My story

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

Chirp’s a lap cat with a lot of personality. He acts like a sweet angel baby (and he is one), but can definitely get up to some mischief of his own making. He loved to sit on cardboard and people’s coats instead of the fluffy beds at the cafe. Sometimes he reacts a bit spicy, but it’s mostly because he got overstimulated living with the other cats at the cafe.

He’s currently king of his own castle at his foster’s place, and they think the best home would be a similar environment without other cats or children. Since being at the cafe, he’s opened up to become a lot more playful and cuddly, now that he’s less stressed and doesn’t have to guard his food or status. Currently he’s working on his play socialization - making huge strides in the less-nippy-direction every week. He loves watching birds out the window and is very vocal when he plays! He also loves enrichment activities, like finding treats in his tunnel, or one of the many cardboard boxes they have around. Chirp loves company, and sits right beside his current foster as they work from home most days. 

This cat would prefer to be adopted alone and be the only cat in the home.

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.
