Cat Named Tommy Hilfiger Among Pets Up For Adoption on Long Island

pjimage – 2020-05-29T165717.702

This week we start off with a feel-good story out of Smithtown.

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, local pizzerias teamed up with the Town of Smithtown to help find loving homes for rescue dogs and cats at the Smithtown Animal Shelter. Each Pizzeria has taped Adoption Flyers to pizza boxes which are distributed to customers throughout the town. Each flyer includes important information about the animal seeking a loving home, including age, gender, and the needs of each adoptee. Pizzerias

The main objective of the Pizza Box Adoption campaign is to attract new eyes to the longest shelter residents, often passed up because of age, size or breed misconception. Every adoptee featured on these flyers is truly deserving of a second chance.

And for potential adopters outside of the Smithtown area, here’s this week’s list of adorable adoptables throughout Long Island that are just waiting for you to take them home today! 

Available for adoption at the Town of Smithtown Animal Shelter:

Sampson
Sampson

At just 2 years old, Sampson was found living as a stray and was brought into the shelter by a Good Samaritan. He was underweight at first, but the team at the shelter have helped him add a few pounds and get him healthy again. Sampson not only has a huge appetite for food, but he also craves love! He is a very outgoing and sweet little guy who just wants to give and get love anywhere he can find it. He may be small in stature, but he has a big heart and an even mightier spirit inside. Sampson gets along well with other cats and is good for a family with children. If you can continue giving Sampson the love he deserves, please call the Smithtown Animal Shelter at 631-360-7575.

COVID-19: Foster Opportunity:

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Smithtown Animal Shelter has had to restrict public access, including loyal volunteers. If you have no other pets or young children at home and are looking for a way to serve your community in this time of crisis, please consider signing up to be a foster. Foster parents provide temporary care for cats, kittens, and dogs in their own homes. Some animals need as little as two weeks of care, while others may need care for extended periods of time.
