I really hope this shelter sticks around, since they had some issues with their lease and nearly had to close earlier this year.

They will waste your time, not out of malice, but due to their lack of organization and mismanagement. On top of that, they charge extremely high fees. I definitely would recommend getting a cat somewhere else - there are more than enough shelters and cats in the city and you will be better served looking elsewhere.

I first learned about this location from an Instagram post about them advertising their Staycation…read moreprogram over the holidays where you can foster a cat or dog over the holidays for a few days. Super conveniently located off the ACE line too at Canal St. They provide all the materials and your preference and they help match you with a furry friend. They were advertising a specific pick up and drop off date for the animals for this program, but i wanted to participate for a bit longer so I called a few days before to see if they're able to accommodate. The staff who answered didn't know the answer so they took down my info and told me someone would call me back. Days passed and I didn't hear back so I had to make a trek down there to ask in-person so that was a bit inconvenient. I wanted some time to prep my home. Anyway when I let them know that I'm a beginner foster and would prefer a cat that is generally friendly with no behavior problems, they helped me match with an adorable adult cream kitty. I picked her up with no issues. They provided me with all the supplies (and more) that I'd need for my week-long foster commitment. They also provided a number that I could text with any concerns should any issues come up. My whole experience was very positive. I'm glad to see that they have now expanded their program with allowing folks to take a dog out for a walk. I've seen further Instagram posts posting about these excursion experiences, but I think you have to come early during the day as only a limited number of dogs are eligible candidates daily. I've done similar excursions at Sean Casey in Brooklyn (no appointment necessary) and ACC (booking required a few days in advance online) so I'm excited this opportunity exists here in a more centrally located place in Manhattan. The shelter also allows visitors to come and view and play with their cats. You just need to make sure you wash your hands before interacting with them. I love this but also hope this doesn't overwhelm the cats too much.

I wanted to share my lovely experience a Best Friends!! It's been one whole month since we brought…read moreour kitten, Juni (short for Juniper) home. We were looking for a cat for our cat. We wanted a playmate for our sweet 1 year old cat, and a friend recommended Best Friends. I came by and the staff were all so sweet and welcoming. They were super informative and encouraged me to play with the cats. During my first visit, I came across the cutest orange female (RARE!) kitten. I had dinner plans and couldn't bring her with me. I came back an hour or so later and she was in the process of getting adopted :,) happy for her but sad for me. It's ok! I just thought that maybe it wasn't meant to be. A week later, I came back to Best Friends with my boyfriend on a mission to adopt a cat. They had an additional room towards the back that housed kittens!!! There were so many to choose from. We chose Juni because she was very cuddly and had a little quirky mustache. The staff made the adoption process so quick and easy. They even provided us a care package with all the necessities (kitten litter, wet and dry food). I expressed my concerns about introducing Juni to our cat at home, and they provided a step by step guide. They even followed up 2 weeks later with our progress. The employees and volunteers here really love what they do.

We found Cozy Cats around 2017 online. We were only testing the waters for adding a kitten to our…read morefamily at that time. She responded quick and prompt from the beginning till the end. After about a year or so of our family deciding to add another family member or not. We were in New York and contacted Cozy Cats, we were able to meet with her and a couple scottish fold kittens she had available. She answered every single question we had while she shared a lot of knowledge (even after hours and hours of research I did not know) about the scottish fold breed. When we left that meeting I had no doubt Cozy Cats is where I was going to get my kitten from. About 2 months later she had another litter of kittens. We picked our kitten from the litter, 2-1/2 months later I was picking up my baby at the airport. Felix (my kitten) is now 4 months old, he just finished his 3rd vet appointment, getting his final check up and vaccines. Besides every nurse and vet in the office freaking out about how cute he was, he is 100% healthy with ZERO deformities. He is the most loving cat I have ever been around and besides him nudging me awake every morning at 5am, he is one of the best additions you can add to a house hold! Cozy Cats is clearly breeding the proper way. She also handles the business side of things extremely professional and if we ever decided to get another kitten, we will be going straight to Cozy Cats.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!This "breeder" is not to be trusted! I have purchased a Kitten from Hasiya who is…read morejust 9 months old at this time.... She get her kittens from Russia and she doesn't honour health guarantees or her sales contracts! 1) We paid $100 for a vet health record that we never received, we received a Russian vet record that was used to export 3 kittens from Russia to New York. My cat was not seen by a vet in New York. The vaccinations records she gave us were all in Russian, and stamped with fake stamps in Russian with a phone number that lead to a fake internet vet page. We are not even sure that our kitten was ever vaccinated. 2) When our kitten arrived he was extremely small (1.8lbs) at the stated age of 12 weeks (He clearly wasn't 12 weeks). He was taken to the vet within 24hrs of receiving him. He was diagnosed with a viral URI that required a month long course of antibiotics to clear and he had fleas. 3) He only started to lose his teeth at "6 months" of age, we believe this is because our kitten was not actually 6 months old, as all the information we were given is false and forged. 4) He was diagnosed to be unilaterally cryptorchid, meaning only one of his testicles dropped and the other had to be surgically removed from deep in his abdomen. This is a genetic abnormality, something detectable at 2-3 months of age. Hasiya states her cats are vet checked, they would have caught this and the URI and fleas if it had been done. 5) From the time we got our kitten he made gagging and choking noises in his throat. He snored loud, we chalked it up to being a little kitten and getting over his URI. We took him to the vet when he started going lame, not eating and sleeping 22+hrs a day. 3 vets, 2 of which are vet specialists diagnosed our kitten to having brachycephalic syndrome. He has extremely stenotic nares that cause wheezing 100% of the time and an elongated soft palate which is producing the gagging and choking when he is being active or eating. Brachycephalic syndrome is a risk to all short nose cats and dogs, ethical and careful breeding of these breeds that are at risk for this genetic disorder should be carefully monitored for. It is 100% genetic, and it is not normal for a cat or dog, as it needs to be surgically corrected in order for the animal to survive. Hasiya states that my cats parents were one a scottish fold and the other a scottish straight ear. In order to have genetically clean kittens you must breed a scottish fold with a british short hair, this "breeder" does not do this. 6) At the same time our kitten was diagnosed with Brachycephalic syndrome he was also diagnosed with malocclusion of his jaw causing his upper right molar to dig into his lower mandible creating ulceration and inflammation of his lower gums. This also diagnosed by a vet dental specialist is a genetic disorder in poorly bred cats and dogs. This information has been 100% verified by 3 veterinarians in dental and internal medicine specialities. As of the time of this review, Hasiya of CozyCatsNY has not honoured her health guarantee, has no refunded us any of the money we paid or reimbursed for vet bills. Our kitten at 9 months requires a life saving surgery to breath and eat normally. Hasiya has not taken any responsibility for honouring her cat sales contract. Has made false claims that her vet instructed her that my vet's diagnosis are false and that she is not responsible for refunding any money. Her vet has never treated my kitten, and cannot make a diagnosis without inspecting my kitten for themselves, to make a diagnosis without seeing a kitten would be against the law. Do not buy a kitten from this individual. ** There are a couple of individuals on this yelp page with positive reviews who have direct ties with this breeder with plans to breed cats they purchased from this seller as well (https://www.facebook.com/houseofscottishfolds/). Their reviews of their cats that are healthy may be legitimate, however it still remains a fact that there are many others who have purchased kittens from this breeder that are chronically ill, or have died from FIP, congenital heart defects, have eosinophilic granuloma, as well as many who arrive with URI, fleas, and giardia. I have seen these accounts on many complaint pages and spoken directly with these individuals and in each case the seller has failed to honour her health contracts and neglects to communicate respectfully and honestly with her clients. None of these individuals nor myself have profited in any way from these reviews or factual information that is being shared for others researching scottish fold breeders.

There was never any pressure and I was told that if for any reason I was not happy with my pup, they would take her back to foster and rehome. Sadie traveled via carry on luggage on her flight from Puerto Rico to FLL, carried by a volunteer angel (thank you!). Beth came with me to the airport and was so incredibly supportive and kind. From the moment Sadie popped her head out of the carrier, tail wagging, I knew that everything Toni/Beth told me about Sadie was spot on. It's been 1 week since I got Sadie and I could not be more thrilled with Sadie. I'm still chatting with Beth from time to time, sharing happy experiences and getting great advice on various new dog owner questions. She is a mensch! If you are apprehensive about the SFTH adoption process, I hope my review is informative for you. Now that Sadie is part of my life, I am grateful and appreciative of the work Toni, Beth and their team do. I highly recommend SFTH if you are considering a rescue.
