Can you give us a 2nd Chance at life?
2nd Chance Cat Rescue is a not‑for‑profit organisation dedicated to the re‑homing of abandoned, stray and surrendered kittens and cats in need of a loving home.
2nd Chance Cat Rescue is a registered Australian Charity and not‑for‑profit organisation run solely by volunteers in the south‑eastern and eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Started in July 2011 with the purpose of re‑homing de‑sexed, vaccinated and micro‑chipped cats and kittens to good homes. So far we have re-homed around 3000 cats and kittens.
