Story
This is Peep, she’s about 5 1/2 years old and I adopted her as a kitten. She loves to play fetch with Q-tips, and loves her jingle mouse toys. She cuddles when she wants, but is overall a love bug. I am looking for a good home for her as her, and I don’t want her going to just any home. She will take time to get adjusted as any animal would. She deserves the best, and I am unable to give that to her right now. I’m not sure if she will be good with other animals or kids. She has only ever been an only cat. She loves being around her humans so someone who isn’t gone a lot would be best. Lately she doesn’t like me anymore and I’m not sure why, but is very loving with my husband. Just seems like there is lots of trust and fear. She has never shown aggression until a few months ago, but only towards me no one else.

Story
Tractor was dropped off at Tractor Supply Company with a note that said “can’t afford vet bills, please help her”. She needs a specialized diet of Science Diet Z/D and has a prescription for prednisone. That seems to help with her allergies. She’s allergic to practically everything so she needs someone who can fully understand and afford her care. She is extremely sweet and loves to be pet. Shes not a lap cat but she will curl up near you. She’s not a big fan of my dog, but does tolerate her. My cats do not like Tractor so I am unsure if she is good with other cats.

I was scared and I had no where to go. I had my babies alone under a deck :(  Finally someone saw me and my babies and called 2nd Chance, but unfortunately by then I had lost one of my babies :(  Now my 3 other little ones and me are safe in the arms of 2nd Chance. I'm spayed, housetrained, had my shots and am super sweet. I love kids but I am not fond of dogs. I can tolerate cats but would prefer to be an only pet. I am ready for someone to love me FUREVERVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.Please fill out an adoption application: Adoption application (Dog) Adoption Application (Cat)   Please understand we do not adopt out dogs to families with children under the age of 5.

Story
It breaks my heart to have to rehome my cat, Thomas. I adopted him about six years ago, and he quickly became my best friend. Thomas is about six years old now, with a sweet disposition and an adorable, quirky personality. I’m looking for a new home for him that can give him the love and attention I can no longer give. He thrives in an active environment and gets along well with others, but he can be a little shy at first. I want to make sure he goes to someone who will be patient and understanding as he adjusts to a new space. Thomas is affectionate, playful, and a bit of a goofball. He loves to chase his toys and curl up on my lap while I work. It’s hard to let him go, but I know it’s the right thing to do for him. I just hope to find someone who will cherish him as much as I have. He is a great mouse catcher and even keeps his own nails trimmed. He comes with everything you need to have a cat: 2 covered litter boxes, water and timed food dispensers, toys, and more.
