What Happened to Virginia Chipurnoi?

December 27, 2023 by Leave a Comment


The News

Virginia Chipurnoi is the President of the Board of the Humane Society of New York (HSNY), a large and well-funded animal shelter in Manhattan that has come under fire in recent years for warehousing animals. Until 2020, Chipurnoi not only served on the board, but she also volunteered at the shelter four days per week. Her presence helped to ensure that the Executive Director, Sandra DeFeo, and her staff were fulfilling the shelter’s mission to place animals into loving homes.

When COVID shut down the city, Chipurnoi, who is 89 years old, left New York. Former colleagues, who say she was showing signs of dementia in 2019, suspect that she moved to her weekend home in Connecticut, where her family owns a confectionary company called Chipurnoi Candy.

In July 2021, whistleblowers at the HSNY informed NYC-based animal advocates that adoptions had come to a virtual standstill 17 months earlier; that many of the animals had been living in cages for months or years; and that the Adoption Center was closed indefinitely to adopters. Several advocates who had a relationship with Chipurnoi attempted to contact her because they knew that she would address the warehousing of animals if she knew it was taking place. Chipurnoi did not respond, and, in 2022, her phone was disconnected.

Reporters from Pix11 News, AM New York, NBC and Huffington Post working on stories about the warehousing scandal also attempted to contact Chipurnoi through Chipurnoi Candy, but company representatives indicated that she was unavailable and unreachable.

Virginia Chipurnoi’s daughter, Sarah Gore Reeves, has refused to acknowledge the concerns of advocates despite her close ties to the Humane Society of New York.

Amid growing concerns about the plight of the animals, the HSNY’s former Adoption Director who retired in 2020, Bonnie Tischler, contacted two other board members, Alexandra Rowley and James Gregorio, who is an attorney. Rowley and Gregorio assured Tischler that the whistleblowers and advocates were misinformed, and they promised to provide her with evidence that adoptions were taking place as they had in the past. Two weeks later, Rowley and Gregorio told Tischler that they had resigned from the board and could not provide her with any information. Tischler took this to mean that DeFeo, the Executive Director, refused to release the information or that the information was so damning that Rowley and Gregorio no longer wanted to be affiliated with the HSNY.  Within days, a third board member, C. Jones Perry, resigned. None of the 11 remaining board members, most of whom are elderly and/or live in other states, responded to letters, emails and calls from Tischler and other advocates.

When advocates realized that the HSNY’s board was effectively defunct and that DeFeo was no longer accountable to the board, they began to publicly question why Mrs. Chipurnoi was still listed as the President and why fundraising solicitations were being sent out in her name. They wanted shelter community stakeholders and members of the public to know that the primary guardrail in place to ensure that adoptions were being facilitated, an active board president, had come down and that DeFeo, who describes the shelter as a “foster home” and cages as “apartments,” was no longer accountable to a board.

Photos from VirginiaChipurnoi.com suggest that Virginia Chipurnoi still serves as the organization's board president.

In an effort to give the public the impression that Virginia Chipurnoi is still serving as its board President, the Humane Society of New York launched a website in her name.

In response to advocates’ questions about Chipurnoi’s ability to serve as board president, the HSNY has taken steps to give the public the impression that Virginia Chipurnoi is still capable and active. In 2021, a year after Chipurnoi left New York, the HSNY reported on its 990 tax form that she volunteered at the shelter 30 hours/week. In September 2023, the Humane Society launched the website VirginiaChipurnoi.com which features articles with titles like “How to Spot, Treat and Prevent Gastric Dilation and Volvulus in Dogs” and “Why Canine Dental Examinations Are So Important.” Mrs. Chipurnoi is neither a vet nor a vet tech. Even if she was not cognitively impaired, she would not be qualified to write articles about gastric dilation, canine dental exams and yeast infections in dogs. The most recent article, posted on December 12th, encourages people who cannot adopt a dog to foster one, despite the fact that the Humane Society of New York has, to the frustration of shelter animal advocates, a no-foster policy.

The website also claims that Chipurnoi “leads the HSNY in its advocacy against live animal markets, horse slaughter, roadside zoos, canned hunts, and other issues.”  The HSNY doesn’t work on any of those issues, but, even if they did, how could Mrs. Chipurnoi, who went silent almost four years ago, be “leading” these campaigns?

In a meeting with lawyers representing the state Attorney General’s office, which oversees charities in New York, Tischler and the advocates asked if the absence of a functioning board of directors and the organization’s failure to fulfill its mission violate state law. While sympathetic, the lawyers indicated that they would not consider taking enforcement action unless the advocates could provide data on the number of adoptions taking place. While that information is not publicly available because the HSNY is a private charity, advocates did learn that, during a 2022 inspection by New York City’s Department of Health, the HSNY claimed to have facilitated an average of one adoption per week between March and October that year. For a shelter that takes in $3 million in donations each year, is located in a bustling residential area and has the capacity for 125 – 175 animals according to its own tax forms, that number is, according to the advocates, “abysmal.”

Adoptions Director Denounces Animal Warehousing at Humane Society of New York

February 23, 2022 by Leave a Comment


The News

Bonnie Tischler, the former Adoptions Director of The Humane Society of New York (HSNY), is sounding the alarm about animal warehousing at the prominent cat and dog shelter on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. When she retired in early 2020 after serving for 22 years, Tischler assumed that her boss, Executive Director Sandra DeFeo, would hire a replacement. In August 2021, she learned that a whistleblower was reporting that adoptions had come to a virtual standstill and that the shelter was closed to the public for the indefinite future. In an on-camera interview with TheirTurn, Tischler speaks about the plight of the animals, the management culture that enables warehousing to take place and her decision to come out of retirement to advocate on their behalf.

Upon learning about the warehousing allegations in August 2021, TheirTurn conducted a two-month investigation and, in October 2021, posted a detailed report. The investigation, which corroborated the whistleblower allegations, revealed the following:

  1. HSNY ignores adoption applications. (TheirTurn knows of 13 individuals who did not receive a response after submitting applications.)
  2. HSNY’s website lists just 14 of the reported 90 animals in the shelter.
  3. HSNY does virtually no adoption promotion on social media. (In response to a letter-writing campaign, HSNY made two unconvincing posts on Instagram)
  4. Adopters are not meeting the animals because the shelter is closed to the public.
  5. Sandra DeFeo is misleading the public about why the building is closed. HSNY’s website states that it’s due to COVID, but a lawyer retained by TheirTurn asserts that HSNY would expose itself to another ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) lawsuit if it reopens without making the building accessible to the public. If COVID was the reason for restricted access to the building, then DeFeo could allow vaccinated, masked adopters into the building to meet the animals who need homes.

When confronted with questions about animal warehousing, DeFeo claims that HSNY has been “doing adoptions all along.” Tischler, the former Adoptions Director, disputes that assertion, not only because of the evidence demonstrating otherwise, but also because members of the public don’t know that the animals exist. “If the building is closed to the public and the animals aren’t listed online, much less promoted, then few people are submitting adoption applications in the first place.”

During her interview with TheirTurn, Tischler also expressed concerns about DeFeo’s belief that the animals’ cages are like apartments. “If she believes that the animals are ‘home’ in their ‘apartments’ at the shelter, then she’s not going to act with a sense of urgency to find them forever homes.”

The Humane Society of New York has been warehousing cats and dogs for at least 22 months, according to an anonymous whistleblower and a two-month TheirTurn investigation which corroborated his or her allegations

Since posting the report, TheirTurn launched a grassroots campaign calling on HSNY to either reopen the shelter to the public and resume adoptions in earnest OR send the animals to foster homes or adoption facilities that are sending animals home. To date, the campaign consists of a Facebook page, a petition and a letter-writing campaign targeting several of the organization’s board members.

As of February 22, 276 advocates sent letters to Humane Society of New York board members calling on them to reopen the shelter to the public and resume adoptions or send the animals to foster homes or adoption facilities that are sending animals home.

Two of the five board members targeted in the letter-writing campaign, C. Jones Perry and James Gregorio, resigned from the board. Both men are attorneys.

Among the board members who have ignored the letters are Cornelia Guest and Alexandra Rowley. Guest, a famous socialite who describes herself on social media as an “animal rights” advocate who “finds animals new homes every day,” owns a catering company that sells meat and other animal products. Rowley, who adopted a dog from Bonnie Tischler, has ignored her letters and phone calls. “The board members, many of whom I’ve known for years, are ignoring me, despite my 22 years of service to the Humane Society,” said Tischler. “Maybe that’s because they can’t argue with the truth — that the animals have been languishing in cages for 22 months or longer because HSNY is doing hardly any adoptions.”

Despite the fact that she describes herself as an “animal rights” advocates who “finds homes for animals every day,” Humane Society of New York Board Member has ignored hundreds of letters from advocates concerned about animal warehousing at her shelter.

By turning a blind eye to the animal warehousing, the board members are, according to Tischler, betraying the animals for whom they are responsible, failing to fulfill their duty to uphold the shelter’s mission and deceiving their donors, who believe they are contributing to a bonafide adoption center.

TapInto Sutton Place/Lenox Hill, a media outlet on the East Side of Manhattan, reported on animal warehousing controversy in November 2020.

Instead of addressing the warehousing, several of the board members are participating in HSNY’s deception, posting congratulatory comments on the few posts in which the shelter is attempting to give the impression that it’s doing adoptions. On February 14th, Alexandra Gore and Sarah Gore Reeves, the two adult daughters of HSNY Board President Virginia Chipurnoi, wrote “Love @humanesoceityNY” and “So cute” on one of these posts, despite having been informed about the animal warehousing by TheirTurn in January. According to HSNY insiders, Mrs. Chipurnoi, who is in her mid-80s and lives out of state, is elderly and unable to fulfill her duties as President of the Board.

In response to complaints that it is not promoting animals for adoption, the Humane Society of New York posted two animals for adoption in February, but the posts contained very little information and did not encourage people to submit adoption applications.

According to scientific studies, keeping animals in cages for prolonged periods of time negatively impacts their physical and mental health. It also flies in the face of best practices for animal shelters. “Many of the animals at HSNY have been living in cages for two or more years, “said Tischler. “If HSNY continues to keep the shelter closed to the public while doing virtually no adoption promotion, these animals will spend the rest of their lives in a cage.”

With $6 million in annual revenues and $42 million in net assets, HSNY can afford to hire a new Adoptions Director and make the building ADA compliant in order to be able to reopen to the public. If it cannot or will not take these steps, then it should send the animals to adoption facilities that are sending animals home.

Animals Languish in Prominent NYC Shelter That’s Keeping Out The Public Under False Pretenses

October 12, 2021 by Leave a Comment


The News

On July 22, 2021, an anonymous whistleblower informed animal rights activists in New York City that dozens of cats and dogs had been languishing in cages for at least 15 months at the Humane Society of New York, an animal shelter and low-cost vet clinic in midtown Manhattan. The whistleblower alleged that shelter management closed the building to the public under false pretenses; has done virtually nothing to find homes for the animals; and has discouraged people from adopting in order to avoid the extra work associated with introducing people to the animals when the building is closed.

Upon hearing the allegations that HSNY is warehousing animals despite its mission to place them in homes, advocates with TheirTurn, which is based in NYC, decided to investigate. 

The Humane Society of New York is centrally located in a heavily populated residential neighborhood in Manhattan, but members of the public cannot enter the building to meet the animals who need homes

The Humane Society of New York is centrally located in a heavily populated, easily-accessible residential neighborhood in Manhattan, but the animals are languishing in cages because members of the public cannot enter the building to meet the animals.

FINDINGS:

HSNY IS MISLEADING THE PUBLIC ABOUT WHY THE BUILDING IS CLOSED

The HSNY closed its building to the public in April 2020. During a phone call on August 16th, 2021, Sandra DeFeo, the Executive Director, told Donny Moss of TheirTurn that, in order to protect her staff from COVID-19, she would not allow anyone in the building to meet the animals. She also stated that she has no plans to re-open.

The Humane Society claims that the adoption center is closed to the public due to COVID when, in fact, it cannot re-open until it takes steps to make the building wheelchair accessible

The Humane Society claims that the adoption center is closed to the public due to COVID when, in fact, it cannot re-open until it takes steps to make the building accessible to people with disabilities.

According to attorney Bonnie Klapper, who reviewed an ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) lawsuit filed against HSNY, Ms. DeFeo cannot re-open the building to the public until HSNY begins renovations to make it accessible to people with disabilities.

A wheelchair-bound client of the Humane Society of New York's veterinary clinic sued the organization under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

If fear of COVID-19 was the real issue, then Ms. DeFeo could require adopters to show proof of vaccination and wear a mask. These are safety precautions being taken by dozens of other New York City shelters that are open to the public, including Bideawee, Animal Haven, Best Friends and Animal Care Centers of NYC (ACC).

HSNY IS DISCOURAGING CALLERS FROM ADOPTING

In August, TheirTurn asked several advocates, including people interested in adopting, to call HSNY to inquire about the process. In every case, Anne-Marie Karash, the Associate Director of HSNY, directed them to submit an application and wait for a response. When the callers asked specific questions about how they could meet the animals after submitting their application, Ms. Karash refused to provide any information and, in several instances, suggested they contact another shelter.

HSNY IS NOT RESPONDING TO ADOPTION APPLICATIONS

TheirTurn asked nine other people who have or had companion animals and were willing to adopt to fill out and submit adoption applications. HSNY did not respond to any of them.

Six of the nine people called HSNY one or more times to follow up on their applications. Two of them left voicemails but did not receive a return call. Four of them called back until they reached Ms. Karash, who either discouraged them from adopting or told them that the Executive Director of the shelter would follow up with them, which did not happen.

HSNY DOES VIRTUALLY NO ADOPTION PROMOTION ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Since closing its shelter to the public 18 months ago, HSNY has posted just 12 photos of adoptable animals (on Instagram only), and it did not respond to questions posted by people who expressed an interest.

HSNY rarely promotes adoptions on social media. When they do, they do not respond to inquiries from people who are interested.

THE HSNY WEBSITE LISTS JUST 14 ANIMALS, A FRACTION OF THE TOTAL

According to the whistleblower, the list of animals on HSNY’s website is not only incomplete, but it is also several years old. If the 14 animals listed are still there, then they have been living in cages for far too long. If they are gone, then HSNY is wasting the time of people who are taking the time to apply for them.

The Humane Society of NY lists 14 animals available for adoption despite having 85, according to the organization’s Executive Director

ADOPTERS HAVE NO WAY TO MEET THE CATS

HSNY is located on a busy street in midtown Manhattan. While HSNY staff could, if motivated to do so, bring dogs outside to meet prospective adopters, they cannot introduce people to cats in this setting. That might explain why HSNY has made just two social media posts about adoptable cats since closing the building to the public in April 2020.

HSNY HAS AT LEAST 85 ANIMALS

During the August 16th call with Donny Moss, Ms. DeFeo stated that HSNY has approximately 85 cats and dogs in the shelter. HSNY’s tax forms indicate a much higher number of animals in the shelter– approximately 200  in 2018 and 175 in 2019.

Tax filing indicate that the Humane Society of New York has approximately "175 animals in the shelter."

Tax filings indicate that the Humane Society of New York has approximately “175 animals in the shelter.”

In March, 2020, the adoptions manager of 22 years resigned. Ms. DeFeo has not replaced her, and she is now the point person for adoptions, despite the fact that she is the Executive Director of an organization with $6 – $7 million in annual revenues.

THE ANIMALS’ CAGES ARE “APARTMENTS” 

When asked by Donny Moss why she doesn’t send the animals to foster homes or active adoption centers until she re-opens the building to the public, Ms. DeFeo stated that HSNY is their foster home. She also described their cages and kennels as “apartments.” 

The Executive Director of the Humane Society of New York, a shelter that is not allowing members of the public to meet the animals, describes the cages as “apartments.”

CONCLUSION

Given that the cages at the HSNY are filled with animals who need homes, we don’t know why the organization is neither responding to adoption applications nor promoting the adoptable animals online. Ms. DeFeo either doesn’t want to dedicate the extra time needed to adopt while she keeps the building closed to the public, or she truly believes that the animals are “home” at HSNY. One thing we do know (and any well-intended, experienced animal welfare professional would agree) is that animals are better off in real homes with families than in shelters. In a loving home, animals can move about freely, interact with their human families, play, climb, explore, patrol, stalk and engage in other behaviors that come naturally to them.  In shelters, which are stressful for animals, the dogs and cats spend the vast majority of their time in cages and kennels, where they pace, over-groom and show other signs of distress. 

If Ms. DeFeo is unwilling to begin making renovations that would allow her to re-open the building to the public, then she should send the animals to foster homes and/or adoption centers where they would have a chance of finding permanent home. The animals who have been living in HSNY cages for months or years have waited long enough.

Note: In August and September, Donny Moss and several other advocates sent letters to HSNY board member Cornelia Guest to address the issues raised in this article. She did not respond.

OTHER FINDINGS

HSNY SHOULD BE A HIGH VOLUME ADOPTION SHELTER 

Unlike NYC’s municipal shelters, HSNY is located in an easily-accessible, heavily-trafficked residential neighborhood in midtown Manhattan. Given its prime location and the large number of homeless animals it has at any given time, HSNY should be a high-volume shelter that sends dogs and cats to foster homes and/or permanent homes every day. If Ms. DeFeo was motivated to find homes for the animals, then she could be emptying several cages every day, as other shelters do, even before she re-opens the building.

FULL CAGES AT “NO KILL” HSNY = MORE KILLING AT OPEN-ADMISSION SHELTERS

If HSNY doesn’t move its adoptable animals into permanent homes, then it can’t free up space to accept newly surrendered animals. As a result, those animals are often taken to open-admission shelters that kill adoptable animals due to over-crowding.

HSNY IS PASSING OFF BREEDER DOGS AS RESCUES

According to the whistleblower, a backyard breeder in Brooklyn has, over the course of many years, given HSNY hundreds of designer dogs in exchange for free vet care for her own animals. Ms. DeFeo passes these dogs off as rescues, often giving them to friends of HSNY and to celebrities. In 2021, for example, Ms. DeFeo gave Shih Tzus to Kelly Ripa and her producer Michael Gelman. For every breeder dog who HSNY takes in, a dog in a high kill shelter in need of rescue pays the ultimate price.

THE LOW-COST VET CLINIC IN THE SAME BUILDING PROVIDES VITAL SERVICES

Each year, HSNY provides thousands of New Yorkers with high quality, low cost vet care in a clinic housed in the same building as the shelter. This clinic is a lifeline for people who cannot afford to pay standard prices for veterinary care. Ms. DeFeo should make the necessary ADA renovations so that members of the public can not only meet the animals in the shelter who need homes, but also accompany their animals into the clinic, especially for euthanasia appointments.

Activist Delivers Message to Korean President About Dog Meat Trade

November 9, 2017 by Leave a Comment


The News

Susan Song meant it when she told her fellow advocates, “We’re going to deliver our message to President Moon Jae-in face-to-face.”

After working full time on the anti-dog meat campaign for 14 months, Ms. Song, a New York-based animal rights activist, got her chance. President Moon Jae-in was scheduled to be in New York City for a week in September 2017 for the United Nations General Assembly, and she was determined to find him and make a plea to save the dogs and cats of South Korea.

She researched his schedule of public appearances so that she and her colleagues could position themselves in a spot where they would have the best chance to encounter him. She also bought a traditional Korean dress (hanbok) so that she would stand out in a crowd.

On President Moon’s very first day in town, Ms. Song got her chance. While standing in front of a hotel where President Moon was scheduled to speak, she saw a motorcade approaching and thought “This is it.”  Seconds later, she saw the President in the third car. Gridlock traffic prevented the motorcade from moving ahead, so Ms. Song and her fellow activists had his undivided attention for almost two minutes.

“He saw my traditional Korean dress and smiled broadly, but the smile turned to sadness and empathy when we showed him our posters about the horrific Korean dog meat trade,” said Ms. Song. “I know his response was genuine not only because I saw the look in his eyes but also because he has two rescue dogs and a cat. He understands and cares about  the plight of these poor animals, which is why I have no doubt that he will shut down the dog meat trade.”

In November, Ms. Song and her husband traveled to South Korea to meet with local activists, participate in protests, and discover what else she could do from the U.S. to assist in the effort to save the dogs and cats of South Korea.

Dozens of Activists Protest Dog Meat Eating Festival At Korean Consulate

July 20, 2016 by Leave a Comment


The News

On July 15th, approximately 40 activists staged a protest at the South Korean consulate in New York City to demand that the government ban a dog meat eating festival, Boknal, that takes place every July in Korea. While displaying the posters and chanting “Cultural Justification is No Excuse For Animal Abuse,” the protesters distributed handouts to pedestrians and gathered hundreds of signatures on a petition that will be hand-delivered to Korean diplomats.

“We stand in solidarity with the Korean activists who risk their lives to rescue dogs from hellish farms and who give them the loving homes they deserve,” said Roberto Bonelli of Animals Battalion, the group that organized the protest. “All animal slaughter is wrong, regardless of the species, and, when activists around the world rise up in protest, we will be there to support them.”

Now I look at these at these pictures, and I think of all the unlucky dogs that are still there.”

Every year, approximately 2.5 million dogs are slaughtered in South Korea. Some of them are specifically raised for food (on filthy backyard farms); others are kidnapped or were abandoned by their owners. When transported to the slaughterhouse, the dogs are stuffed into crates so small that they cannot move. The methods of slaughter include throat-slitting, bludgeoning with metal poles or hanging. Some dogs are intentionally tortured before being slaughtered because of a superstitious belief that the meat of tortured animals is healthier.

In South Korea, dogs around 2.5 million dogs are killed for their flesh every year.
