**************************************************************
Ivy has had a very rough start to life. Born on the streets, she became seriously ill with Giardia at a young age. Thankfully, a kind gentleman rescued her and rushed her to an emergency vet, where she received intensive care over an entire weekend, including fluids through a drip.
When Ivy arrived at the rescue, she was nothing more than a tiny skeleton — weak and exhausted. With time, care, and lots of love, she has slowly regained her strength and was finally able to be reunited with her siblings.
Unfortunately, Ivy and her siblings are still living in a cage, as we have not yet been able to introduce them into a larger kitten group or find a foster carer for her.
Despite everything she has been through, Ivy is a sweet little girl who would truly flourish in a loving home. She deserves a family where she can finally feel safe, secure, and cherished.

Adoption details
We ask that you complete an Adoption Questionnaire before we make arrangements for you to meet a cat or kitten. This is to ensure that we find the best possible match for you and the cats/kittens in our care.
PROCEDURE
1. Complete the online application by following http://www.2ndchancecatrescue.com.au/adopting/adoption-form
2. If your application is successful, we will contact you to arrange a meet and greet.
Please note that the adoption fee as stated on the cat's profile is required on the day of adoption and we accept cash bank transfer or Pay ID.
PLEASE BE PATIENT
2nd Chance Cat Rescue is a home-based rescue group and most of our volunteers are working full-time so we hope that you understand that it may take 1-2 days to get back to you.
