Hello dog lovers,
I am very involved in dog and cat rescue and have heard that the AC&C is experiencing major budget cuts that will bring them to a point where they have $0.87 per animal. Many animals sadly find there homes at the AC&C, many of them are puppies that need wet food and many are seniors that need special care food.
AC&C is a high kill shelter and the animals are not kept there in very good care. Many are sick and some hardly get outside.
They are in URGENT need of food donations and I have decided to help and create a food drive. The deadline would be February 12, 2010. I will be driving to the Brooklyn AC&C February 13, 2010 and personally delivering all the food I manage to collect.
Here are the ways to donate food:

Animal Care & Control of New York City (AC&C) is the largest pet organization in the North East, with an estimated number of 43,000 animals rescued each year. As a not-for-profit organization since 1995, Animal Care & Control has been responsible for New York City's municipal shelter system, rescuing, caring for, and finding loving homes for homeless and abandoned animals in New York City.
AC&C facilities operate in all five boroughs.
Take a look at the animals the AC&C currently have:

On my personal blog I have written a letter from an AC&C volunteer.
