The Animal Project
Our Mission
The Animal Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue and adoption group in New York City. Dedicated to finding cats and kittens their loving, forever homes, Carol Moon and volunteers have run the organization for over 15 years. We work in and around the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
We are partnered with the Petco Foundation and host adoption events every Saturday from 2–6pm at the store on 92nd St and Broadway. There, you can meet our cats in person and chat with Carol and volunteers.
Adoption Policy
Our adoption process is as follows:
1. You can fill out a pre-adoption application: https://form.jotform.com/201353227523042.
2. Carol, our director, will call you to talk about the application and will then call references.
3. We'll conduct a virtual or in-person home visit to make sure your residence is safe for cats.
4. You'll pay an adoption fee of $150 per cat/kitten and sign final adoption forms.
Please note that kittens have to be adopted in pairs. The only exception to this rule is if you have another young cat in the household that a kitten can befriend.
Interested in a particular kitty? Please email us directly at animalprojectvolunteer@gmail.com with subject "[Cat Name] adoption inquiry."
