Story

It is that time of year again where we band together in the name of Billy Bear and try to save as many lives as we can!! Most of you know the story of Billy Bear and how important Second Chance is in my life. If I have learned anything through this Covid pandemic it is that I am so fortunate. Most of my family and friends have not been hugely impacted by Covid (thankfully!). Here is our chance to make a difference and do what we can to help!

My current crew of kittens (Ian, Gus and Roo) have been a very expensive group and they still aren't totally healthy and ready to find their forever homes yet. Ian is still fighting eye infections and is on 3 different medicines 2x a day (that bill is adding up!). And sweet little Roo had to have one of her eyes removed. So yes, we need all the help we can get this year just with this crew alone and all of their medical needs. Any help you can provide is very much appreciated!

Join me in making a difference for the animals of Second Chance Pet Adoptions! Every dollar raised through my participation in their FURtual Racing for Rescues 2021 event helps to support the stray and abandoned cats and dogs in their care. While some of the animals require extensive medical care, even the healthiest among them will incur routine costs such as food ($15-$40 depending on size), vaccinations ($15-20), and dewormer ($12 to over $50 for very large dogs). Additionally, all of their animals are microchipped and spayed/neutered before adoption, with costs for cats and dogs ranging up to $159. Second Chance also funds the spay/neuter surgeries for cats and dogs owned or cared for by members of the public to take a proactive approach to ending animal homelessness. These are goals I believe in, and I hope you do, too! Funds donated by my loved ones will allow Second Chance to help even more homeless dogs and cats in our community to find their forever homes! Will you donate?
