ADOPT A DOG

Ready to find your new best friend? We have rescued hundreds of animals from southern states because of significant overcrowding, extremely high euthanasia rates, and poor spay/neuter programs in certain areas of Georgia, Kentucky and Florida.  

ADOPT A CAT

Are you a cat lover? We rescue cats from the southern states each week. All you need to do is complete the adoption application for approval. Then, you're ready to take your feline friend home!

BE A FOSTER PARENT

Are you ready to help an animal in need? We are constantly looking for foster parents to house our incoming rescue pups and cats each week. We expect several things from our fosters, including compassion, perseverance, and reliability. If that sounds like you, then go ahead and apply!

BECOME A PART OF OUR RESCUE FAMILY

In Our Hands Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit organization that relies entirely on volunteers to ameliorate the plight of abandoned, sick, injured, or neglected animals in New York City; to promote and require spay and neuter as a means of controlling the tragic pet population problem, and to offer refuge, whenever possible, to the neediest animals, wherever they may be.  

Over the past several years, In Our Hands Rescue has helped hundreds of animals find their forever homes with loving families in the New York area.  The organization relies entirely on donations and volunteers.  We have no paid staff and no outside funding.

In Our Hands Rescue rescues dogs and cats from shelters in the New York area as well as from other parts of the United States.  Many rescued animals come from southern states because of significant overcrowding, extremely high euthanasia rates, and poor spay/neuter programs in certain areas of Georgia, Kentucky and Florida.  

The organization is dedicated to helping poor, abandoned and often neglected and abused animals, regardless of their origin.
