I started NYC Teens for Animals when I was 12 years old as a way to inspire people to volunteer for rescues. As a volunteer myself, I wanted to post the animals I worked with through photography and videos to help them find homes and to raise money for their veterinary care.
NYC Teens for Animals is now a small, foster-based non-profit organization. My goals remain the same - to get homeless animals adopted into loving families.
We raise money for vet care, which is our first priority. We also encourage people to learn about TNR (Trap, Neuter, Release) to ensure that the community cats lead healthier lives and to curb overpopulation.
I'm always looking for new volunteers and foster homes!

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
