3 To See At ACC: Meet Kitty, Jocelyn & Mac!
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 Kitty, Jocelyn and Mac!
Mac (A1067408) This friendly and super chill dog, eight years young, has been at ACC for six months, and is looking for a home of his own! Meet Mac at ACC's Brooklyn Care Center, 2336 Linden Boulevard. Mac was even featured on "The Dodo's" Facebook page!
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.
Jocelyn (A1079980) Jocelyn "is about 80% fur!" observes an ACC volunteer. "Her super fluffy coat, wonderfully jowly, fuzzy cheeks, and flat face give her a comical, somewhat unkempt look. Jocelyn is a very opinionated, spunky girl who insists on getting her way. Her adopter will have to worship and obey her - and do a lot of grooming!" Meet this approximately four-year-old bunny at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.
Kitty Kitty (A1089115) Kitty Kitty is as affectionate as he is gorgeous. This handsome feline, about four years old, loves to be pet, as you can see in his video! Fall in love with Kitty Kitty at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.
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.
