My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hawkeye’s Story

Hawkeye came from the streets — a calm, older gentleman who kept to himself. His life changed when someone cruelly shot him with a dart. He was rescued, treated, given surgery, and he survived with incredible strength and resilience. His story spread quickly, touching the hearts of many.

After healing, Hawkeye has shown that despite everything, he is still a gentle soul who just wants safety and peace.

Personality:
• Very quiet, calm, and low-maintenance
• Shy at first and needs time to warm up
• Loves having a cozy spot to himself
• Prefers a peaceful environment
• Enjoys observing the home from a comfortable distance
• Once he trusts you, he softens and relaxes
• A companion who brings calm energy rather than constant attention

Ideal Home:
Hawkeye will thrive in a home that is:
• Quiet and gentle
• Patient and understanding of shy cats
• Willing to give him time to adjust
• Looking for a calm, easy companion
• Ready to let him enjoy his golden years in peace

Why He’s Special:
Hawkeye isn’t just any cat — he’s a survivor.
He’s lived through trauma, healed physically, and is now ready to heal emotionally in a loving home. He is the type of cat who makes you feel honored when he begins to trust you.

🎄 All he wants for Christmas is a home of his own — a safe place where he can spend the rest of his life warm, relaxed, and loved.

Adoption fee for this cat includes FVRCP vaccine, FIV/FELV testing, spay/neuter surgery, deworming, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate) wellness vet visit, one month of pet insurance and microchip. All animals are examined by a veterinarian.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We have a quick but thorough adoption process. We ask you to fill out an application and we will touch base with you by phone. If we feel you are a good fit for the animal you would like to adopt based upon your application, we will want to do a home visit and have you meet the pet. If everything checks out, we will ask that you sign an adoption contract and pay a donation - usually $75 for cats and $150 for dogs. This includes all vetting, spay/neuter, vaccines, etc.

Our contract allows us to come visit you and your new family member after the adoption to make sure everything is going well and your new pet is happy & healthy.

Go meet their pets

We meet potential adopters by appointment only, typically in the foster's or potential adopter's home. Dogs can be arranged to be seen at a local park or a similar location.

More about this rescue

Good Karma Pet Rescue is a small network of foster homes in South Florida dedicated to providing dogs and cats in need with the love and help they need and deserve.

GK was started in 2011 by Stacey Chen, who decided that she could best provide for her foster animals by starting a rescue that aims for best care rather than high volume. We intend to stay as small as we need to be to ensure that every one of our foster animals is treated with the same care and respect we show our own furry family.

GK is based in Fort Lauderdale and is supported by wonderful, dedicated foster parents throughout the South Florida area. If you are interested in helping to save lives through volunteering, fostering, or adopting, please get in touch with us!
