Company Name:  Second Chance Cat Rescue
Description:  Second Chance is a rescue for cats testing positive for feline leukemia. I started this rescue in Sept. when I found a litter of stray kittens all testing positive. The vet told me they would have to be euthinized b/c no-one would take leukemia positive cats. I couldn't do that! It was then that I decided to start my own rescue. My husband built a 120 sq. ft cedar shed enclosed in a 600sq. ft kennel where the cats have plenty of food, bedding, toys, love and medical attention. I have recently gotten non-profit status, but am just starting trying to get donations and fundraising so my husband and I have paid everything out of pocket thus far ($4,000). In the past 4 months, I have rescued 52 cats/kittens that were stray, including a pregnant cat who just gave birth to 9 kittens in my bathroom the night after rescuing her. (mom was negative for leukemia) I currently have 12 luek. positives, and a few more on the way. When I find a stray that tests negative, I have the cat spayed/ nuetered ( kept in a diff. area than my pos. cats) and then they are adopted out. I am trying to adopt out my luekemia cats as well, but it is a little more difficult being they must remain indoors and live with no other cats. I have a friend who has participated in making snuggles for years and said that I may be able to get some donated for my rescue kitties as well. Please consider this request, my kitties would love it! Also consider adopting a special needs cat. To learn more about Leukemia cats and how many can develop an immunity to the disease living out normal, healthy lives, please go to my website. You can also find pictures of all cats available for adoption there as well. Thank you.
