My story

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

If you are looking for a lazy dog stuck in a cat’s body, Stuffing is for you! He loves to sleep! Granted, he’s had a rough life outside and he deserves all the rest he needs. His former owners left him outside when they moved away and he was hiding in a garbage alley for several months before neighbors noticed he desperately needed help. Stuffing, appropriately named after being picked up during Thanksgiving, is a sweetheart. If it comes to fight or flight, he will opt for the latter. He’s never hissed or shown any sort of aggression. He is scared of unfamiliar noises at first and will find whatever hidey hole he sees and stuffing himself into it. Pun intended. But once he gets used to his new environment he is just a big potato. He will lounge until you show up and gladly welcome head scratches and body rubs. When he’s happy, he will bless you with his little chirpy meows, greeting you and thanking you for pets. He purrs a lot and loves company, and is low energy so far after a month in foster. He just got eye surgery, which is why his eyes are red!

This cat can be adopted with a friend or as a single cat.

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.
