Happy Homes is Where Rescue Stories Begin

Finding purrfect forever, Happy Homes for all our adoptable animals since 2012

Since 2012, we’ve rescued and homed a countless number of animals—and we’re still going strong! At Happy Homes Animal Rescue, we are dedicated to providing a loving, safe environment for homeless, unwanted, abandoned, and abused animals.

A World Where Every Animal is Valued

Happy Homes Animal Rescue is driven by the vision of a world where every animal is valued, properly cared for, happy, content, and free from the danger of homelessness. We simply care!

Our mission is to provide a loving, safe environment for animals by any means necessary. We continuously help reduce the number of cats being euthanized in overcrowded shelters, as well as rescue cats and kittens from the streets through TNR (Trap, Neuter and Return).

Beyond finding forever homes, we aim to educate our community on the ever-growing animal population and the critical need to responsibly spay or neuter all companion animals.

Ready to Welcome a New Family Member

We are committed to finding loving homes for our animals. We diligently review all adoption applications to ensure our cats and kittens go to exceptional, caring homes.

All Our Cats Get a Healthy Start

We partner with vets to ensure all our animals receive comprehensive medical care before adoption.
Every adoptable animal has been:

  • Spayed/Neutered
  • De-Wormed
  • Given age-appropriate vaccines
  • Fecal and FIV/FELV tested
  • Microchipped with lifetime registration

Why We Recommend Adopting in Pairs

We advocate for healthy social development. Animals are social creatures by nature, and young animals, in particular, benefit from having a companion. We strongly recommend that young animals are adopted in pairs or to a home with an existing young, friendly pet to ensure they thrive.

Whether it is helping with daily care, assisting at adoption events, or simply giving our animals the love and attention they need through fostering, your time makes a real life-changing difference.

Foster Home-Based and Serving Our Community

Happy Homes Animal Rescue operates as a foster home-based system. We rely on the dedication of our volunteers throughout East Brunswick, Old Bridge, Staten Island, and more to provide safe havens for our animals until adoption.

Meet and Greets: When the time comes, approved adopters will coordinate with one of our fosters to meet their animal of choice at one of our safe, agreed upon locations.
