My story

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

Winky is a friendly, handsome boy who a non-cat person described as the "chillest" cat they've ever met. Though he was found outside, he did not belong and is quickly settling into his next chapter as a house panther.  Winky's perfect day includes  belly rubs, being held like a baby, looking out the window, his bed, his human's bed, catnip, cat TV, and attention.

He is extremely patient with his foster siblings who aren't used to sharing space yet and he hasn't reciprocated their hisses even once. He's very gentle and ragdoll-like so would likely be good with kids and a chill dog.

Winky suddenly showed up among a group of well-established street cats and distinguished himself by his friendly nature. He came inside when offered treats and was shortly scooped up to come inside permanently where he seems to belong.

He's about 1 year old, neutered, UTD on vaccines, negative for FIV/FeLV, and treated for fleas and parasites.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Interested adopters first fill out an adoption application, after which they can visit our animals in their foster homes. If they would like to adopt and their application is approved, they then complete an adoption contract. We also ask for an adoption fee to help us continue our work.

Please email us at adopt@brooklynanimalaction.org or contact the e-mail in the individual listing if you are interested in meeting one of our rescued animals. We hold Saturday adoption events at Unleashed by Petco in Park Slope and Petsmart on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn (check our website and Facebook page for more information) and have cats at Bushy Tails pet store in Bushwick and Petsmart.
