Potato is currently in foster care and ready for adoption via our virtual process! Potato, a five-year-old female, just arrived 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. Here’s what we know so far about her time in foster care: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:251bec72-4aa7-4f14-b4a6-… She is super sweet, calm, and chatty. She likes to be near her people. Her foster says "Potato is a very curious and alert girl. Right away she wanted to meet everyone and explore. It took her a bit to warm up but each day she becomes more and more comfortable in the space - finding a cozy spot in the sun for afternoon naps. She likes to be where the people are and is a total lover girl, saying hi and snuggling up on whoever is around, especially if there's a blanket nearby to make biscuits. Potato is such a lover. When she picks her person or shows she likes you it means the world. You can tell she trusts you and you’re her safe space, which is a very special and honorable feeling to have." She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and has had preventative treatments to ensure she is ready for her next steps. 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.
