Geoff, There is a private animal shelter organization which places homeless cats and dogs with new families. The website of the shelter is www.moscowanimals.org . The director is Barbara Spier. Her email is [email protected]. If anyone else knows of any other animal shelters in Moscow please post them as a "For Your Info" factoid. After our "remont" is finished we will be looking at this shelter and others to adopt at least one and possibly two cats. Although I love dogs too our apartment is too small to accomodate one and we both work so walking a dog is problematic.
I got this info from a free Passports magazine but Expat said they would not put-up any article that advertised any competitor.
