Lia is currently in foster care and ready for adoption via our virtual process! Lia, a nine-month-old female, just arrived at the adoption center and is still getting settled in, so we’re just beginning to learn who they are. Right now, everything is new—new people, new sounds, new routines—and we’re giving them time to relax, decompress, and show us their true personality at their own pace. Lia is here with her sister Cleo. They love each other and play beautifully and take comfort from each other. They are spayed and up to date on vaccines and are microchipped. They have had preventative treatments to ensure they are ready for their next steps. Their foster says, "Cleo & her sister Lia were very shut down and hid for 12 hours right when they got here. But by that evening they were already timidly accepting pets! Cleo is more outgoing and curious - she might be a little hesitant but she absolutely still loves affection!" Submit an adoption survey from above and our team will reach out via phone or email (check spam) to schedule a counseling call. For any additional questions, please contact fosternyc@bestfriends.org. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
