Founded in 1967, Animal Haven is a New York-based non-profit organization that finds loving forever homes for abandoned dogs and cats throughout the Tri-State area. In addition to operating an animal shelter in Manhattan, Animal Haven provides behavior intervention when necessary to improve chances of adoption, as well as programs that strengthen the bond between people and animals.
One of Animal Haven's projects is the successful Caring Kids: Animal Ambassadors, a program for 5- to 8-year-olds who are interested in learning about and helping animals. Participants will take a tour of Animal Haven, go “behind the scenes,” and meet some of the shelter's residents. They will also learn to care for and respect animals through hands-on activities.
As a no-kill shelter, Animal Haven will never euthanize for space or time and will care for animals for as long as it takes to get them adopted or placed in a more suitable situation. Cats can be adopted for $150 while dogs can be adopted for $250. Adoption fees cover spay/neuter, vaccine, microchip, and license expenses.
