Chili's Story

Meet Chili a goofy soul looking for his second chance.<br/><br/>This handsome ~5-year-old boy has been through more than he ever should have, but his story isn&#39;t over yet in fact, we believe the best chapter is still to come.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Originally saved from the euthanasia list in 2020, Chili blossomed in his foster home. He loved neighborhood walks, playing with his doggie foster sister, swimming in the pool, and soaking up affection. He was a charming, happy guy who found a loving home with everything he could have asked for or so we thought.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Chili was returned to us under heartbreaking circumstances. After his adoptive family brought home a new puppy, things changed for him. He seemed stressed and unsure around the new dog and became increasingly uncomfortable with unfamiliar people in his home. This wasn&#39;t the Chili we knew. While we suspect something shifted in his environment, what we know for sure is that Chili needed us again and we didn&#39;t hesitate to say yes.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Despite everything, Chili still has those flashes of his goofy, playful self. When he trusts you, his silly personality shines through reminding us just how special he really is. He just needs time, patience, and a safe space to feel secure again.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Chili is looking for a calm, animal-free home with a securely fenced yard and no young children. He feels most comfortable when he knows what to expect. He is house-trained, fully vetted, and ready for someone to show him that love doesn&#39;t have to hurt.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>We believed in Chili once, and we believe in him now. With the right person, we know his happy ending is still out there. Could you be the one to help this sweet, goofy boy feel safe and loved again?

Compassion Kind's Adoption Policy
Compassion Kind is a 501c3 global humanitarian and animal welfare organization inspiring global citizens to extend their circle of compassion to all kind. We work with partners and volunteers on the ground in Puerto Rico to educate and reduce the suffering of animals due to natural disasters and the ongoing stray problem. A majority of our cats and dogs are from Puerto Rico, but we do take in occasional local owner surrenders as well. Once our animals are taken into our care, we assess their needs and how we can provide the best care and forever home for them. We begin their vetting process while in Puerto Rico and finish after they are flown and placed in foster care in Florida. All animals' vetting is completed by the time of adoption. During our foster process, we continue to analyze their behaviors and needs to help us find the best fit for them. Once we begin taking applications for each animal, we begin our screening process to see how each candidate may fit the specific animals needs. We then choose 2-3 potential candidates, as we don't want to overwhelm the cat or dog, for a meet and greet. Our meet and greets help the potential adopter and pet see if they are a great match! If the meet and greet goes very well, the potential candidate may move into our one week home trial. During the home trial, we do a home visit and check in to make sure that the dog or cat is adjusting well. At the end of the trial, if it is the perfect match, we move into adoption in which their individual adoption fee is paid and we transfer all records and paperwork to the adopter. Our animals are so important to us; we work hard to save them and we owe it to them to find the best life for them. We love to keep in touch with all of our adopters so we can continue to watch our cats and dogs flourish!
