Welcome to Powers Street Cats and Little Furry Friends adoption site. We were created last June, 2010, due to the overwhelming amount of feral cats in NYC. And especially on the block of our street. There are an estimated 750,000 cats and kittens roaming the streets in all five boroughs of New York. But with the help of the New York City Feral Cat Initiative and their TNR (trap-neuter-return) program the number of feral cats is reducing.
All of the kittens previously featured here were the offspring of the feral cats on my block. They were rescued by PSC due to poor health and injuries which if ignored would have end up dying. After months of recovery, they all regained their health and eventually adopted to loving homes for. Please take some time reading their bios and stories below. PSC is progressively making efforts to keep the feral cats safe in this neighborhood. To date, 45 cats/kittens have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and 12 adopted to forever homes. And that is just within our one block radius. Check back frequently for updates on these kittens and our progress on Powers St TNR missions. Thanks for visiting!

Grayer and Orangesicle

While on a mission to rescue four sick kittens I came upon these two under a box curdle up together. At about 3 weeks old they needed to be bottle fed about every 4 hours. (Little known to myself I instantly had to become a mother) After weeks of bottle after bottle they were finally growing and eating kitten food. Although Orangesicle had a brief rough set back with a 2 day stay at the vet, he finally regained strength to chase after his brother once again. They are now about 3 1/2 months old and completely stolen my heart... keepers!
