Featured Critter

California Kingsnake

This California Kingsnake is available for adoption. Isn't he handsome? With proper care, he could live to be over twenty years old! Please note, you must be an adult (or 16 with parental supervision and consent) and have previous experience with reptiles in order to be considered as a potential adopter. Reptiles have many care requirements, so our reptile adoption policies are a bit more strict. To see other critters in need of homes, click the "Adoptable Critters" button above.

Educational Programs

Michelle and Amy (our President and Vice President) present educational programs on behalf of A Critter's Chance throughout the city to public and private organizations. Michelle has obtained the necessary permits to do these programs and to keep the non-releasable wildlife used in the programs. Amy works under her permit, so that is why one of the two must do the program. The programs focus on information about the animals, ways to help wildlife, and the proper way to care for exotic animals. If you are interested in having us do a program for your organization, please contact Michelle by using the information on our contact page.

Environmental Education Day

Twice a year for the last eight years, Michelle and Amy have gone to Southeastway Park to educate children about the environment. An average of over 300 children attend! This program has been very successful in helping children learn how to care for and respect their environment.

Master Gardener's Club Program

These pictures are from a program Michelle, Amy, and fellow rehabber Linda presented at a Master Gardener's Club event in Rushville. If you look closely at Michelle's shirt, you'll see a critter!
