My story

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

Cashew and Lilah complement each other perfectly. Both ladies are super smart, classy, and silky soft, and their personalities fit together like a puzzle.

Cashew, the white and brown tabby, is the mischief maker. She has been known to knock the top off of the cat food container in the refrigerator to help herself, and she's a bit of an escape artist. She has a singsong trill/chirp when she is playing and her long tail curls so adorably when she is happy. She will greet your guests and it will take only a short time for them to become best friends. Most importantly, she wants to be your bed friend. Cashew enjoys sleeping on top of you, between you and your partner, next to you, even under your chin. She might also come to groom your hair while you're watching tv on the couch. Snuggle buddy is a prerequisite for her new guardians.

Lilah, the tuxedo, is a super gentle, brave girl who will come out to play when company is over. However, she is a bit more skittish to the touch and will take longer to readily accept pets from you. Churu treats are her kryptonite and they will help her along greatly. While Cashew is sleeping under your chin, Lilah will quietly settle between your legs at night. She squeaks in the most adorable way at mealtime and loves to look out the window. She might be the most symmetrical tuxedo kitty we've ever seen with perhaps the cutest toes ever, kind of like tiny elephant feet. When she gives you her trust, it feels like the greatest gift.

Cashew and Lilah are approximately 1.5 years and 1 year respectively (as of January, 2024) and are both spayed, vaccinated, and negative for FIV and FeLV. They are located in Queens where they stay busy with morning and evening zoomies in their favorite tunnel.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

You can see our adoption process here: https://www.foranimalsinc.com/adopt

Prior to adopting one of our wonderful pets, you will be asked to fill out an adoption application. Upon approval, you will sign an adoption contract and pay the $150 adoption fee, which covers the cost of spay/neuter and vaccines for your new companion.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Most of our cats are in private foster homes, so an approved application is required to arrange a meeting. There is no fee for the application, and no obligation. We usually start with a virtual meet & greet, and most of our fosters also allow in-person meet & greets if one is desired after the virtual meet & greet.

More about this rescue

Who we are
For Animals, Inc. is a TNR (trap, neuter, return) group based in Queens, NY. We are a New York State not for profit Corporation with (501) C-3 status. We are an all volunteer organization that has been rescuing and caring for feral and abandoned cats since 2008.

What we do
The focus of our operation is a TNR program. For Animals, Inc. rescues stray and abandoned cats and then transports them to a veterinarian office where they are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and checked for general health. Afterward, they are fostered in a cage free environment until they are adopted into safe, loving homes.

Why we do it
With tens of thousands of feral cats on the streets of NYC, our focus is on TNR as an effort to humanely reduce the overall population, one colony at a time. By neutering & spaying the feral cats in the colony and adopting out friendly strays and kittens, the colony stabilizes and begins to shrink over time.
