CARING FOR ANIMALS SINCE 1927
631.368.8770

Little Shelter Animal Rescue and Adoption Center is a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter nestled on six wooded acres in Huntington, Long Island. Included on the grounds is Sheltervale Pet Cemetery, which has been the final resting place for companion animals for more than 80 years. Suffolk County’s oldest humane organization, Little Shelter has been dedi

cated to saving abandoned dogs and cats and placing them into loving homes since 1927. Age, physical condition, and socialization issues are never criteria for rescuing a dog or cat whose life is in jeopardy. Most of our companion animals have been saved from kill shelters on Long Island, in New York City, and in several southern states. As a member of the Mayor’s Alliance for NYC’s Animals, Little Shelter is regularly called upon by the city’s municipal shelters to take their dogs and cats in need of rehabilitation. All Little Shelter pets receive the highest quality medical care and are spayed /neutered before adoption. Every potential adopter is interviewed and thoroughly screened to ensure the best quality homes. To extend our mission of finding loving homes for all dogs and cats, Little Shelter has implemented the One Call Saves One Life program. Through this initiative, we ask all animal lovers to make one phone call to encourage one friend or relative to save one animal’s life by adopting a shelter pet and by relaying the adoption message to someone else. With the help of One Call spokesperson Richard Belzer, individuals as well as shelters have spread this lifesaving message. Our FACEBOOK GUIDELINES: We love hearing from our Facebook friends. Please post your photos, questions, comments, news bits and article links so we can all enjoy. However, we do prohibit and reserve the right to remove cross-posting ads for products, services or for non LSAR pets. To keep the page from getting muddled, we remove any posts that ask our readers to vote in contests, sign petitions, 'like my page' or to send money. We also remove posts that have wrong information, severe accusations, or other negative commentary. The page is used to promote LSAR events and our pets and if general conversation is not vital to the page or our supporters we will delete the post. Should you have specific or immediate questions it is best to call our general line as that will be answered more quickly than a Facebook post. Thank you for understanding, and thank you for your support!

Happy New Year to everyone! Thank you for making 2025 a successful year.Many animals found their forever homes, we would like to thank our donors, supporters, volunteers and staff for helping us make a difference!

I know it’s a busy week, but this can’t wait. The timid dog who flinches at every sound, or the affectionate cat who curls into the smallest corner of her kennel — they don’t understand why they’re here, only that they’re waiting.

Waiting for a second chance at love and happiness … waiting for a friend like you to give them the lifesaving care they need.

I hope you won’t wait any longer to send your tax-deductible gift during the Year-End 2X Match at Little Shelter. Time is running out to help homeless animals one last time in 2025.

The animals can’t tell us their hopes for the new year in words, but I see their belief in a better tomorrow every day.

Tails still wag whenever a visitor walks past the dog kennels. Soft purrs rumble whenever a kind hand reaches down to pet a head in our cat room.

Every one of these homeless animals is holding out hope for their second chance.

Please don’t miss your last chance this year to make their wishes come true! Rush your gift today to give 2X the lifesaving care to animals waiting right now.

Thank you for saving lives this year!

2X match for homeless animals. Don’t miss it!

On behalf of all of us here at Little Shelter, I hope you and your loved ones — including four-legged family members — are having a wonderful holiday season!

It’s a busy time of year, but I also hope you had a moment to read my email about the limited-time holiday matching gift opportunity at Little Shelter. This is your last chance to help the animals this year, and they really need to hear from you.

In case you missed it, you can read my email (below) to learn more about this 2X match and why your support — which DOUBLES today — is so important for the animals this year. Then please, make one last tax-deductible gift to save lives in 2025!

Wishing you a very happy holiday,

All homeless animals want for the holidays is a second chance — and it’s your last chance this year to give them that gift.

Please don’t wait! Send your gift before the year ends, and your kindness will be matched dollar for dollar, up to $50,000, by a longtime friend of Little Shelter.

You save lives with every gift you give, and right now your help is absolutely critical.

Animal rescues across the country are once again ending the year with their shelters full. So many dogs and cats need help right now. They need YOU.

This 2X matching gift opportunity couldn’t have come at a more urgent time.

Your gift will provide twice the emergency veterinary care, twice the food, and twice the hope for animals who have nowhere else to turn.

Please help us save more lives and give more animals the new year they deserve. Make one more gift this year so it can be matched to donate today. https://donorbox.org/year-end2025
With gratitude for all you do,
