A Note about Seer Farms’ No Kill policy Most animals placed at Seer Farms come through our Out of Crisis program and are eventually reunited with their families – approximately 75%. Those not reunited are cared for until a new home is found. For those who do not get adopted, they live out their lives at Seer Farms getting veterinary care as needed and in accordance with our no kill policy. Although “no kill” is a phrase that is bandied about in animal welfare circles and often lacks clear definition, for purposes of our policy “no kill” is operationalized in the following manner: The only justification for euthanasia is when it is the only recourse in the humane interest of the animal; that is, when an animal experiences suffering that is enduring, unmanageable, and whose source is reasonably expected to be ultimately terminal. Seer Farms will seek medical advice in making this determination on a case by case basis. For animals placed in our Out of Crisis program, medical decisions -including decisions about euthanasia – are undertaken in consultation with the animals’ family, provided the family can be located. Less than one percent of the animals at Seer Farms are euthanized.

Since Seer Farms first opened its doors in January, 2009:

The Out of Crisis Program has provided a haven for the beloved animals of more than 800 families.
More than 1300 cats, 600 dogs, several birds, Reptiles, bunnies, and small Mammals are currently or Have been residents at Seer Farms in both the Out of Crisis Program and In our unique feral cat colony.
More than 1250 dogs and cats from the Out of Crisis program have already been reunited with their families.
Nearly 600 companion animals From 250 Superstorm Sandy survivor families have sought refuge at Seer Farms.

Seer Farms has also established an innovative indoor/outdoor feral cat colony, which currently houses 120 cats, and one of NJ’s only permanent FIV+ colonies.

Because some animals in Seer Farms’ care eventually convert to permanent residents, Seer Farms provides adoption services for these animals and has secured the adoption of nearly 200 cats and dogs.
