 Adoption Spotlight: Bubba
Allergic to peanut butter? So is Bubba, who an ACC volunteer describes as "a bright-and-sort-of-googly-eyed SWEETHEART. He might be shy for a minute or two, but he can't keep his goofy, loving ways under wraps for long." See Bubba on Facebook >>

 Happy Tail: Lilly
We recently received a great update on Lilly, who was 14 when she was adopted from our Brooklyn Care Center in November 2015. "I love Lilly so much, and I am so glad I was able give this little senior lady a second chance," her adopter writes. "I hope all the senior kitties get the same opportunity.
