Our primary mission is to perform trap-neuter-return (TNR) as the most humane solution to the homeless cat problem.
In the process of doing TNR we come across many friendly stray cats and kittens. We don’t return them to the streets, as we do with feral cats. Instead, we take them into foster care and commit ourselves to placing them in loving homes.
We also rescue animals from the streets, basements, alleyways and abandoned buildings of Queens and other NYC neighborhoods, and from desperate situations, where their lives may be in danger. And, despite our name, we also rescue dogs, birds, rabbits and other wildlife, including the occasional reptile.
All the cats and kittens we have available for adoption have been de-wormed, de-flea’d, tested for FIV/FELV and have at least had their initial vaccinationss Adults and older kittens are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Young kittens may have to come back for their spay/neuter surgery.
