Friend for life was great in answering all my questions about the kittens I adopted - Luke and Leia! They worked well to accommodate me in adopting the kittens as well. They were really thorough in the adoption process and gave me lots of time with all the kittens available before I decided to adopt. Gail (the kittens foster mom) is amazing!! And Erika at the rescue was very helpful in answering any of my questions even after I adopted them.
Great staff! They are really interested in making a good match between potential owner and cat/dog! They provide a very large room so you can really see what the dog is like before adopting. Good interaction is key to adoption of any cat or dog.
I can’t put it into words how amazing this team is and what they have done for so many animals. I came across an abandoned kitten that I tried so hard to find a shelter/rescue for that I knew she would be safe at. This organization was initially at full capacity at the time I reached out, but they followed up with me immediately once a spot opened up. Once I got the word they were able to take in the abandoned kitten right away and care for her. The team here were so friendly and you can tell how much it means to them to care for these animals. Their team kept me in the loop of the kittens experience with them and also when they were lucky adopted by a loving family. It can be extremely stressful looking for a safe place for stray or abandoned animals, but this organization walked me through the process and worked with me to help save this kitten. Please work with this organization, consider them if you are looking to adopt, and if you are able to donate anything please do. This experience helped me understand more of how expensive it can be to care for not just one animal but multiple. Anything at all can go such a long way to help this organization to continue what they do. Amazing people and I highly recommend working with them.
We just adopted Maisy today after losing our previous rescue last month. These people are lovely - so caring and friendly. And the facility is also great - it’s clean and the dogs are very well cared for. Special thanks to volunteer Laura!
I want to say thank you tremendously to Friends For Life and their volunteers. My friend and I had found a stray dog a few days back and we were in no way to care for him properly. We originally tried to surrender him to Friend For Life but they weren't open and their supervisor wasn't there. Meanwhile, the volunteers there were extremely helpful and brought us and the dog some water and food, as well as mats and wet towels to cool the puppy down. They were caring and considerate and overall amazing. The puppy we found has since found a perfect home and is in perfect health. He's getting all kinds of tests done and has his own bed and toys and tons of treats. He's happy and we're happy for him and that there are outstanding, kind animal lovers out there. Thank you Friends For Life
Very nice Animal rescue facility. Very clean,they have you fill out an interest survey first, will then make every attempt to place a suitable animal to your environment.
