A friend wasn’t told about a cat’s health issue until after they paid. medical records incomplete and they asked for a donation after charging the 350.00 adoption fee. Bio on the cat didn’t disclose the truth and they didn’t say the cat was returned from another family after a week or why. All they said is that you are free to return the cat- who does that to the innocent cat?

If I could give this place a zero I would. I wanted a specific cat. I couldn't go to the meet and greet but was told that I could meet the cat as soon as I could and put my application in. I did that a couple days before the meet and greet. I specifically wanted this cat. If he was a good fit, I hat planned on going with him. I was told by Gloria I could meet him in the fosters home as I could not go to the meet and greet. I was the first one to put my application in on this handsome boy. I am beyond upset that they decided to go with someone else. They should've allowed me to meet him first and tell the other person they were second in line. This was not professional at all. I would not adopt a flea from this place. I will go with Sweet Paws where they do put you on a list and you move up after each viewing and if you're interested in a cat they have you meet the animal in the fosters home first. If someone else is interested they have to wait for you to meet the animal. Never have I ever been so disappointed in an organization.
