About this shelter

Purrs N Pups Animal Rescue Team in Riverdale, NJ

Purrs N Pups Animal Rescue Team is a rescue organization based in Riverdale, New Jersey, about 9 miles southeast of Paterson. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization totally dedicated to helping stray, unwanted, abandoned, and homeless pets find permanent loving homes. The organization does not own a physical shelter and instead relies solely on volunteer foster homes to provide temporary care, shelter, and love for animals until they find their forever homes. Adoptable pets can be viewed through their Petfinder listings, and the group also welcomes volunteers, fosters, and donations to support its work.
