Established in 1994, New Yorkers for
Companion Animals (NYCA) is dedicated to
rescuing, caring for, and placing pets in homes
where they will be respected and loved. The
non-for-profit organization relies on donations
and volunteers to give some of New York City's
60,000 abandoned animals a second chance.

In addition to monetary donations, NYCA
benefits from donations of dog food, supplies,
and veterinary services. Foster services are also
key to the group's function. The process for
acceptance as an NYCA foster care provider is
on the organization's website at www.nyca.net.

Adoption requires processing and a one-time
nominal fee to help defray the rescue agency's
costs. All pets that are adoptable have been
examined by a vet, vaccinated, neutered, and
micro-chipped.
