ADOPTION AND RESCUE GROUPS On Staten Island
Did you know that 56% of dogs and 71% of cats that enter animal shelters are euthanized? Adopt don't shop! Daily adoptions are hosted by Petsmart in Port Richmond, Feline Rescue at The Pet Shoppe in Dongan Hills, P.L.U.T.O. at Merry Mutts in Travis and the ACC in Charleston. Or please check out the following local rescues:
Anarchy Animal Rescue
Anarchy Animal Rescue was founded in December of 2010 out of need and desire to help address two major animal crises in this country: unwanted adoptable pets and the mistreatment and abuse of animals due to puppy mills. Our goal is to find good homes for as many pets as we can take in, care for medically and place in responsible homes.
