About this shelter

Pitter patter paws in Ronkonkoma, NY

My name is John Riley, and I have dedicated over 29 years to animal rescue. My journey began with feral cats in my own backyard, where I initially trapped them and transported them to a veterinarian two hours away for neutering, as there were no spay and neuter programs at that time. Over the years, my efforts have evolved, and I have been operating a full-scale animal rescue organization with 501(c)(3) status for the past 25 years.
