Learn moreA real Spoil A Stray story
Cooper went from stray to spoiled
Cooper was found wandering in Daytona. He had no microchip, and after his photo was shared widely online, no owner came forward. A friend called us to ask whether we could help.
We covered Cooper’s veterinary care and cleanup, then helped find the forever home where he was thoroughly spoiled. He never spent a single day in a shelter.
This is what Spoil A Stray is all about.
Another shelter-free beginning
Vivian was abandoned, but never alone again
Vivian was a tiny black kitten abandoned by herself at a gas station. Within minutes of being found, she was safe in our founder’s arms and headed home. She was a pistol from the beginning, quickly made herself comfortable, and never showed the slightest interest in leaving.
Vivian never entered a rescue or shelter. She is still part of our founder’s family today and, at about ten years old, remains healthy, fat, and thoroughly sassy.
