Sterling is a 6-year-old female, weighing 68lbs. Learn more about her time in foster care here: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:ce2a6ce2-1496-439d-9bb3-… She’s sweet, affectionate, and playful! Sterling loves stuffed toys and will carry them in her mouth on a walk. Volunteers describe Sterling as “a great big cuddle bug” who’s “full of personality.” Sterling was found as a stray, so her behavior in a home environment is unknown. She has displayed some handling/touch sensitivity in care and would do best in a home with no young children. Sterling is looking for a patient adopter who can offer her a calm environment to settle into and time to acclimate to new people. Sterling is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and receiving ongoing support to ensure she’s ready for her new home. To meet Sterling, visit the Best Friends New York Soho Lifesaving Center at 307 West Broadway, New York, NY, near Canal Street. We're open daily from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved. Come by and see if Sterling is the perfect match for you!

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.
