I WISH people will UNDERSTAND that bein Nice to others is needed in this Cruel world, Specially is you are working in a facility which Main Goal is to find suitable places and families for Animals. Please Remember if you are having a Bad day that we ALL have do not take the misery and bad temper in people that comes there looking to adopt Pets. If You ARE NOT able to smile and benice you should let someone else do the magic of touching people hearts so MORE Animals can benfits and get family of their Own. EVERY LIVINg Creature deserve love, food and shelter so please people be nice that Work its done in this place is for Needed Animals.

Facility is very run down and needs some TLC. The staff seem loving to the animals. The adult cat room was very large and the cats seemed healthy and friendly. The kitten room was a mess, way too many in a small 5x5 room. Some were sick and very under weight. I did not have to wait the 24hrs to adopt even though paperwork said that was policy. Long story short…..Now I have a very sick kitten that seemed to be healthy and active at the time. Tried calling to get more information about health and diet while at the facility and no one answers or returns phone calls. I took her to the emergency vet to get her the care that she needs and hoping that she will make it. Someone needs to step up and help these animals like they should be. Update: She did not make it. Such a Sad thing

Look, this is a no-kill shelter, not a pet store, and they run on donations. They're doing the best they can on a shoe-string budget with volunteer staff. Could the place use some TLC? Absolutely. It's easy be negative. Not so easy to help: volunteer some time, make small donation... We adopted a sweet little cat from here last month and she's absolutely thriving with us, she's the love of our lives. She was a hard-to-adopt kitty because of things that happened with her previous owner (I won't go into that). Animal Control would have euthanized her. She's beautiful inside and out, and we're glad she ended up here instead. We were very interested in her but we also thought: if we go elsewhere, who will help these animals and this staff? If you want a high-end pet, look for a breeder. But if

I adopted a beautiful dog named Bella. The staff was very good to me, and helpful. She is learning how to take commands. Then she will learn tricks.

Horrible experience, we had gotten a little black kitten a month ago from this place and the lady said she was 8 weeks old and was ready to go. She was really tiny but was told she was like the runt. Her eyes started swelling and oozing so We got her into the vet that same week and the vet said she was not 8 weeks she was only 4 about to be 5 weeks and was not suppose to be away from the mother and she had herpes and could not be around any other animals and could not be up against us and we had to wear gloves while touching her. We have spent hundreds of dollars so far in this past month trying to get her well but the medications and everything does not seem to be helping. It’s very sad and no animal should have to go through this. I can’t imagine what the other animals at this place have
