This event was un-fur-getable!
A handful of homeless Kings County furballs
found their way out of the shelter and into a furever
home Saturday, when the Animal Care Center
setup its NYC mobile adoption truck to Councilman
Alan Maisel’s Mill Basin office.
The little truck of love ferried two dogs, along
with nine cats and kittens to the event on Ralph
Avenue near Avenue N, according to ACC worker
Bridget Apel.
Maisel staffer Tyler Reynolds adopted London,
a 4-year old boxer mix.
London wasn’t the only four-legged Brooklynite
to find a home Saturday, and Maisel said
the only limit to his constituents’ charity was the
lack of brown-eyed tail waggers!
“The ACC didn’t bring enough animals,” Maisel
said. “We had more people than we anticipated!”
While most animals were adopted, Missy, a
7-year-old mixed-breed dog, is still in search for
a home, according to Apel.
“Missy is a sweetheart and housebroken, I’m
willing to bring Missy to a family for interaction
if they are interested,” Apel said.
Maisel said that, given the success of Saturday’s
event, he hopes host another in the future.
“I am open to having the event again, but
do not have a specific date for when that will
happen,” he said.
