LIST OF RESCUES APPROVED TO PULL FROM NYC ACC SHELTERS
While all rescues listed do pull for individuals, Rescues with an asterisk (*) may pull euth list animals for fosters/adopters if apps are received and in the process of being approved. Please inquire with the rescue for their current placement requirements.
****** If you haven’t read our “Must Read” section on how the process works, please do so here. *****
If you HAVE read our “Must Read” section, you can find contact information for rescue groups below.
Placing applications with more than one group increases the chances of someone being able to see and respond quickly– this improves your chances of being approved. When at all possible, please try to fill out applications and get approved to adopt or foster BEFORE the animal is on “the list” and it is at the 11th hour!
*CLICK links under an individual rescue name. This will bring you to their website. You can then find contact info, which at least includes an email, if not a phone. A LOT OF RESCUES HAVE APPLICATIONS RIGHT ON THEIR SITE.
*When writing them, be sure to indicate the animal id number, name and shelter location in the SUBJECT line. You must include all contact info for yourself, including email and phone. Explain to them that the animal is on the ACC euthanasia list for the next morning and that you would like to foster/adopt.
