3 To See At ACC: Meet Macy, Christina And Bubble!
New York (CBSNewYork) CBSNewYork.com and 1010 WINS have teamed up with Animal Care Centers 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 ACC's mobile adoption units are headed with even more great pets.
This week, we're featuring Meet Macy, Christina And Bubble!
Christina (A1069660 - photo and video above) "Rubenesque. That's our Christina," notes an ACC volunteer. "Fed well with love, her family consisted of two young human children with whom she was relaxed and played gently. Lively in play with both people and other dogs, soft and easy in quiet time, Christina is the perfect combination of grace, elegance, fun, beauty and love." Meet this approximately four-year-old cutie at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.
Macy (A1025717) This beautiful tabby is about three years old. Macy's previous owner describes her as friendly, affectionate, playful, mellow, confident, and talkative with a low activity level. Meet Macy at ACC's Brooklyn Care Center, 2336 Linden Boulevard.
Bubble (A1068567) "This girl is on the young side, and has a very bubbly, energetic personality," writes an ACC volunteer. "She's super curious and loves her 'out time' -- she'll explore and chin everything in her environment. Her high energy level makes her more interested in playtime than in affection right now, but she's not shy at all and will let you pet her when she's taking a break from her antics." Her previous owner says she's very sweet and loves being talked to. Meet this adorable, approximately 8-month-old bunny at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.
Animal Care Centers of NYC (ACC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is the only open-admissions animal shelter in New York City and takes in approximately 30,000 animals every year. ACC's three Care Centers in Manhattan (326 East 110th Street), Brooklyn (2336 Linden Boulevard), and Staten Island (3139 Veterans Road West) are open for adoptions 12pm-8pm Monday thru Friday, and 10am-6pm Saturdays and Sundays.
If you're interested in one of the animals featured here, email ACC'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, ACC Adoption Counselors will help you find the best match.
