Nine Lives and Second Chances Rescue

As of right now we are not taking in any animals but are doing fundraising to help spay/neuter cats. If you are in need of resources to get a cat or multiple cats (or kittens!) fixed, please contact us ASAP!

We have changed our name! We have gone from BRD Dog Rescue to Nine Lives and Second Chances Rescue because we now are working with kitties too! I heard a woman say once "Since cats get nine lives then dogs should get second chances" and this is where our name comes from.

Rescue FAQs

We work all over Michigan but mostly stay around Grand Rapids and the surrounding area.

Additional adoption info

When we do have animals to adopt out we do charge a small fee and require an interview (phone or in person) and possible contract (contract will be indicated in pets profile.) They will be sterilized before being adopted out!
