My story

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

Domino Low is a special boy who has been through a lot in his short life. He was found wandering outside at a Brooklyn housing complex, and was originally trapped to be TNR'ed (trapped-neutered-returned). However, we saw a glimmer of love and affection in him, and we wanted to let him try to see if he wanted to live indoors. 

Turns out, he does! This boy clearly was an indoor cat who was abused by humans and has had to learn to trust again. He is extremely sweet and enjoys pets, but can be startled by loud noises and sudden touches. He's never aggressive, just clearly scared. He sometimes flinches when touched which is likely a leftover behavior when touches meant some not so great things for him. With slow and gentle movements, he leans into pets and clearly really enjoys them. Domino is also very playful, and adores other cats (who also help him build his confidence). His favorite things include cuddling with his feline friends, napping in the sunlight, and doing some playing with his favorite toys. 

If you are willing to be patient and let this boy come out of his shell, he is sure to be a great friend to you and your resident cat. 

This cat needs to be adopted with a friend -- applications for them as a single cat will not be answered.

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.
