I adopted my adult cat a month ago and I couldn’t be happier! I reached out to the Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society interested in adopting a friendly, older cat, and they made an appointment for me within a week. Upon arrival the workers introduced me to all of the cats and then I adopted the one I liked! The whole experience was streamlined and simple. My cat was $175 and was microchipped, neutered, and had all of his vaccines. I spent $45 on a package the shelter had that contained food, litter, starter toys, treats, food dishes, and nail clippers, which was a huge help. I also spent an additional $10 on an extremely sturdy and quality cat carrier to take him home in. I am super happy with this experience and would absolutely buy a cat from here again!

We adopted our cat Marty from MRFRS two weeks ago and we couldn't be happier with our decision! He is such a sweetheart! The shelter responded to my inquiry fast and was able to get a same day appointment. The two women working that day were friendly, helpful, and were available to answer any questions we had. It was a smooth adoption process!

I got my boy Butter Finger aka Mr. B from this rescue and the women who worked here were so sweet and took great care of all the cats. The adoption process was quick and easy, I took Mr. B home with me that day. Butter Finger is a shy cat and the woman who helped me out at the shelter gave me all kinds of tips and advice to help him acclimate to my home and with my big dopey puppy. He's coming around slowly but surely, getting closer to us and the puppy and for a shy cat he likes to stay up all night and hang from my pictures 🤣🤣. He's such a character I love him so much, he will fit in just right in our home once he's fully adjusted. Thanks to the lovely volunteers keep doing your excellent work.

This business does not care about reuniting pets with their rightful owners. They only care that you spay/ neuter, chip, and keep the cat indoors. I recently lost my cat and was hopeful to have seen that he had popped up at a rescue. I contacted the business and to say that I'm heartbroken is nice. By law, because he was in their care for more than so many days he is their property. I was willing to go through the adoption process and pay the fee to be reunited with my cat. My adoption application was denied because I choose to let my cats be indoor/outdoor and Axel is the only cat of mine that wasn't neutered. Ultimately, I just wanted to see Axel and make sure he was okay. Apparently, this is a common occurrence as Autumn (the manager) wouldn't allow me to visit as she has had "bad experiences in the past." This makes me wonder how many other people's cats have been wrongfully taken and denied reunification.

Reuniting, pets with their original owners is not important to them! They use the law to their own advantage. People are trapping cats and bringing them to their facility. Pet owners must notify the police station as soon as they know their pet is missing! On the seventh day, the animal becomes ownership of the Rescue! They only Return your animal under one condition that it is chipped. And that is only because they are forced by law! These animals need homes, but you might be taking home an animal that belongs to somebody else. These cats want to be reunited with their loved ones if Possible!!! Everyone should be aware of this Fact! 😿😓😥

They truly care about the cats, and want to make sure that the cat you are interested in. I got an older cat, and he is adjusting to his new place! Just a love...
