AC&C Weekly Pet Post: Meet Randolf, Fawn and Martha
New York (CBSNewYork) CBSNewYork and 1010 WINS are teaming up with Animal Care & Control of New York City to let you know about some of the adoptable animals in the city's shelters looking for loving homes, and where AC&C's mobile adoption unit is headed with even more great pets.
This week, we're featuring Fawn the cat, Martha the dog and Randolph the bunny.
Fawn (ID#: A1025276-photo above): This super sweet feline will greet you at the front of her kennel and bask in your attention. Fawn is a beautiful tuxedo kitty of about one year. Meet her and other wonderful cats up for adoption at AC&C's Brooklyn Care Center, at 2336 Linden Boulevard.
Martha (ID#: A1025412): A volunteer describes Martha as "the most wonderful lapdog." This sociable and playful pup—she's approximately two years old—came to Animal Care & Control of NYC (AC&C) as stray but is ready for a loving home. Meet Martha and other fabulous dogs at AC&C's Manhattan Care Center, at 326 E. 110th Street.
Randolf (ID#: A1020927) Randolf came to Animal Care & Control of NYC as a stray from Queens back in November. A volunteer describes this approximately 14-month-old cutie at "a love bug" who "always has the welcome mat out! He's extremely friendly, and loves all forms of affection. Cheek rubs, head rubs, kisses - whatever, bring it on! When you close his cage door, he tries valiantly to open it again so the loving can continue." Meet Randolf and other great rabbits up for adoption at AC&C's Manhattan Care Center, at 326 E. 110th Street.
If you're interested in one of the animals featured here, email AC&C's Adoption team at adoption@nycacc.org with the animal's name and "A#", or head directly to the Care Center where the animal is located. Please note, animals featured here may already be placed by the time you arrive, but there are hundreds of great cats, dogs, and rabbits looking for loving homes every day! You can view available animals online, and at the Care Centers, AC&C Adoption Counselors will help you find the best match.
You can also meet your new best friend at AC&C's Mobile Adoption Center, which travels throughout the city.
