Second Chance Kitten Rescue
Share
We are an all volunteer, up and coming 501(c)(3) rescue, dedicated to saving lives of Arizona's free roaming & feral, cats & kittens.
We TNR, rescue, rehabilitate & find Fur Ever homes for cats & kittens in need. Second Chance Kitten Rescue was founded in 2019, however we didn't establish our corporation until 2024. We are an all volunteer 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization dedicated to help solving Arizona's feral and free-roaming community cat overpopulation crisis. Second Chance Kitten Rescue is committed to humanely reducing the feral and free-roaming cat overpopulation in Arizona through the use of Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) as a long-term solution. TNVR humanely stabilizes the population, improves the cats’ lives, addresses neighbors’ concerns, and helps the entire community reach a solution that benefits everyone. Second Chance Kitten Rescue TNVR is the most humane and effective method available to end feral and free-roaming cat overpopulation. Our goal is to make Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) fully understood, accepted and practiced in every community. We started off with trapping and releasing, then quickly realized we had tons of tiny helpless fur babies that needed a lot of attention and most importantly we needed to keep them off the streets. In addition to our TNR efforts, we provide a safe environment, rehabilitate, provide medical care and eventually rehome these precious babies and in many cases, we are able to help their mothers, fathers and offspring find their Fur Ever homes too! Your donations help keep our mission alive and saves the lives of hundreds of innocent cats/kittens each year. Our efforts wouldn't be possible without caring people like yourself. Thank you for your support. Second Chance Kitten Rescue provides fundamental services for feral and free-roaming community cats in Arizona. We advocate for spay/neuter and Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) for all feral cats and free-roaming cats in Western New York. We provide access to local high-quality, high-volume low-cost spay/neuter surgery in a safe and humane environment. We collaborate with others and mentor like-minded organizations to increase spay/neuter and Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) in their communities and neighborhoods. We loan humane traps to the public for TNVR and provide education on humanely trapping feral cats for TNVR. We offer guidance and information to feral cat caregivers on the long-term care and management of feral/free roaming cat colonies. We provide businesses, individuals and residential complexes, with information on the many benefits of implementing a TNVR program in their communities and neighborhoods. We provide them with the tools needed to establish TNVR as an effective, cost-saving and humane method of managing feral and free-roaming cat “community cat” numbers. Our organization is a big advocated of Animal Welfare. Please view our website for additional information.

After an incredibly slow summer of adoptions we had a very special one today.
Layla, who has never let us hold her or fully let her guard down was adopted by an amazing couple. We don’t know Layla’s story but we rescued her from a larger rescue and have given her love and security every day since.
After months in our care she has shown signs of wanting love and affection. The most beautiful part is she adores other kitties! She really shows a different side when interacting with the kittens at the rescue and has been special for us to witness.
We are so thankful that Layla is being given a chance even though she will need a lot of patience and time. Adoptions like these are so special. Have a beautiful life sweet girl ♥️🐾

Adoptions may be slow… but the need never is.
Summer has been a little quiet when it comes to adoptions, but unfortunately, the number of homeless kitties coming through our doors has not slowed down.
While fewer kitties are finding their forever homes, more cats and kittens continue to need safety, medical care, food, love, and a place to land. We are doing everything we can to help them… but we need YOU. ❤️
Meet some of our current kitties who are patiently waiting for their forever families! 🐱🏡
They each have their own personalities, stories, and so much love to give. All they need is someone willing to see them, choose them, and give them the happy ending they deserve.
If you’ve been thinking about adopting, please consider one of these sweet babies. And if you aren’t able to adopt right now, sharing this post could be the thing that puts one of them in front of their person.
👉 Adopt. Share. Tag a friend. Spread the word.
Because every share matters. Every adoption makes room for another animal in need. And every forever home changes a life.
Our kitties are waiting. Please help us get them home.

Update on our boy, Chewy, who was diagnosed recently with FIP.
He is a fighter this one. His white bloods cells were so out of normal range it’s a miracle that he has survived. It has also been tricky because Chewy is mostly feral and a permanent resident at SCKR so administering medicine has been a challenge.
Somehow and some way Lisa was able to get him to a point where he is eating again, gaining some weight back, and we see more energy. But the road to recovery of FIP is long and of course expensive.
Chewy is doing so much better, but he makes it very difficult for RX administration because we can no longer handle him now that he is feeling better. We also cant weigh him weekly for medication adjustments, and we have to try sneaking his meds into food, which gets sometimes gets wasted if he doesnt eat it.
With the cost of meds in excess of $400 for less than a 30 day supply it costly so any donations at this time are appreciated. We just received a positive test that one of our cats also had FIP so we will begin the cycle with her as well.
Check out our stories for more information on FIP, how cats contract FIP, the recovery processes, and more!
Enjoy this sweet videos of all of new kittens that will be looking for forever homes soon. Fill out an application in our bio to meet them now.
