Seymour & Simon (formerly Jason)
Hello BARC ! I just wanted to let you know that Seymour and Simon (formerly Jason) are doing extremely well. My girlfriend and I adopted them a little over a year ago, and they're absolutely thriving. Seymour, who we mostly just call Moose, is such a
wonderful cat.

Willy
I am writing to tell you about the amazing life of Willy the dog, who's life was amazing because of you. In 1993, I adopted a wonderful cat from you, who wIe named Inez, after the woman who rescued her. In 1996, I decided it might be time to think about getting for a dog. I came to BARC, and found a little daschund/terrier mutt called Willy. It was love at first sight.

Stanley (formerly Graham)
We recently adopted Stanley (aka Graham), and he immediately made himself at home. He loves belly rubs and being picked up and scratched. He is one of the friendliest cats ever. He comes when you call him and runs to the door to greet any company.
Nantucket
I adopted my dog Nantucket, Tucket for short, from BARC back in October 2003. He inspired me to start a website about dog adoptions. Read Tucket's story and view his gallary of photos at: http://www.pupsdaily.com/about/
Coco (formerly Eddie)
I just wanted to let you know that Coco (formerly Eddie) is doing extremely well. I brought him home in January on a very cold, snowy day. He was a little shy at first, but came out of his shell within weeks.

Dash
Hello! -- We adopted Dash in July, and wanted to let you know he is doing great! He's already been camping a few times, has gone in the water on Eastern Long Island, and has had many nice, long walks here in Greenpoint.

Esmerelda and JoJo (formerly Gibson)
I’ve been volunteering in the BARC cat loft since ’05. In ’07, I adopted 4-year-old Esmeralda, a beautiful calico who was very shy. I was told she was semi-feral but on my weekly visits, I noticed a glimmer of interest whenever I went to pet her—she’d circle her cage, then come back to my hand for more!

Jazzy (formerly DJ Jazzy Jazz)
Hello BARC-- We are finally writing to you to update you on our wonderful cat, Jazzy (aka DJ Jazzy Jazz) - formerly Jasmine - who we adopted from you in February 2007. She is such an incredible cat - sweet, smart and always vocal.

Tango (formerly Matthew) and Missy
Tango (named Matthew at BARC) was found tied up on N 10th and Driggs in the rain. He was in a terrible state of neglect - a mass of matts and nails that curled under so he could hardly walk. It took BARC staff hours to cut away the tangles and matts (that's how he got the name Matthew). We adopted him Labor Day weekend of 2001 and have loved him ever since.
From Jenn & Jose
Emilio (formerly Bush)
I adopted Bush from BARC a few weeks ago. I immediately renamed him "Emilio" and he's turned out to be the greatest cat I've ever owned. He's extremely playful and entertaining, yet is also extremely affectionate.
