Adorable three-year-old Amy ( ) boasts a big purrsonality for such a tiny little girl. No doubt, she used that quality to her advantage while surviving the treacherous conditions for cats in Afghanistan. Now safely placed in Bianca's Furry Friends in a gorgeously sunny room with toys, treats, and friends, she can hardly believe her good luck. Amy loves to explore her new horizons, and is always belly-up for attention. Want to give her something worth purring about? Adopt her and give her the first home she's ever known!

It may seem obvious to us that one-year-old Dexter ( ) is an unusually stunning cat, but he couldn’t be more humble or gracious about accepting the peaceful room we’ve provided him. His life in Bianca’s Furry Friends is quite a departure from the world he left behind in Afghanistan, and he’s still soaking in being safe and cared for. Gentle hands are reminder he can trust that from now on he’ll always be cared for. Want to introduce Dexter to a whole new world of love? He can’t wait to see it with you!

One- year-old Leon’s ( ) story began when he was rescued by his hero while struggling to get by in the busy city of San Juan. A flight back to New York was how his life shifted in a new, safer direction. While this timid boy takes his time acclimating to all that is new, the way he lifts his chin to receive rubs which leads to soft purrs and eye blinks—well, that’s really all he needs to do to melt the hearts of all who greet him. If you’re hoping to invite home a quiet, grateful companion, look no further than Leon. He’d love to accept that invitation!

It may be , but we have some dogs who NEED your attention! 🚨Meet our adoptable senior dogs! Unfortunately, we recently had an influx of senior dogs who have been surrendered back to our care due to no fault of their own. 🥺💔All of these dogs have lived a majority of their lives in a home and have found themselves back in our adoption center. As you can imagine, they are struggling to adapt. 😢We are doing everything we can to make them comfortable and give them ALL the love, but what they really need is a forever home. We want to get these pups into fur-ever homes as soon as possible, so their adoption fees are WAIVED!!! If you are interested in meeting any of the dogs featured above, visit our Port Washington, NY adoption center, today! 🐶❤️

No need to adjust your monitor: Pasha ( ) is indeed that gorgeous. Yep, he’s the real deal when it comes to glorious orange guys, and he’s looking for a love connection who’ll bring him back to a home where he belongs. His recent return due his owner moving away left him bereft, and he needed our love and patience to reassure him that a bright future is all ahead for him. Because he can be sensitive in new situations, especially around other cats, his happiness lies in an experienced home all to himself with children over 10 years old willing to follow his lead as he settles back into life as part of the family. It’s not hard to fall in love with this playful 3 year old pal; he’s as charming as he is beautiful!

Ten-month-old Cianna’s ( ) start to life may have been rough, but her soft landing in the gentle hands of our vets at North Shore Animal League America was just what this beloved kitten needed to get back on track for a life she deserves.❤️Cianna enjoyed the best care available in a foster home while our vets put in action a successful plan for her megaesophagus. Her condition will be covered at cost through our Pet Health Centers, and with our support, her family will help her thrive. Cianna hasn’t met a lap she doesn’t love, and while she greets new situations with breathy excitement (likely due to a rib injury in her babyhood), she captivates all with her purrfectly imperfect charm. 😺💕Just look at those baseball mitts and you can’t help but be smitten, but the truth is, her capacity for love is much greater than her polydactyl paws!

Meet Cooper! ( ) He's a one-year-old Terrier mix who traveled all the way from Antigua to meet his loving family! Cooper was adopted as a puppy and due to unforeseen circumstances in his home was surrendered back to us a few months ago. He has been struggling to adapt back to shelter life but we're working with this sweet boy every day! 🐶Cooper would do best with an experienced adopter with older children to help guide him. He does get along with other pups, so bring your entire family, including any canine companions down to our adoption center to make Cooper a forever part of your family! ❤️

Take one look at two-year-old Eddie’s ( ) crooked grin and you’re going to be smitten for life! That face tells us of a hard yet adventurous past he was happy to leave behind in Oman, with his heart set on starting fresh here in Bianca’s Furry Friends. This unusual boy is working hard at making a big impression with visitors to his room. His penchant for plopping into laps is sure to lead him to his desired goal: a ride to his fur-ever home with you! 😺💕

Meet Mazzy! ( ) Mazzy is a one-year-old Lab Mix who was recently rescued from Texas. Mazzy has a heart as big as her paws... and remember, the bigger they are, the more there is to love! Mazzy is an energetic girl who loves to run around our dog park and play with squeaky toys. The only thing she loves more?! Yummy treats! 🦴 Mazzy is very smart but would benefit from an experienced adopter with older children (10+) who can continue to work with her on her training. This gorgeous girl does get along with other dogs, so if you have a canine companion at home, bring them to our Port Washington, NY adoption center for a meet and greet! If you're ready to add more sunshine into your life, adopt Mazzy, today!

Zigzagging his way straight to your heart is one-year-old Ziggy ( )! This tenacious tabby traveled a very long distance to find you—all the way from Afghanistan! Spend a few moments with him and he’ll convince you the trip was worth it. He’s enjoying more freedom and love than he’d ever imagined existed for a cat like him. Want to introduce him to even more exciting wonders? He has no idea how thrilling a snuggle on a sofa with his chosen human can be!

Meet Bernie! ( ) Bernie is an eight-year-old Terrier Mix who was rescued from Tennessee in 2016. Bernie lived his whole life in a loving home and recently returned to our care when his beloved owner passed away. 💔🥺 We gladly opened our hearts and adoption center to this sweet boy. Bernie has been struggling readapting to shelter life but we're doing everything we can to make his time with us as comfortable as possible.❤️ Bernie needs some time to warm up before her true personality shines! Once he gets to know you, you will have a loving companion for life! 🐶🦴 We would love to see Bernie go home to experienced adopters with children over 8 years old and a fully fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. Bernie gets along with other dogs, so if you have a canine companion at home already bring them for a meet and greet! Let's all come together and find Bernie a home where he can spend his golden years! 💕
