AC&C Weekly Pet Post: Meet Ivory, Tedeschi & Clover

New York (CBSNewYork) CBSNewYork.com and 1010 WINS are teaming up with Animal Care & Control of New York City to let you know about some of the adoptable animals looking for loving homes in the city's shelters, and, where AC&C's mobile adoption unit is headed with even more great pets.

This week, we're featuring  Ivory, Tedeschi & Clover.

Ivory (Photo Above - ID#: A1026537): This very sweet girl, about four years old, arrived at Animal Care & Control of NYC (AC&C) as a stray. Ivory can be a bit shy, but warm ups if you give her time! She's so easygoing she'd likely do well with even beginner dog guardians. Meet her at AC&C's Brooklyn Care Center, at 2336 Linden Boulevard.

Visit Tedeschi, who's about two years old, and she'll likely greet you with sociable meows and purrs, and bask in your attention! Meet her at AC&C's Manhattan Care Center, at 326 E. 110th Street.
