Our Emergency Rescue team is helping our shelter partners in the south that have been seriously affected by Hurricane Helene, and are directly in the path of Hurricane Milton, by clearing their shelters to help make room for those animals displaced by these tragic storms. With our Bianca's Furry Friends Feline Adoption Center filled to capacity with more than 230 cats and kittens, we're waiving adoption fees for all cats and kittens through Monday, October 14.*
At just five months old, little Tommy’s heart was laboring tirelessly to keep him alive. Born with a severe heart murmur that put him at risk of sudden death, Tommy desperately needed surgical intervention to mend his heart defect. Our journey to save Tommy began when our shelter partner, Second Chance Animal Rescue in South Carolina, notified us of his condition, knowing that we would spare no effort to help. Tommy was quickly transferred into the hands of our Rescue Team, who transported him on our Mobile Unit to our Pet Health Centers.

At Animal League America, we are profoundly grateful for the partnership of donors like Abdul Isahack, who recently made a generous gift in memory of his late wife, Bharnie. Abdul and Bharnie’s support of our organization began in 1984 when they came to our Port Washington Adoption Center and found Lance. A clever shepherd mix, Lance was their loyal companion for 19years. Then in 2005, they adopted Kiwi, an affectionate Labrador rescue, and she was a beloved member of their household until her passing two years ago.
Adjusting to a shelter environment after losing the only home they’ve ever known has taken Pearl and Piper lots of resilience, but these precious felines still have an abundance of affection to share.

At North Shore Animal League America, we believe in caring for all animals in need, for however long or short a time that may be.

For a loveable senior tabby named Cutie, the program has been a blessing.
