My story

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

Retina and Sclera are two adorable sisters who we think are around 1 year old. Both were born with a genetic condition where Sclera has no eyes and Retina has one. What I have come to learn about these sweet girls- no eyes, no problem! 

Retina can be shy at first and spends a bit of time hiding in a cozy place under the bed, but comes to you when she needs some cuddles. The second you pet her she purrs her little face off! She likes to talk and play with her sister, and if she’s feeling a little antisocial she’ll go and be by herself. She’s often found sleeping near her sister or human, and loves her treats! 

Sclera is an independent lady! Her personality shows the minute you meet her. She is curious and kind. She isn’t bothered by much and is always in the mood to play. She makes her way around very easily once she gets used to the space, and has never had a problem with the litter or finding her food. She likes to announce when she enters the room and will often chat to her sister or I as she walks around. She is a very ambitious cutie, and isn’t afraid to climb to new places. Sometimes she needs help getting down, but often figures it out just fine. She loves the feel of soil on her paws and I often find her sitting in my plants. 

They are the sweetest pair and the moment you look at them you melt.

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.
