FOSTERING
Have you decided to rescue a cat on death row? Please step up and save a life. Cats and dogs of all ages are being put to death because there are not enough fosters. Many kill-listed cats have earned
their ticket to freedom as ‘bathroom cats’ in foster homes for a short time and are now in loving forever homes. “I would rather cry watching them leave our home to live a life of happiness and joy in a loving home rather than cry because no one stepped up to help them and they died alone, frightened and sad in the shelter. Fostering saves lives, try it.”
Local campaigns to find fosters can be easily set up like this one

NEW YORK NYC AC&C SHELTERS AND RESCUES
If you are local to the NYC Tri-State area: New England, General North-east and serious about adopting or fostering this kitty, please email the URGENT help desk now at urgentassistancenyc@gmail.com. Experienced volunteers will guide you through the process.
Fostering is easy and saves lives. The rescue will cover vet bills for the duration of the foster. Help and advice is available from the rescue and other organisations. If you need advice and assistance speak to the current PODR Adminstrators.
Transport is provided for adoptions up to four hours out of NYC at no cost by Mayor’s Alliance for NYC Animals. Arrangements can be made to meet part-way. For fosters delivery is available within NYC and also sometimes out of town. They have been made to CT, PA, and NJ.
If you want to foster or adopt and need help or advice please email: help@urgentpetsondeathrow.org
The following is a list of rescues that might be able to assist. Remember, time is sensitive. They begin killing at 6am, the morning after these lists are posted.
Placing applications with more than one group increases the chances of someone being able to see and respond quickly, as this improves your chances of being approved. When at all possible, please try to fill out applications and get approved to adopt or foster BEFORE the animal is on ‘the list’ and it is at the 11th hour!
MANY RESCUES HAVE APPLICATIONS RIGHT ON THEIR SITE When writing them, be sure to indicate the animal ID number, name and shelter location in the SUBJECT line. You must include all contact info for yourself, including email and phone. Explain to them that the animal is on the ACC euthanasia list for the next morning and that you would like to foster/adopt.

TRANSPORT
There are many animal transport rescue groups that are FREE or cheap!! Don’t look at the sadness in a pet’s eyes and say: “Aaaww, I’d like to adopt him, but he’s too far away…” Follow these steps find a rescue and transport and he’s as good as yours!
First you have to find two rescues, one where the pet is and one where you are. They have to be put in touch with each other so your local rescue can do the home inspection for the rescue local to the shelter.
Each rescue will have their paperwork for her to fill out. Of course the first step is to notify the shelter that the pet is wanted (by phone AND EMAIL)
Don’t tell them too much, they are on a need to know basis. Some of them will try and throw a wrench into it.
Warnings
Most transport groups are run by rescuers, many on Facebook, and care about animals. Beware of rogues though who only care about the money to be made. There is only one well known such transport. Please use the contact form if you know of another transport that ought to be on this list.

Air Travel
Air travel is not recommended with the commercial airlines in the normal way as animals are put in the cargo hold. The cargo areas are not temperature controlled, and especially in the winter and summer months, they can be uninhabitable, meaning that animals may not survive. There is one airline that has a good reputation for taking care of animals.

ANOTHER LIST FOR TRANSPORT
Here is the list I use to find transporters. I have collected up through the months. I am still working on it. Some are paid but most are free. Some are actual transporter pages and some are pages to post your needs and then people will offer or you can ask to be added to a planned transport. Everyone is very helpful, Each one can be found on Facebook or the web, just type the name into the search in Facebook or Google.
Please try Rescue Road Warriors
Long distance ground transport, we specialize in private rides cross country. We also have local offices in Seattle, Portland, and San Francisco. Locally we offer pickup and drop off for daycares, boarding, and vet appointments.

You get your deployment orders, and look at Fido, and wonder… “what am I going to do with my beloved furry friend?” Perhaps someone in your family or a friend can help you take care of your pet… A shelter? “No, I can’t do that to my faithful Fido”… This is such a difficult, stressful time to have to worry about Fido…
The good news is that there are organizations that can help you and your pet with temporary foster care. We have listed a few below. Contact them, and they will help you take care of your furry friend or point you in the right direction.

NO KILL SOLUTIONS
Transforming shelters to save more cats: a blueprint for change by Alley Cat Allies
https://www.alleycat.org/sslpage.aspx?pid=1481
Safety Net Program
http://www.718544pets.org/indexEnglish.html
To help animals, we’ve been told to do two things:
1.. Sign petitions on Facebook; and
2. Send money to the large, national organizations.
The problem is that Facebook petitions are often ignored and therefore mostly ineffective. And when it doesn’t simply sit in already bloated bank accounts, the money donated to the large, national organizations just as often is used to hinder, rather than assist, the cause in ending the killing of animals in shelters. Together, the ASPCA and HSUS take in roughly $300,000,000 per year yet have never created a No Kill community.
To save lives, animals in shelters need for people to do two different things:
1. Directly take animals out of harm’s way through rescue and 2. Reform shelters through legislation, litigation, and political advocacy.
In short, D.I.Y. Like the activist who started a No Kill movement in his community where he took on not only an entrenched shelter director, but also the mighty ASPCA, and won
http://www.nokilladvocacycenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/politadvocacy.pdf
Or the animal lover who became informed about the No Kill movement and immediately walked into his local shelter, announced, “There will be no more killing in the shelter,” and then proceeded to make it come true. Or the animal rescuer who almost single-handedly created the infrastructure for her local shelter to go No Kill
http://www.examiner.com/article/on-a-no-kill-mission-interview-with-kelly-jedlicki
Or the husband-and-wife team that began marketing shelter animals and holding offsite adoption events, resulting in adoption rates of over 95 percent for their community
http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=6880
Or even the local volunteer group who took over operations of their shelter and now save well over 90% of the animals
http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=14510
There are many ways to effectively join the No Kill revolution. Here’s one: create a blog that acts as a watchdog over sheltering issues in your community or state.
Two examples:
NJ Animal Observer writes on shelters in his home state of New Jersey
http://njanimalobserver.wordpress.com/
Fix NC who writes about shelter issues in her home state of North Carolina
http://fixnc.wordpress.com/
We need less Facebook petitions and less check writing and more people willing to stand up and expose the truth. We need more people willing to directly save animals from shelters intent on killing them through rescue.
We need more people willing to walk the corridors of power to lobby for reform

A note on PETA
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals known as PETA do a great deal of wonderful work helping animals. They are also responsible for destroying some homeless pets sending out entirely the wrong message to those who think it’s acceptable to hurt and kill animals.
What’s behind PETA’s systematic killing of animals?
http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=12558
Why PETA kills
http://www.whypetaeuthanizes.org/
Local US humane societies, of which many are kill shelters
http://www.humanewatch.org/shelters/
“If every animal shelter in the United States embraced the No Kill philosophy and the programs and services that make it possible, we would save nearly four million dogs and cats who are scheduled to die in shelters this year, and the year after that. It is not an impossible dream.”
Nathan and guests talk about the shelters in the US, the HSUS and Wayne Pacelle here:

LOST AND FOUND PETS
National adoptable and lost and found database from hundreds of animal shelters in the US and Canada. Breed search, lost and found pet matching service. Can look up animals here with shelter’s zip code. Go to right side look for location then use this shelter list; left side click species; animals for adoption. It is updated every hour and will tell you how long an animal has been there and start getting twitchy when it approaches two weeks but if intake #’s are high, two weeks may not apply. Just need to move animals out asap
