Featured Cats
Semi-feral and shy cats

Being a no-kill rescue group is sometimes very difficult. Especially when we start filling up with cats that no one wants. They aren't bad cats. It's just that they aren't outgoing, cuddly, or lap-cats. Most of these cats would improve greatly in terms of their sociability with people if only they were in homes and had more one-on-one interaction with people. Even if they never really open up and become love bugs, they are great house cats and deserve to live out their lives.

Unfortunately, there aren't many options for these cats, and they are taking up foster home space that could be devoted to taking in other homeless cats. But currently, we are not taking in any new cats because we have committed to these.

What can you do to help? If you would consider becoming a Kitty Sanctuary Caregiver and bring one of these special-needs kitties into your home to simply live out its days, we would be so grateful. There is no adoption fee, and all the kitties have been spayed/neutered and been vaccinated. As indoor cats, there really is little they need beyond food, water, litter, and a warm place to snuggle away where they will feel safe.

If you would like to discuss joining our Kitty Sanctuary Caregivers network, please contact us at info@BuffaloHumane.org. Without special people like you to reach out to these special-needs animals, our no-kill work would not be possible.

Featured Dog
Tommy

What can I say about Tommy, except for the fact that he is FABULOUS! He is one of the sweetest and most even tempered dog I have ever met.

Tommy is currently being fostered by Colleen at Canine Academy. He loves going to day care and playing with the other dogs - even the feisty ones! Tommy just gives them play signal after play signal and even if they get snarky, he doesn't react. How's that for a breed that is supposed to be aggressive to other dogs! You see, it isn't the breed - it's the dog and Tommy is about as good as they come.

Tommy is a young energetic dog, so we really think that he would do best in a home with a fenced in yard. He doesn't like being in a crate unless he is tuckered out, so we are looking for a home that would continue to work with him on that. We don't know how he would be if he was loose in the house, but if you have a secure area he could stay while you are gone, that might be the best option for him. I've never seen a person or a dog that Tommy didn't love and I can't say enough about his wonderful personality.

Tommy is neutered, up to date with vaccinations, flea treated, HW negative and his adoption includes a free first vet visit. He has his basic obedience down and his foster mom Colleen has been doing a great deal of work with him. Are you the lucky one that will bring him into your home?

For more information, or to meet Tommy, contact Colleen by email (Colleen@NYCanineAcademy.com) or call Canine Academy at (716) 759-9406. Fill out an online application.
