Animal Care and control Brooklyn
« on: June 13, 2016, 05:20:19 PM »
Not preaching just informing on how bad it is at AC & C.  A woman from the JH area listed her 11 month old orange female cat for re homing on Craigslist.  I answered the ad offering to help but she was in such a rush she took the cat to AC & C on June 10th.  It took me until today to find her online because AC & C changed her name from Luna to Saffron and you have to have her number A1056682.  After only 2 1/2 days she is now on death row and will be euthanized tomorrow morning.  The only way she can get adopted now is if a rescue group "pulls" her.  I tried calling both AC & C and rescue groups but only got voicemails and email contacts.  I wanted to find out if there was some physical reason for euthanizing an 11 month old house cat and why they deemed her unadoptable.  I am writing this because I think more people should know how bad this system is.  There is no Care here. Every morning at least a dozen if not more animals, both healthy cats and dogs are euthanized  A while ago when now comptroller Scott Stringer was running for office he sent out a petition with a good plan to change the way AC & C was run, but promptly forgot all about once elected.
My point here is PLEASE do not take any animal to AC & C.  It is almost certainly a death sentence.

thank you for listening.

Thank you for posting this! I think some are in denial and think that their pet is special and make themselves believe they will be adopted. I have found many animals over the years and fostered them, found fosters or adopted them out. I think their should be a list where people who give up animals are not allowed to have another one.  I know in the eyes of the law they are considered "property" but they are living beings.

Update:  This cat is on the Urgent TO BE put to death row list so she is not being euthanized tomorrow morning.  Apparently there is a watchdog group that posts cats in jeopardy.  If anyone is interested in adopting her please let me know.  I don't have any information regarding her personality I can send you a photo or you can go to the AC & C website and type in her number A1056682
I am told that surrenders have no specific hold time.  The whole system is crazy and convoluted to work with.

I volunteered at Brooklyn CACC until my heart couldn't take it anymore.  It is hell on earth for any animal that ends up there.

The only thing I can say in their defense - because there are certainly people working there that care about animals, is that they MUST accept every animal that comes through their doors.  That means they are constantly overloaded - especially in the warmer months, when people too cheap or too clueless to spay/neuter their pet, bring in box after box after box of litters of kittens and puppies.

Hi! I just emailed the Animal Care & Control website regarding Saffron/Luna. I would like to adopt her,  but I will be out of town from Saturday, July 2nd  to Sunday, July 10th. I'm not sure if she is still there or not--or if they would be willing to hold her for that long. According to the website, she is still there, but I am not sure how accurate that is....

anyone interested in adopting or fostering Jaden his time is up today at 12N He is on the Pets on Death Row list  Unfortunately he was a "gift" and after four months the people decided that he was too active and dumped him at AC & C
you can email helpcats@urgentpodr.org if interested.
Thanks.

I actually ran into Scott Stringer when he was trying to get votes near the Jkson Hts 74th street Roosevelt ave train station and BEGGED him to stop the killing, again promises he did not keep!
