UPDATE: Snack has been adopted!! Thank you for sharing!

URGENT TIMESTAMPED DOG IN NEED OF FOSTER:

Our focus is cats, but today Snack the dog needs your help. Snack is at ACCT Philly and has a willing rescue to take him in, but NEEDS a foster before Friday, November 15 at 10am.

Snack actually came to ACCT back in June and was adopted, but one of our GSR volunteers found Snack dumped and outside as a stray in their backyard in October. Snack is a playful and friendly guy who is deserving of a home. He’s timestamped due Saloni Dalal space. Can you help foster or know someone who can? Reach out to us or who found Snack.

The Philly area has had no rain for 35 days!! Don't forget that just like plants, cats need water too, and many Philly strays aren't so lucky to have an easy-to-access water bowl like our cats at home. If you are feeding a stray cat or colony, make sure that you are putting out water. Consider putting a bowl outside your home for your local strays, wildlife, and passerby pups to enjoy a fresh drink!

🍏 ADOPTABLE BART 🍏 Bart is urgently in need of an adopter, and this sweetie has no brat in him! Bart’s amazing foster is entering law school and we need to find Bart a forever home. He is an absolute gem. Check out to see many videos and posts about Bart!

Some basics about Bart:
- he loves being cuddly & close
- he’s a smarty pants that loves to learn tricks (he knows sit) and walking on a leash indoors
- he doesn’t mind vet visits, cat rides, and nail trims!
- he’s FIV+ and has an autoimmune condition called plasma cell pododermatitis (P*P or pillow paw) and has recovered from his recent flare. has a whole series on Bart’s care for his conditions!
- Bart would do best in a home without dogs and most likely without other cats

Any questions on Bart, please reach out directly to us or his foster mom. You can apply for Bart today on our website, linked below and in our instagram bio.

Shelter Volunteers are our local heroes. Today we're sharing some of our amazing volunteers who help make our work possible!

This past week, our team worked tirelessly to bring home one of our cats, Silverado, who got out of his carrier on the way to his forever home after being adopted. We got the great news this morning that Silverado was found and is safely back at the cafe, all thanks to our amazing volunteers and staff.

Thanks to you can help support the work they do by donating to Green Street Rescue or your local animal shelter today. Visit https://ClearTheSheltersFund.org

It’s National Take Your Cat to the Vet Day! 🐱🩺💕

Today is a great reminder to schedule your kitty’s annual checkup, and we’ve gathered some photos of staff & volunteer pets and GSR/café alums at or on their way to the vet. As you can see, there’s a variety of reactions! 😂🤭 you’ll also notice that black speckled floor in multiple photos— that’s ! They’re our go-to vet and many adopters end up continuing to take their cats there.

Even if your cat is nervous, it’s important to still schedule appts (and talk with your vet about ways to decrease anxiety!). There are routines, sprays and medications you can implement, and Art City Vets even has cat only days.

Some big reasons to schedule your cat a checkup:
- cats are great at hiding pain due to their natural instincts
- keep vaccinations up to date to protect against life threatening diseases
- flea and tick prevention (Philly has lots of fleas, so even indoor cats should get flea protection!)
- lifestyle tips for your kitty’s weight, diet, and happiness 😊

Our Story

Green Street Rescue is a network of volunteers dedicated to rescuing stray and homeless in Philadelphia.

Our mission: • rescue stray & homeless cats • manage feral populations with TNRM (trap, neuter, release, manage) practices • find foster & furrrrever homes for friendly cats and place unfriendly cats with barns

As a 501(c)3 non-profit, we function entirely on donations and the generosity of our volunteers. If you are interested in contributing to our mission, we welcome your donations here.

GSR also operates Le Cat Cafe, a Parisian style cat cafe in the Brewerytown neighborhood of Philadelphia. Visit us for self-serve coffee, a relaxing atmosphere and meet 12 of our adoptable cats.
