Rosie's Story

Rosie is about 6 years old and one of the sweetest, most resilient girls you will ever meet. She has overcome so much and is finally ready for the calm, loving life she deserves.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>She was rescued in January 2024 during a spay and neuter clinic in the Bahamas. After her surgery, she was supposed to be returned to the area she came from, but we were told she was at risk of being poisoned if she went back. We could not let that happen. Instead, we flew her to Florida and into a safe foster home. That decision changed her entire future.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Before rescue, Rosie was likely used repeatedly for breeding. In 2024, she went through extensive medical care with us and handled every step with quiet strength. She tested positive for TVT after her rescue and completed treatment in the spring of 2024. By summer 2024, she was officially cancer free. Later in 2024, she had a hernia removed from her backside. She also tested positive for heartworm and completed treatment in November and December 2024. She has since tested negative and is heartworm free.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Last year she was also diagnosed with early kidney disease. She manages beautifully on a renal diet and does not require any medications at this time. She also has some arthritis in her back legs, which is well managed with Librela injections. With this support, she remains comfortable, happy, and mobile.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>After everything she has endured, Rosie is now a healthy, stable, easygoing girl. She is affectionate, gentle, and so ready to be someone's steady companion. She has been waiting for her forever home since January 2024, and she truly deserves a soft place to land.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Rosie is not defined by her past. She is defined by her resilience, her sweetness, and her ability to love despite it all. Now she just needs someone to love her back for the rest of her life.

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!
