My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Delulu is a small friendly lady with an adorable wild-eyed look. She demands to sit on her human’s lap and be the center of attention, and enjoys playing with a variety of toys. She is also something of a screen-junkie and intently watches the mouse cursor move on screen. While generally very sweet, she is also particular about being touched and will cry and swat or nip to let you know what she needs. This can be startling because she will do it while purring, but she typically does not leave a mark, and her nails are very easy to trim. Adequate playtime and consistent feeding schedule help minimize this. She is OK being picked up briefly and likes to either sleep in bed with her human or nearby on a chair.

Delulu likes wet food mixed with water, simple dry food puzzles, and Temptations treats. She warms up quickly to strangers with some playtime. Delulu is quiet and rarely meows. Though she enjoys daily playtime, she also sleeps much of the time, so she is very manageable to take care of. The greatest challenge caring for Delulu is making sure she gets all the lap access she desires!

This cat would prefer to be adopted alone and be the only cat in the home.

More about this rescue

Our rescue group was formed in December 2007, but all our Board Members have had extensive experience rescuing and working with abandoned animals. We often work with other rescue organizations to find appropriate and safe foster and adoptive homes for our pet clients. We regularly go to areas with abandoned animals and collect them. The animals are taken to a licensed veterinarian examined, treated and spayed or neutered. Every effort is made to work with the animal and our foster and adoptive families to find a suitable forever home.

For those animals who are truly wild and feral, we release the animal in a safe and secure location after it has recovered from its medical treatment. We also work with certified wildlife rehabilitators to rescue injured and orphaned wildlife. Our organization is focused on improving the welfare of the abandoned animals in need of help in Brooklyn. In furthering that goal, our resources are focused on the animals.

Aside from a few minimal overhead costs such as our website and phone services, our entire budget is spent on animal care such as medical and food costs.
