For more information on adopting please read the following:

DO NOT call the shelter and say you are adopting unless you truly intend on physically going to the shelter to adopt the dog. It ties up phones lines and is a waste of the staff's time to explain the adoption procedure over the phone for someone who is purposely not going to show up. They need every free second of their time to answer calls, assist actual adopters, process intakes, and care for the animals. More importantly, they will note the dog’s file that an adopter is en route which will prevent an actual adopter from saving the dog. This is considered a "fake adoption" hold and that is how dogs fall through the cracks and end up being killed.

For more information on a particular dog, email adoption@nycacc.org but ONLY if serious about adopting, and ONLY if you are able to GO TO the shelter in-person. Please do not email for status updates... the only thing you will accomplish is spamming their in boxes and causing REAL adopter emails to go un-noticed. Contact the NYC ACC at (212) 788-4000 for further automated instructions.
 
 
Bud the gentle giant says good evening! He is a Nebelung cat (first time we've ever written that!) who someone "bought" and then surrendered to Cats In The Cradle. He is a regal 3 year-old with long, silky fur, and is obviously looking for a belly rub. Find out about bringing Bud home on his Adopt NY page: www.adoptny.org/cats/bud/

Some are lost.
Some are abandoned.
Some may never make it out.

But, ALL need the warmth of our love.

Introducing the "Warm a Stray" project. For every shirt purchased, we will give a blanket to an animal in need at O.C. Animal Care, the largest shelter on the West Coast. This is animal ID#A1220706 and is one of the recipients of our warm blankets for the holidays.
