Animal Rescue of Queens

To accomplish its mission, the organization purchased a building located in Long Island City, Queens and will be converting the space into an animal adoption center. Adoptable dogs and cats will receive a high level of care and will be taught the skills needed to make transitioning into a home as seamless as possible for them and their adopters. To do this, the center will be set up with rooms and not cages. The rooms will contain furnishings, just as would be seen in a home environment. Dogs and cats are social creatures and need playgroups, co-habitation, encouragement based training techniques and classic conditioning for behavior modification. The adoption center will also be a destination for animal education in support of people in the community. By providing non-judgmental assistance to our neighbors on topics like animal care, low-cost or free spay and neuter surgeries, and animal advocacy to prevent animals from being separated from their families.
