My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

** Please note: As a bonded pair, Sugar and Spice must be adopted together. //

Sugar and Spice are bonded sisters who came to us from Key West SPCA after Hurricane Irma destroyed their shelter. Sugar is a Florida White with red eyes, and her sister, Spice, is a Chinchilla mix with brown eyes. These two (2) girls are medium to large sized, and have had experience in a variety of foster homes with other pets, as well as with human children, and so would do well in almost any home situation. Because they are larger, they need room to roam, and need a house where they can have a larger than normal space to live in. They are friendly and don't mind being touched and petted, but aren't necessarily thrilled with being held. //

In early 2018, it was discovered that Spice had some blood in her urine, with thanks to her then very observant Foster Mom. A subsequent vet visit revealed that Spice had a large bladder stone. Surgery was immediately scheduled, and the stone (which was about the size of a ping pong ball) was successfully removed, and Spice completely recovered. Ever since, Spice has been a happy, hoppy bunny, who is longing for her forever home. //


* Our adoption fee for a bonded pair is $110.
