Give Me Shelter Project, Inc. Animal Rescue, Education and Advocacy

Changing the world one animal at a time. Give Me Shelter Project, Inc. Many lives were saved.

is a 501(c)3 not for profit animal rescue, education and advocacy group in NYC. We believe that Each Animal Counts™ and are committed to changing the world, one animal at a time. Purpose:

Give Me Shelter Project strives to elevate the societal value of animal life through various activities including:
• Rescue and placement of unwanted animals
• Provision of necessary medical care
• Promoting tr

ap-neuter-return (TNR)
• Adoptions
• Support for and collaboration with individuals and other animal welfare organizations
• Education of the public on the importance of sterilization, basic animal care, humane treatment of animals, and the value of animals as an integral part of our society. History and Accomplishments:

Our story began in 2008 when we were part of a small group of independent rescuers who came together to rescue 88 cats from an eviction situation. Most of the cats were not friendly enough to be adopted. We searched and found placements far and wide (some cats were flown to a sanctuary in Arizona!). We undertook a similar rescue of 64 cats the following year. The scope of these rescues took an enormous toll on us physically, emotionally and financially. Many agencies advised us to turn the cats over to the local “kill” shelter. Instead, we felt compelled to consider the life of each individual cat and do all we could to protect that life. We were able to sleep at night knowing we made the right decision. Along the way, we rescued numerous other individual cats who found themselves in dire situations like Allison who was trapped in an abandoned building, and Becky who was blind and living on the street. Hobo was hit by a car and found on the side of the road with a broken arm. We now have a total of 44 cats in our care being fostered in several locations. Many would have been euthanized because the needed medical care was too expensive. Our Veterinarians saved a total of seven cats that had a deadly case of feline distemper. Many of these wonderful cats have been adopted into their forever homes. We have since rescued many more who are waiting for theirs. We have several cats with ongoing but treatable medical conditions. All donations go directly to the care of the animals to cover the cost of veterinary care, food and litter.

A BIG Shout-Out to our Cat Fosters!

A big shout-out and heartfelt thank you to all the amazing individuals who open their hearts and homes to foster our cats!

Fostering is a lifeline for countless cats and kittens who need a safe place to heal, grow, and socialize before finding their forever families. Whether they are bottle-fed kittens needing round-the-clock care, fearful felines requiring socialization, or recovering from illness or injury, fosters play a crucial role in their journey.
Your dedication and generosity truly makes a difference! You save lives! By fostering, you're directly contributing to saving countless cats and kittens from euthanasia.

Thank you for your tireless efforts and unwavering commitment! The bond you share with each foster cat, though temporary, creates a lasting positive impact on their lives and sets them on the path to a brighter future.

To all cat fosters, we salute you for your incredible work! Your efforts are deeply appreciated. Without YOU, we couldn’t do what we do! ♥️

Consider becoming a foster yourself! We are always looking for and in need of foster homes for the countless animals that are in need of help. No experience … no worries! Our dedicated,knowledgeable volunteer staff are here to educate and guide you! You can express your interest in fostering by emailing: givemeshelterproject@gmail
