Animal Haven

About

This nonprofit rescue organization has been connecting homeless cats and dogs with loving families throughout the New York City Tri-State area since 1967. The facility operates as more than a traditional shelter, providing comprehensive care that includes behavioral intervention programs, enrichment activities, and ongoing post-adoption support for both pets and their new families. Animals remain in their care for however long it takes to secure permanent placement in suitable homes. The organization maintains a straightforward adoption process and offers various ways for the community to get involved, including volunteer opportunities, foster care programs, and fundraising initiatives. They also operate a mobile adoption unit that visits pet stores across New York City, making their services more accessible to potential adopters. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, they rely on donations and community support to fund their medical care, feeding programs, and operational expenses that enable them to continue their rescue work throughout the region.
