My story

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

Astrid and Robada are, without a doubt, the friendliest and cuddliest kittens you’ll ever meet. The moment you walk through the door, they’ll run to greet you - Astrid leading the charge to offer her little head for a kiss and Robada close behind, rolling over for a belly rub. Sit down, and within seconds, they’ll each claim a thigh (or a shoulder!), gazing up at you with their big green eyes.

When not enjoying the lap cat life, Astrid and Robada enjoy snuggling and playing with one another, tussling lightly with frequent pauses to check that the other is okay to proceed. They also love to explore, toddling forth with all the bravery of a jungle cat, only to return to you moments later to make sure you’re coming with them. You’ll never lose these two because they’ll trust you and see you as their home base from the get-go.

Between the two of them, Astrid (the charcoal darling with the white socks, gloves, ascot, and charming fur mustache) is the goofball. She loves to gnaw on her toys in focused contentment or initiate a game of “chase the ping-pong ball.” Her current favorite? A coiled spring, which she’ll bat around before proudly depositing it in your lap as a gift. She’s also a screen-time enthusiast, gladly joining you in bed or on the couch for an Instagram scroll or TV sesh. While Robada likes to burrow into the folds of sheets and legs, Astrid’s preferred nap spot is just northeast of the sternum -  so close to your face that you’ll feel her purrs vibrate against your cheek.

Robada, (the tabby with a color palette straight out of Old Hollywood), is the more demure of the two and will convince you, at times, that she has a full human brain in her little walnut head. She’ll leap up to greet you or politely request to be held, depending on her mood. She makes the sweetest little cooing noises while she explores, and the only thing she dislikes are closed doors that separate her from you—she’ll even try reaching under them in hopes of undoing the injustice (unfortunately for her, it never works).

These two kittens love each other, big cats, and - above all - their humans. They will cherish whatever place they call their forever 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.
