Story
Soul is a 4 year old neutered male born circa April 2021. He is approximately 13 pounds & above average in overall size. His fur is incredibly soft & medium length. Also affectionately known as Soul Boy, he grew up with his litter mate, Luna, in a loving home with a senior Chihuahua. Soul was hesitant about the dog initially but became indifferent because the dog had no interest. It is suggested that Soul enters a home with no other pets, since he is having conflict issues with Luna & has not experienced large dogs. Soul has a laid back personality & enjoys playing with toys like strings & cat nip. He spends his days watching out the window on a cat perch & snuggling on a pillow. Soul Boy is FIV negative, with perfect health & clean teeth. He is incredibly sweet & loves scratches, but can be shy around new faces. He is being rehomed for fear aggression against his owner’s new boyfriend & his cat sibling. Adoption fee may be waived if proof of good home is provided.

Story
Miss Daisy was rescued by Furvana as a pregnant girl and successfully delivered 5 healthy kittens. She is estimated to be about a year old and is an active girl with a feisty personality. She can take a little while to adjust to new surroundings, but she does love her head scratches and treats so bribes may help with this one. While she is playful she is also territorial so we feel is suited to be an only cat. Daisy was rescued off of the street and is still new to being an indoor cat but we believe with patience, love, and the right environment she will blossom like the true Daisy she is. She would do best in a home with no young children.

Miracle Domestic Shorthair 9 years 2 months, Female, Medium Ok!!! I finally made it out to be adopted! My name is Miracle!!!!! I am a kill-list survivor. I did not do well at the shelter or in the shelter environment at all and it almost cost me my life. Luckily the nice people at NCR didn't let that happen. Once I found my way into a quiet home and my foster gave me time, I showed what an absolute love I am! I lived with someone my whole life so far and they passed away. I am estimated to be 7-9 years old. After that happened it took me awhile to adjust but I'm back! I trust people and love attention. When I go to a new home, I need time, but I promise if you give it to me, I will be loving on you in 1 month or less! Just check out my videos and pics!!!! I'm looking for my forever home with no other animals and a quiet place for me and my mom or dad. A single person or couple without children would be ideal for me. My name is really what I am, because I have overcome a lot and am finally happy again. If you are looking to make a difference in a cat's life... give me a chance. I will end up your bestie!!! PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE AT WWW.NEXTCHANCERESCUE.ORG TO APPLY. ***Due to NCR being a volunteer only rescue with limited time and resources, we do not interview or speak about any of our animals without first reviewing your application which is not binding until fully executed. For information on policies, adoption fees etc, please check out our website. Thank you for understanding and please apply.
