In 1999, Sharon Gannon & David Life, founders of Jivamukti Yoga, together with Janet Rienstra of Meta Records, formed Animal Mukti, in order to take positive action to end the needless deaths of 100,000 cats and dogs in New York City each year; 40,000 by euthanasia and the rest by neglect, abandonment, and abuse. Animal Mukti promotes well being for all animals, with the intention that all beings live happy and free. By sponsoring a free spay and neuter program at the Humane Society of NYC, Animal Mukti has consistently reduced the large number of unwanted and uncared for animals in New York City.
The Humane Society of New York helps more than 30,000 dogs and cats annually, by offering professional veterinary care 365 days a year, as well as shelter and adoption services. The Humane Society has long been noted for its innovative, highly individualized approach to animal care. The quality of each animal's life is paramount and the Humane Society is dedicated to finding just the right, responsible and reliable home for each animal in its care.
The Animal Mukti program at the Humane Society of NY relies on donations to continue offering free spay/neuter services to all. Please help by making a contribution, large or small. $25 covers a portion of the cost of one spay/neuter procedure. You can make a donation to the Jivamukti Yoga Center, or directly to the Humane Society of New York.
