I have been volunteering at Sante Dor for about a year, and adopted my girl Starlene, formerly known as Suna, in November. First, on volunteering: It’s an awesome rescue where the cats live good lives, even the ones who go unadopted year after year have a good family right at the rescue. It is easy to accommodate volunteering as you sign up for shifts whenever you want - there is no minimum commitment so it works well if you have a busy schedule, although there are also those who choose to do regular times. There is a shift leader who will direct you through feeding, cleaning etc. On adopting: I met Suna while I was volunteering, she had been fostered since she was a kitten by Sante Dor and is two now. She had a congenital liver issue that they had taken her to multiple vets to diagnose and come up with a treatment plan. They had thorough paperwork of all of her past medical work and gave me the truth about what this might mean for her future. The adoption process has several steps to ensure a good match and education of the pet parent to be. You won’t bring a cat home the same day but you will bring them home for a lifetime. They were flexible when I needed to delay bringing her home to treat my resident cat’s sickness and sent me home with some food, litter and medicine to get her started. Heather, Morgan, and everyone at the rescue are amazing people who work really hard to serve these cats and the community!

I recently adopted a furry friend from this amazing pet adoption center, and I couldn't be happier! The service provided was outstanding - the staff was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about finding the perfect match. The quality of care for the animals is top-notch; my new pet was well-groomed, healthy, and had a great temperament. The value is unbeatable; the adoption fee included spaying/neutering, vaccinations, and microchipping. I can't recommend this place enough!

What an amazing kitty sanctuary and rescue support establishment! Leslie responded to a post asking for help. I brought the 4 kittens to the sanctuary for a look over and worm flea treatment. They are kind gentle and caring. I highly recommend giving support, volunteering and making a donation to there great cause

I’ve been a weekly volunteer at Sante D’Or for over 1.5 years, also fostering several pairs of kittens, helping with TNR, and even adopting my own two boys here. This is an incredible organization run by a group of badass women. The care given to all their rescues and the difference they’re making in their TNR program to help strays in the community is phenomenal. I couldn’t recommend a better place to look for your forever furbaby or to volunteer than here. Experiencing the inside of rescue truly gives you a different perspective. You realize how understaffed and underfunded these organizations are, and yet they are still doing incredible things. Knowing this makes me feel sad reading some of these recent ‘bad’ reviews. In anyone’s journey of trying to make a difference in your community, the best thing is to be a solution to a problem instead of the problem. Know the #1 priority to any rescue is giving the best quality of life to the current animals in their care, which means they can’t always save/rescue/help the thousands of others that come to the door (as much as they want to). So it’s important to educate and empower yourself in those situations instead of putting more of a burden on the rescue.

A wonderfully great foundation that is a no kill animal adoption center. All the staff was so helpful and very nice people.

So much love and care is given to these cats and kitties needing homes. Such dedication. So friendly and really informative and helpful. There are always bunches of furballs running around that you can interact with (at least you could b4 Covid) We have adopted two cats here and they are a perfect fit!
