Porch Roof

For the past few years we have had major leaks in our porch roof and up until now, estimates to fix the roof have been way to expensive. This year a local contractor, Deluxe Contracting, offered to perform the repairs at very reasonable rates.. He did a fantastic job, and in addition, came back to fix some existing leaks we had on our main roof at no cost. We highly recommend them for any roofing or contracting needs you might have. They truly are a friend of the shelter!!!

Plea

Our first half of 2009 is coming to a close. Our summer kittten season is upon us. We desperately need your donation dollars now. Anything you can spare will help to care for bottle fed kittens like the ones recently listed on our FB Cause page. If you can donate your time or help in another way, please email us.

Great room Welcome to Mid Hudson Animal Aid!

MHAA, also known as the Essie Dabrusin Cat Sanctuary, was established in 1979. We're a non-profit, no-kill, free-range cat shelter located off Route 9D in Beacon, New York and are completely funded by donations. We have a paid staff to take care of the shelter and the needs of our animals but our Board is totally volunteer. We also have numerous volunteers who help with cleaning, cat smoozing and other items. (If you would be interested in volunteering, click on the Volunteers link on the left of this page.

We have more than 150 beautiful, healthy cats AND kittens waiting for homes. Whether you're looking for a furry companion who's sweet and petite or perky and playful, we've got the perfect pet for you.

If you're considering adopting a cat or kitten here are a few of the reasons you should make it a MHAA Cat/Kitten.

Our cats and kittens have been spayed or neutered. If you get a cat elsewhere and it needs to be spayed or neutered it will cost between $150-$300 at a vet's office.

Our animals have been dewormed and have received
their Rabies, Distemper and Feline Leukemia shots. Greatroom

Again, at an outside vet these shots will cost you approximately $50.

Most of our animals have been micro-chipped. This allows any vet or animal protection agency to track down the owners. Micro-chipping an animal at a local vet normally costs $90-100.

Our animals have been socialized, which is essential if your cat will be meeting children and other pets.

You also receive a bag of Science Diet Dry Cat/Kitten food with each adoption (value $14.00).
