Mission
Animal Haven is a nonprofit organization that finds homes for abandoned cats and dogs throughout the Tri-State area, and provides behavior intervention when needed to improve chances of adoption.  Founded in 1967, we operate a limited admission shelter/adoption center in Manhattan and mobile adoption van. We also provide programs that enhance the bond between animals and people.

Animal Haven requests that all members of the household be present to meet the animal.

Cat adoptions are same day.  Dogs may take a few days.

Animal Intake
Animal Haven does accept owner relinquishments from the public.
Cats and dogs will be given a thorough behavior and medical evaluation prior to admission.

Animal Haven does not accept animals with a history of aggression or biting or any animal over the age of eight years old because older animals do not thrive in a shelter environment.

Animal Haven reserves the right to refuse any animal. Intake hours are Saturday and Thursday from 2 to 7pm. Appointments are required.

Please call 212.274.8511 or Contact Us for more information or to make an appointment.  Please note that dogs and cats must pass a behavior and medical evaluation before admitted.

Mobile Adoption Van
Animal Haven's mobile adoption van is on the road nearly every weekend throughout the year. Hours of operation on event days are 12:00-3pm.
Please visit our van page to find out more.

Space Rental
Animal Haven has rental space available for parties, lectures, performers and professional organizations holding seminars and/or training programs.  We also offer shorter rental periods for you and your dog to enjoy an indoor run on a rainy, hot or cold day.
