PREFERS A HOME WITHOUT
Cats, other dogs
Resilient, loyal, and gorgeous – it’s triple threat Trinity here! And I am ready to impress you with my heart-of-gold spunk!
Let’s start with my ideal digs – none of that noisy, rambunctious stuff for me. I’m all about that laid-back adult-only vibe, free from the hustle and bustle. Let’s just bask in some peace and tranquility; I relish in some cozy cuddles but feel free to do your own thing. I’m perfectly content entertaining myself with my toys or a quick snooze.
When it comes to strangers, I don’t exactly roll out the welcome mat. It takes time for me to warm up and trust new friends, but once I do, it’s a friendship for life! To join my pack is the real deal. Just know that we will stick together through thick and thin, creating all the best memories and sharing snuggles like there’s no tomorrow!
As happy as I am to indulge in an afternoon laze, there’s nothing quite like getting my heart pumping and feeling the wind in my fur! Ever seen a powerhouse like me tear through a room, giddy with the zoomies? It’s a sight to behold, let me tell you! And adventures? Count me in! Whether it’s a rugged hike or a road trip for a pup cup, I’m game for it!
Wait, did someone say treats? I’ve got a bit of a weakness when it comes to food. Show me a tasty snack, and I’ll show you what a pup with determination and a hunger that just won’t quit! And hey, who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? I’m living proof that you can teach this ol’ girl a thing or two!
Well, what do you say? Ready to join the pack of a tough, yet totally silly, and downright lovable pup like me? Check out the MAS website to fill out your adoption application and let’s get this VIP party started!

Roland is an 11 week old pile of cuddles. He loves playing with the big dogs in his foster home and but also loves being held like a baby. (Picture yourself with an approximately 60 pound lap dog eventually. It’s amazing. We know.) He is a DREAM in his crate and doing great with his potty training. And he’s obviously stunningly handsome. Roland is current on his vaccines and will be neutered and microchipped before he heads to his forever home. His adoption fee is $300 and you can apply online.

GOOD IN A HOME WITH
Other cats, children
Meet Buddy, an outgoing and affectionate kitten who thrives on human companionship. If you’re looking for a little shadow to follow you around, Buddy is your guy! He absolutely loves to be held and will happily curl up on your lap for hours, purring contentedly while soaking up all the love and attention he can get. Buddy is not just a cuddle bug—he’s also full of playful energy. He enjoys chasing after toys, especially when his brothers (Light and Fire) join in the fun. Whether it’s a feather toy, a crinkly ball, or a playful game of tag, Buddy is always in the middle of the action, having the time of his life. With his friendly and playful nature, Buddy would thrive in a home with other playful cats or a family ready to give him lots of love and playtime. He’s a sweet, social kitten who will bring endless joy to any household!
For the safety of our kittens and for children, we do not adopt kittens under six months old to a home with children under the age of 6.
We believe that kittens are happiest when they have a feline friend so Buddy will need to be adopted with another kitten here (one of his brothers would be great) or go to a home with an existing, playful cat.
Buddy has been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. He has an approximate birthdate of May, 2024 His adoption fee is $120.
If you are interested in any of the cats at Second Chance Cats of West Michigan, go to sccatswm.org/adopt to fill out an application, or stop in during open hours on Fridays from 11-2 or Saturdays and Sundays from 11-4.
