My story

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

Meet Vitalia and Voltaire, a pair of 2-year-old sweethearts! These two take a little bit of time to warm up, but with a little bit of patience and lots of head scritches, their silly, cuddly personalities will come out. 

Vitalia (more gray coloring on her face) is a chatty and playful lady once she’s comfortable. At first, she’s shy and will prefer to hide somewhere. Giving her a few different boxes/hiding spots can help her feel more comfortable. But even when hiding, she is obsessed with scratches. Just give her patience and affection, and her true personality will come out. She’s a chatty girl who is not afraid to ask for what she wants! She loves to spend her time napping on the couch, but when she wants to play, get pet, or have a treat, she’s not afraid to come let you know. Once she’s comfortable, you’ll get to hear her purr - which is so loud for such a little kitty! 

Voltaire (mostly white face, bigger of the two) is the biggest cuddlebug. Like his sister, he takes a little bit of time to warm up and just needs a little patience. He’s a bit skittish, but his need for attention and pets always comes out on top. Once he’s comfortable, he wants nothing more than to climb right into bed with you and snuggle up. He is obsessed with the laser pointer, and nothing gets him more excited than a simple spring toy. A perfect day for Voltaire would be snuggling right up with you in the morning, running around with his sister, napping the day away, and lots of play time before bed (where, you guessed it, he will want to snuggle). 

This pair would do best in a home that will give them the time and patience they need. A home that has experience with cats would be ideal.

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.
