Queens Pet Adoption Agencies and Rescue Organizations All of the agencies below are part of the Mayor's Alliance for New York City's Animals (www.animalalliancenyc.org.) If you've adopted an animal from any of these organizations, volunteer at any of these organizations or just want to give a "shout out" to them, please tell us your story by emailing us at newyorktails@aol.com or sending it to New York Tails/Queens Tails, P.O. Box 287414, New York, NY 10128-0024. An important reminder-adopting a pet is a big decision, and so is surrendering one. Many of the agencies listed below are, unfortunately, often filled to capacity and there are times they simply do not have any space to take more surrendered pets. But all of the agencies below, however, can always use your help-and there are lots of ways to help! Volunteering your time on adoption days, providing a temporary foster home for a pet waiting for placement, donations of towels and other gently-used household items-all always welcome! (And, for those who are able to donate money, donations are usually are tax-deductible.)

They trap stray/feral cats, get them spayed/neutered with the Humane Society Feral Cat Program or the ASPCA Cares Mobile Spay/Neuter clinic. After the surgery, they hold the cat 3-5 days for recovery and then return them to where they came from. http://www.savekitty.org Spay Neuter Intervention Project (SNIP) Every first Friday of each month, the ASPCA donates the services of a mobile spay neuter van to Spay Neuter Intervention Project (SNIP). On these days, SNIP can be found in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brownsville, East New York, or South Jamaica, providing "free" spay/neuter and vaccinations to junkyard dogs. http://www.snipnyc.org |
