Animal Care Centers of NYC - Brooklyn

It's almost two years since the day my wife and I adopted our cat Cubs. His story was a mystery except for he was a stray in East NY. When we entered the acc we walked in the back first knowing we were looking for a cat only.and there were numbers assigned to the felines. A 3 or 4 meant be careful and they need more love and patience. A 1 and 2 meant a better assessment. Cubs was a 2. In the back it was all 3 an 4. We walked around and there was a rabbit section and we had just recently lost our Rabbit to illness and knowing how sensitive rabbit's are we decided not to replace her. Back in the front was Cubs who only two days before was neutered was still missing some hair on the belly. The staff was kind and caring and if spayed your new family member can go home the same day. There were

I'm completely disgusted by the NYCACC. They masquerade as a place of refuge, but in reality, they're operating a slaughterhouse for healthy, adoptable animals. It's heartbreaking and infuriating to see how many sweet, perfect dogs and cats are put on the "kill list" every single day simply for space or convenience. If you keep up with their daily "Kill List" on social media it becomes painfully obvious that this isn't about saving lives anymore; more likely a corrupt, money-driven scheme. Where is all their funding going? It certainly isn't going toward rehabilitation or finding homes. They seem incentivized to kill rather than save, and it reeks of a "for-profit" mentality that has no place in animal welfare. NYC deserves a shelter that actually cares about animals, not a system that vi

I adopted my kitten, Cookie, from here and they were absolutely lovely, really helped me out, and made sure all new owners attended a group meeting for our animals! Cookie was only in the shelter for 3 days before I adopted her! Update 02/10/23 : I adopted her 8 months ago and she's still the sweetest. They had warned me that she may be shy or scared and she had passed issues with hissing. At this point she's a cuddle bug who sleeps with me every night, she's incredibly smart, and I've almost never heard her hiss. We were patient with her, as you need to be with all pets, but I'm glad she's adjusted so well with the other cats at home. My partner recently decided to adopt a kitten after their cat had passed and I could not be more excited for Cookie to have a new friend from the same she

I went here just to browse didn’t expect I’d go home with a sweet, calm, super gentle and cute affectionate cat. Her name was Aardo but I named her Ashy. She’s super soft. An associate named Jean helped me with the process. She’s very kind, polite, patient and thorough with explaining. Ashy, who is super spoiled now, she only meows when she’s hungry lol. She’s potty trained and very calm and friendly. At first she was super sweet and rolls over to be tickled. 2nd night she’s at home she slept in my bed and wants to snuggle and always holding on to my arms and glued her body to mine. She’s clingy but lately she’s been sleeping and hiding. I noticed the sneezing on the first night but ignored it. Days past her mouth starts to drool on side but clear. I emailed NYACC to ask for suggestions f

I adopted a cat who was owner surrendered and formerly known as "Timmy" on 12/5/23. I rescued him on 12/16/23 and renamed him "Neko". He is the most talkative, intelligent, and affectionate cat. He has a brother who I also rescued from a backyard that is younger than him, and they get along just fine. Whoever surrendered him and you are reading this, please know he has a great family and is so loved! Thank you so much, Smitchell for your help with the adoption process! ☻
