My story

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

James is a scared boy who was left outside when his owners moved away. He needs time to learn that humans are good, but is making progress daily. He will need someone who can be patient with him, and let him come out of his shell at his own pace. This boy just needs love and patience (and someone to teach him that humans come bearing treats). The best way to become James' friend is to play with him, he absolutely loves wand toys, and will warm up quite quickly with some play time!

James is FeLV+ and needs to be adopted as a single cat or with another feline leukemia positive companion. Cats that are FeLV+ can live normal and healthy lives when provided with quality care such as a balanced diet and yearly wellness exam, however most likely their lifespans will be much shorter than other cats. We’d be happy to talk more about this!

This cat can be adopted as a single cat or with a calm companion.

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.
