3 To See At ACC: Meet Ivory, Fluffy and Tangerine

New York (CBSNewYork) CBSNewYork.com and 1010 WINS have teamed up with Animal Care Centers of New York City to let you know about some of the adoptable animals looking for loving homes in the city's shelters, and, where ACC's mobile adoption units are headed with even more great pets.

This week, we're featuring Ivory, Fluffy and Tangerine:

Ivory (10462)  Ivory, an ACC volunteer notes, wags "her tail at every human and every dog we pass. She's adorable! It's off leash that she shows off her adorable 'sit', and the best smile showcasing her tiny little cute teeth lined up like little Chiclets! Not interested in toys at this time, Ivory would rather be in my lap giving me nibbly little kisses, or giving me a stand up hug." Meet Ivory, who's approximately three years old, at this weekend's events (she'll be the Big Six Towers event in Woodside on Saturday!) or at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.

Fluffy (7840) "This friendly girl is an extreme cuddler," writes a volunteer. "She'll hop right up to you and flatten herself out for petting, eyes closed in utter contentment. She especially loves head and neck rubs. Fluffy's coat is as described; her fur is mostly creamy, but she has darker brown fur on her muzzle and ears. This wonderful girl would make a good choice for a first-time bunny owner." Meet Fluffy at ACC's Manhattan Care Center, 326 E. 110th Street.
