Animal Care & Control of New York City, Marc Brodherson's Blog on Bigsight
February, 2011
I’m proud to contribute to Animal Care & Control of New York City (AC&C) by serving as a foster dog parent. As the rescue organization responsible for animal control services in New York City, AC&C is required by law to provide shelter for all of the city’s homeless pets. However, because the need exceeds the resources so greatly—more than 120 animals are left on the streets each day—AC&C often has more pets than the organization’s facilities can fully support. Since AC&C contracts with New York City, the organization is responsible for raising the funds to care for and ultimately place the animals that arrive. With an estimated 43,000 animals rescued every year, AC&C relies on service fees, donations, and the support of volunteers to provide the best care possible for animals in need.
By fostering, I have the opportunity to give dogs a better chance at finding permanent homes and help relieve overcrowding in the AC&C shelters. Frequently, fostering means providing time and care to animals that might not yet meet adoption requirements, such as mothers nursing litters, puppies too young to be spayed or neutered, or dogs that require medical attention because of injury or illness. Additionally, some foster animals thrive away from the stress of a shelter environment and need homes while they wait for adoption. I’m happy to open up my home to animals in need, and I gain the valuable friendships of my canine companions as well.
Since 1995, the not-for-profit organization has grown to become the largest pet adoption organization in the Northeast. With facilities that operate in all five boroughs, AC&C works with residents to protect and promote the welfare of both pets and people in New York City. To learn more about how you can help AC&C or to find out how to adopt a pet, please visit www.nycacc.org.
