I applied to adopt a pair of cats after losing my young cat prematurely to sickness. Donna, the supposed director, is difficult to get a hold of and not responsive. I was finally able to leave work early and pick the cats up on a Friday. Unfortunately, traffic to port Jefferson is bad so I wouldn’t be able to get there until 540pm. She was unhappy and stated she had another appointment at 6pm. I then offered to send my son, who is 18, and was informed that their minimum age to sign a contract is 23. I reached out Friday evening and again on Saturday to see if there was any availability for the weekend. I was informed that another application came through and the cats I had wanted were no longer unavailable. To add, I was told Friday that the cats I wanted were sick and had an infection which had not been properly resolved so they were on antibiotics for a second course. This information was withheld from me in the prior weeks. Very shady business practices and they are not interested in adopting these cats to loving families. What a shame! I spoil my babies and will go somewhere else.

I have volunteered for the rescue for many years and this is a caring rescue. The people that have adopted cats are happy. Not everyone meets the criteria for adopting a cat and they feel insulted and some even lie. The rescue is just doing what they think is best for the cats they take care of and that is the responsibility of a good rescue. If you are a responsible good pet owner or want to be and have a stable home and life then you will be very happy,

My fiancé and I contacted Donna to see if we could set up a meet and greet with some of the cats we were interested in possibly adopting. Not only was Donna completely rude in her responses to us, but she didn’t even give us the chance to meet any of the cats. She said we couldn’t move forward with the adoption process with ANY of the cats because we don’t have any cats at home (this would be our first pet together). Apparently none of the cats would be okay with being an only cat... We just feel like that should be mentioned somewhere on the cats profiles because we were really looking forward to adopting a cat, but I guess we’ll have to go elsewhere.

We found a cat for adoption on petfinder and then after further investigating realized that the cat was in Petsmart in Port Jefferson. We went to see the cats and they were locked up and we were told that in order to have an interaction with the cats you need to fill out an application. We completed the application and never heard from the rescue in charge. I found the directors contact information and texted her. Donna responded hours later and informed us that we could not proceed with the application process because we had previously had a cat that was allowed outside. I explained that we would keep the cat indoors if that was the best for the cat. She responded that she was sorry I did not understand her reasoning but we were not eligible to adopt. This organization has a terrible reputation but I tried to give them the benefit of doubt.I spoke with our vet and she said that agencies like these are a disgrace. Clearly they are not a true rescue who believes in finding forever homes for their pets in need. Stay Clear of this rescue!!!!

I had a wonderful experience, I adopted Kevin, he was a shy tabby maybe 9 months old or so, They take really good care of the kittens and cats and rescue so many from hoarding situations, or dangerous places, Such nice people who volunteer their all for the rescue of cats in need :)
