My story

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

Olivia is a super sweet ball of kitten energy. She has one goal in mind - getting scratches from your hand. You wave your hand around, and she will stop at nothing to get to your hand. Once she is accustomed to your presence, she will allow you to pet her and spoil her to her heart’s content, and she won’t leave you alone until she is content. Olivia loves her dangly ball toys and will pursue her ball toy victims until they are crushed! Olivia also loves to eat, so make sure you give her plenty of food and water.

Olivia has cerebellar hypoplasia, which basically means she is a little wobbly and walks a little silly in her back legs, but other than that, she is a perfect kitten.

Olivia would love to liven up your home with goofy kitten energy if you allow her!

This cat has a mild case of Cerebellar Hypoplasia, a neurological condition in which the cerebellum is smaller than usual or not completely developed. Affectionately known as a Wobbly Cat, this disorder is not progressive or contagious, and doesn’t cause any serious health problems – she just has a distinctive, quirky (and honestly very cute) way of walking around. She sometimes trips over her own feet, but she gets right back up and keeps going! The Internet loves wobbly cats, so she has real viral video potential -- and we have lots of resources to help you get her setup successfully.

This cat needs to be adopted with an age-appropriate friend -- applications for them as a single kitten will not be answered.

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.
