fed and socialized.
