Subway Kittens Find a Home
In August, the duo was rescued from the subway tracks and brought to Animal Care & Control of NYC's Brooklyn Care Center. They received socialization and some much-need TLC in AC&C foster homes. Arthur, the tabby, needed to be hospitalized at one point due to his weakened immune system, and he was also treated for a severe eye infection. This medical care was made possible by AC&C's Special Treatment and Recovery (STAR) Fund.
As the couple told New York Magazine's Daily Intelligencer, "there are tons of worthy animals out there still looking for loving homes, some of whom were probably rescued in the subway but without the excitement of shutting down the B and Q for hours. If this unusual story spurs some adopters who are on the fence about taking the plunge and adopting a cat or a dog, then that's the best possible ending." We couldn't agree more. Thank you, Katherine and Keith, for adopting Arthur and August, and for spreading the word about adoption! |
