My story

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

Cosimo found her way right into the heart of a kind soul who searched for help to bring this darling off the street. Daily he went back to feed her until he was able to find her the help she needed. She was always right on time for dinner; waiting for him with a sweet chirp and happy disposition. She waited in "their" spot knowing she could trust this person.

We're so happy this gentleman didn't give up on finding her a safe place to land. Now, Stray H.E.L.P. will complete the rescue by finding her the special family she can call her own. She is very gentle, and has presented well with other cats she sees. 

Oh! She's also a professional biscuit maker and has an adorable curl to her tail!

We estimate her birthday to be May 5, 2024. Cosimos was rescued from the Town of Poughkeepsie, NY. 

Our required adoption donation is $150 per kitten or $125 per cat (older than 9 months). All our rescues are up to date on shots, microchipped, tested for FIV/FeLV/Heartworm. They are dewormed, treated for parasites and free of fleas. Each is spayed or neutered and given a rabies vaccination. 

An application must be completed to be considered to adopt from Stray HELP. You can download it from HERE OR directly ONLINE If your application is approved we conduct a home visit for final approval of adoption. To view more pictures of cats and kittens in our program visit us on FaceBook.

More about this rescue

Our mission is to rescue and care for stray and homeless animals while providing humane education to the community.
We work with members of the community to help cats in need. We conduct trap/neuter/return and place projects and train home and business owners on how to properly care for free roaming cats on their property and in their neighborhoods.
We focus in southern Dutchess County, but help people throughout Dutchess, Putnam and Orange counties by connecting them with local rescues that can work with them, loaning equipment, coordinating spay/neuter clinics and offering guidance.
