The Last Chance Sanctuary

Meet Smokey. This young fella was dumped in a busy campsite, all alone. Luckily my animal loving friend was camping there...and he hopped right into her RV! He is the sweetest guy, loves lounging upside down to be pet, and gets along great with dogs. (Don't know about other cats yet...but probably!)

He will be ready to be adopted this weekend! Message me if you are interested!

Giving Tuesday: A Heartfelt Request for Riley’s Rescue of Brevard

This Giving Tuesday, we’re lifting up not only the animals who depend on Riley’s Rescue of Brevard, but the woman whose heart built it.

Marcia, our founder, has spent her life saving the forgotten and broken. Every wagging tail and second chance exists because of her love.

But now, Marcia is fighting cancer. The photo shows her surrounded by some of her many rescues… yet in reality, she’s away receiving treatment.

And on top of this battle, she recently lost her job of 27 years.

Even so, her biggest worry is still the same:
“Who will take care of the animals at Riley’s Rescue of Brevard?”

Every donation big or small goes directly to the animals she loves.
Food, medical care, medicine, supplies, your generosity keeps them safe and cared for.

If Marcia or any animal from Riley’s Rescue of Brevard has touched your heart, please consider donating this Giving Tuesday. Help us care for these precious lives while she fights for hers.

On behalf of Riley’s Rescue of Brevard, thank you. 💜

Teddy is in need of a forever home. He was an injured stray who was taken in and all fixed up. With all the rescues full to the max, no one has room for him. So he is at risk of being put back outside where he was found. He is about 3 years old.

If you are interested, please message me and I will put you in touch with the person who is temporarily holding onto him.

As he was a stray, his behavior around dogs and children is unknown, but he seems to get along with other cats. He enjoys petting and purrs! I have not met him yet...

Sharing for HOPE for Brevard

We are expecting a large number (somewhere between 70-100) cats coming from North Carolina early next week.

We are going to send donations to North Carolina as well - so if you would like to drop off dry cat food , wet food , water etc. please drop off in donation bins outside the adoption center or drop off during adoption hours. Small plastic carriers are also needed for transport.

1465 Cypress Avenue Melbourne

We are working with someone who is going to transport the cats from North Carolina to Florida and are dropping off supplies Saturday night.

There is little to no service or power in the region the cats are coming from so we do not have details at this time on exactly how many / ages. We will post an update when they arrive.

We know that this is an astronomical undertaking - and it will be a rough couple of weeks , but we will not turn any cats away.

We are getting ready.

We will also need volunteers to help with cleaning shifts. If interested in volunteering please email us at
