My story

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

Come meet Hazel, the perfect New York roommate. This distinguished lady has seen the world and knows what she likes (as any well-lived lady does!). She likes to hang out with you - her favorite spots are the plushy blanket on the bed or in the pocket between two pillows on the sofa - but she's willing to focus on her own scheduled tasks (mostly napping) to give you space to do your own activities. Her ideal spot is sitting nearby for pets and snuggles when she decides it's time. She’s always up for a conversation (or petting session) but also happy to give you alone time to use the bathroom - usually a full five minutes before she gets up to check on you. A gorgeous kitty with deep green and yellow eyes (one of each color) and soft black and white fur, she would have been a favorite of Rueben’s for his classical paintings. Hazel doesn't love to be lifted or held unless she allows it, but loves pets when she's in the mood. 

Hazel needs to be on a wet food diet only eating a special prescription dry food as she has a history of bladder stones if she eats regular dry food (and she loves her dry food). Other than this food restriction she is a very healthy young kitty who is looking forward to finding her forever family. 

This cat can be adopted as a single cat or with a calm companion.

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.
