This foster-based animal rescue organization operates as a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to finding permanent homes for abandoned dogs and cats throughout New York City. The organization maintains an office location on East 9th Street, though potential adopters should note that animals are housed with foster families rather than at the physical office space. Their comprehensive approach includes providing thorough veterinary treatment for all animals in their care before placement. The rescue focuses on responsible pet ownership principles and emphasizes careful matching between animals and adoptive families to ensure long-term compatibility. They handle a substantial volume of animals annually, including dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles, with operations supported by a network of dedicated foster volunteers. The organization offers both traditional adoption services and foster-to-adopt programs for families who want to ensure a good fit before finalizing the adoption process. Prospective pet owners can access separate application processes for dogs and cats, along with comprehensive resources and guidance for new pet owners. The rescue maintains active community engagement through fundraising events, volunteer opportunities, and educational programs, while also providing ongoing support to help families successfully integrate their new pets into their homes.
