Helena's Story

Meet Helena, a lovely black panther who came to Second Chance from a hoarding situation with 8 other kittens, some of whom were her siblings. Helena was well cared for in her home but after the number of cats swelled to 25, the owner who was in failing health was no longer able to care for them. <br/><br/>Helena is a friendly kitty, one of the first kitties to greet you in the room. Helena is simply elegant, no frills, no fuss but a sweet, lovely kitty. She loves pets, and will lay close to you and roll all around expressing her joy. Helena enjoys play, especially with the wand toy and don't forget about the catnip!! <br/><br/>Helena is ready for a home of her own. Spend a few minutes petting or playing with her and you'll experience why we think she is so special. Helena would do great with a single adopter, a couple, or a family with older respectful kids. Her last remaining sibling is Mamba, and while they are not bonded, they would certainly make a great pair of kitties together. Helena also gets along great with other friendly cats so could easily be a part of a multi cat household.<br/><br/>Helena means "shining light". Our Helena is just that and has a shiny, beautiful coat as well. Helena isn't fussy, nor high maintenance. She is a friendly, warm, happy kitty looking to be loved, just waiting for that special someone to notice how wonderful she is! <br/><br/>Helena has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $95. Helena has an approximate birthdate of 06-01-24.<br/><br/>If you are interested in Helena or 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.<br/><br/>Please note - we can only adopt to those who live within a one hour drive of Grand Rapids.
