Adoptable Brooklyn Cutie of the Week: Shakira

Here's this week's adoptable pet of the week. We're going to be featuring animals available for adoption at the Sean Casey Animal Rescue shelter in Kensington either every week or something close to that. If we help one kind soul hook up with one dog, cat or other creature in need of a home, we'll be quite content.


This is jet black beauty is named Shakira. She's an older adult cat who could use a great home so she can enjoy what would be called her "golden years," were she a Brooklynite looking for a retirement spot in Boca Raton. Here's the info that Sean Casey emailed us about Shakira:

"Give this beautiful adult girl a second chance! She's 10 years old, spayed, dewormed, treated with Revolution to prevent fleas, ticks, ear mites and heartworm, up to date with shots....all she needs is someone to love and to love her in return! Her adoption fee is $75.00 and she'll get one free exam at our vet, one free month of pet health insurance and a microchip. If you'd like to adopt Shakira please direct all questions and adoption application requests to nyanimalrescue (at) yahoo (dot) com.

Sean Casey Animal Rescue is located at 155 East 3rd Street in Kensington. They have a lot of different pets in need. Their number is 718.436.5163. In the meantime, just look at that face and picture her perched on your windowsill getting some sun.
