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.

Recommended Vets

The following is a list of the vets we use to treat rescue animals, as well as our own. We speak with a lot of people who do not realize exotic pets need vet care too. There are vets who specialize in exotic pets, and it is important to have one available if your pet becomes ill. The following have all supported A Critter's Chance by discounting their services and providing excellent care. Please consider calling on one of them for your pet!

Jason Herrmann, DVM of Mobile Veterinary Care is the vet who saved Esther and her kids! We were amazed they all survived the birth! Without Dr. Herrmann's help, they may not have. He's a real hero to us here at A Critter's Chance. He is currently in the process of moving and can be reached at 317-313-8760. On March 1st, his address will be 2024 1/2 E Cherry St, Noblesville, IN 46060.




Rescue Groups

While A Critter's Chance does not accept surrendered dogs or cats, we do work with rescues in order to try to help these animals as well. Below is a listing of rescues we would recommend.

Northern Lights Sled Dog Rescue rescues Siberian Huskies, Alaskan Malamutes, and mixes of these breeds. Their site has some good information about the breeds, as well as training information for owners who may be having trouble. They also have many beautiful dogs waiting for adoption, so if you or someone you know is looking to adopt, please check out their site!






Southside Animal Shelter has saved many dogs and cats over the years. We have referred people to them and have always heard good things. They spay/neuter and vaccinate all animals, and their adoption rates are very affordable. If you are searching for a wonderful dog or cat, please consider adopting from Southside!
