Meet Snickers…

This absolutely lovely young lady has quite the story to tell. Snickers started her life with a person that didn’t have the humanity to care for or love anything, let alone a precious jewel of a little kitten.

At 6 months of age, Snickers was carrying a batch of kittens. Her owner decided that a bullet was the solution to this problem which he fired into her back leaving her seriously injured. She was able to crawl just enough out of reach to make it to the highway where she was struck and dragged by a car leaving her struggling for life.

This ordeal has not altered Snickers’ sweet, gentle personality and love for people. Snickers was taken to a vet service that did a great job getting this very deserving, loving pet back to health and into the care of Another Chance Animal Rescue where she hopes to find a new loving family that will be sensitive to her painful, difficult start in the world.

Snickers is current on all necessary vaccinations and spayed. She does still have a bullet in her lower back, which gives her a bit of a limp. Snickers will do best with a family that can provide her with an indoor-only lifestyle where she can be safe and healthy. She will do well with older children, adults, nonaggressive house cats and nonaggressive dogs.

Snickers is looking for a single person or family to provide a loving, safe environment. The adoption center is located at 251 Country Club Road (Route 4) Sanford.

In addition to Snickers, ACAR has several newly arrived teenage kittens, a small number of young adult cats and a very limited number of older adult cats also looking to for a loving family.
