89: Bunny Hofberg, Frankie's Feline Fund

Published: Dec. 6, 2016, 7:37 a.m.

Bunny Hofberg founded Frankie’s Feline Fund in New York City, with a focus on senior cats. She started volunteering at the ASPCA, then discovered that senior cats could benefit from a greater focus. Bunny depends on a dedicated foster network and generous donors to save these cats, and to provide the necessary care they need to find a permanent home.

One big resource for Frankie’s is Dr. Peter Soboroff, medical director of New York Cat Hospital
