Remy’s rescue was the result of compassion, persistence and dedicated teamwork. From the FDNY paramedics who first found her, to the shelter partners who followed protocol, and finally to the staff at North Shore Animal League America who made sure she didn’t fall through the cracks, this was a life saved because people worked together and refused to give up.
With Kitten Season in full swing our Bianca's Furry Friends Feline Adoption Center in Port Washington, NY is filled with cats and kittens in need of responsible, loving homes — with more arriving every day!

Our deepest sympathies are with the people and communities of Central Texas facing devastating loss from the recent flooding. At North Shore Animal League America, we join the nation in mourning this tragedy and extend our heartfelt support to everyone affected. Alongside the human suffering, we also recognize the urgent and growing needs of animals impacted by this disaster. We are actively monitoring the situation and stand ready to assist our shelter and rescue partners as needed, both now and in the long term aftermath. To everyone impacted by this crisis: you are in our hearts. We are committed to doing our part as recovery efforts continue.
It’s finally summer, with a capital S! We’ve already had a severe heatwave, the roses are in full bloom, the beaches are crowded, and I agree with my resident kitties, Helen Rose and Miss Petunia: there’s nothing sweeter than a relaxing “airing-out” on a summer afternoon! My cats are among the lucky ones, and so am I. We live in comfort with air conditioning and clean, fresh water. But of course, I’m always thinking about those less fortunate. Homeless animals struggle terribly in the sweltering heat, but there are ways we can make a lifesaving difference for the stray cats in our community.
As the summer heat intensifies, the risk of heat stroke in our pets becomes a significant concern. Heat stroke in pets can occur quickly and can lead to serious consequences if not promptly recognized and treated. It's important to know the signs that your pet is in distress and how to help them quickly.
The smoke has cleared in California, but sadly, the animal shelters have not. Months after devastating wildfires displaced thousands, shelters in Riverside County remain dangerously overcrowded. With space running out, the risk of euthanasia was becoming a heartbreaking reality. North Shore Animal League America couldn’t let that happen.
