In New Jersey's bustling animal shelters, a notable shift is underway this year.

Generation Z is fueling a surge in cat adoptions, attracted by their low-maintenance appeal in fast-paced lifestyles.

However, this trend casts a shadow over dogs, especially larger ones lingering longer without homes.

Housing crises and escalating costs in cities like Newark and Jersey City are steering adopters toward felines.

Jersey City Animal Care & Control achieved no-kill status for 2025, marking the occasion with reduced fees throughout August.

With cat adoption rates at 64% against falling dog stats, urgent action is essential.

In the vibrant New Jersey breakfast landscape, Meemom's shines as a family-inspired gem blending tradition and creativity.

Locals praise the feel-good atmosphere that turns every meal into a cherished moment.
