Please, pass on! There is still a CRISIS at Animal
Care and Control! Food donations needed as well as towels
and blankets
It seems that New York City's Department of
Health believes that food for the city's 40,000 stray and
abandoned animals is a luxury, and in a dramatic slash of
the budget for Animal Care and Control, the agency
contracted to house these unfortunate souls, all CANNED,
soft food is no longer provided except by donation. This
means that the seniors, young dogs, and nursing mothers are
getting dry kibble soaked in water or dry kibble plain and
presented as is.
No one at ACC WANTS this--the budget was
imposed on them-and they are working overtime to bring in
corporate donations of both cash and goods. But, in the
meantime, we need your help!
Please consider donating canned
dog food to our city's neediest animals. These poor
creatures arrive by the dozens each day---victims of
cruelty, neglect, and circumstance. They have almost nothing
to look forward to in the days or weeks they'll remain at
the city shelter, and too many of them will never see the
inside of a home again.
If you are able and willing to help,
I guarantee that your donation will go directly to those who
need you the most. You can drop off the canned doggie food
we are currently OUT of (as in, none!! and will run out of
cat food shortly)--as well as any blankets, treats, cat
food, cat toys, small towels/cage comforters, and "adopt me"
vests to the following locations:
AC&C — Manhattan Animal
Care Center
326 East 110th Street
New York, NY 10029
(between 1st and 2nd Avenues)
Development Department
Animal
Care & Control of New York City
11 Park Place, Suite 805
New
York, NY 10007

2336
Linden Boulevard
Brooklyn, NY 11208
AC&C — Staten Island
Animal Care Center
3139 Veterans Road West
Staten Island, NY

THANK YOU! I know this is a frustrating time for all
of us, but these animals did not ask for their fate, and
they have only our kindness to rely on. Please, pass this
message on!
UPDATE, UPDATE!!
Petropolis, one of New York's
best and most knowledgeable pet supply stores, will give a 5
percent discount for every can purchased for donation to
ACC. Food can then be left at the store and she will deliver
to the shelter. The owner is one amazing woman and a
champion for animals!! Please, show your love for NYC's
animals and the people who support our beloved strays!

There
are hundreds of animals being euthanized everyday - before
purchasing a pet consider all of the abandoned, homeless
pets that are in desperate need of a home.
