My story

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

These kittens must be up on the trends because they are indeed very demure and very mindful, thoroughly enjoying the transition from Brat Summer to Sweater Weather (often by sleeping on them). Astrid and Robada are, without a doubt, the friendliest and cuddliest kittens you’ll ever meet. If you sit in their presence, you can expect them each to take up residence on either thigh (or either shoulder!) within a matter of seconds, gazing at you lovingly 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. 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 stare off into space, gnaw on her toys in focused contentment, and scream at you when you adjust a little bit as if to say “hey what’s the big idea? I was just getting comfortable!” She also loves anything that moves on a screen and will gladly join you for an Instagram bed rot sesh or for your daily freewriting during National Novel Writing Month.

Robada (the tabby with a color palette straight out of Old Hollywood), on the other hand, will convince you at times that she has a full human brain in her little walnut head. She’ll leap up to greet you if you sit close enough to the ground or politely request to be held, depending on her mood. While her sister likes to burrow into the folds of sheets and legs, Robada’s preferred nap spot is just northeast of the sternum, so close to your face that you can feel her purrs vibrate your cheek. The only thing Robada doesn’t like are closed doors that keep her from spending time with you - she’ll reach under their frames to see if that will do anything (unfortunately for her, it will not).

These two cats love each other, big cats, and most of all 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.
