Proceed with caution. Something feels off with this organization…read more They took issue with the fact that my dog does not sleep in my bedroom, which struck me as extremely strange. Their expectations around how dogs should exist are overly rigid and disconnected from real-world pet ownership. They seem to confuse human preferences with canine behavior and fail to recognize that dogs can be healthy, secure, and well-adjusted without sharing a bedroom with their owner. Rather than focusing on whether a dog is genuinely loved, properly cared for, and well-trained, they appear to search for minor technicalities to disqualify potential adopters. That approach feels more judgmental than responsible. If you're considering adopting, I would recommend taking your time and exploring other organizations that prioritize the overall well-being of the dog over arbitrary rules. Spend your money and energy elsewhere

When we were looking to adopt a greyhound and we're having no luck despite months of searching, Jean went above and beyond to ensure we got the perfect match--we even ended up adopting two litter mates! The pups we adopted are beyond perfect and we couldn't be happier to have two instead of one. AHH truly cares about matching dogs with the ideal owner to ensure the animal has the best possible quality of life. This is critical to ensure the dog is not subjected to a life with someone that is not fully committed or is unable to provide the care that is needed and deserved. We can't thank AHH enough for matching us with two beautiful pups that have become such an integral part of our family. Jean and the entire AHH family are amazing to work with and we are forever grateful for the perfect pups you brought into our lives.

If there was one word to describe this shelter, it would be: Depressing…read more My visit to Pawsitively Cats genuinely was an experience I never want to feel again. I am someone who ADORES cats, the type of person that will take in a stray and rearrange my whole life to care for them until their last breath. My love is so great that it pains me to see these adoptable cats living in such an uninviting space. This shelter is open to the public one day a week for TWO HOURS. I thought it was an error when I saw that schedule online, but it's true. Upon entering, the building is flooded with adoptees, and for a cat lover you'd think that'd be a dream, but instead of excitement I felt a wave of anxiety. This shelter has dim lighting that doesn't allow you to see the cats clearly, and there's no space to really connect with any of them. There didn't seem like any sort of organization to pinpoint which cat was which, and since a lot of cats do look alike, you could only hope the one you bonded with is the same one you're adopting. As I tip-toed around the cats to look at the ones in cages (for medical or behavioral purposes), I could just sense the discomfort in their eyes. Safety measures seemed nonexistent in this place; anyone could easily step on a cat's paw or trip with how many swarm around you. The worst part was when I had a tour of a backroom where countless cats were fighting for a spot to feel the fresh air from a screen window. It was like looking at a can of sardines; I can't imagine any cat could present their best selves under these circumstances. Not only is there an extremely limited window to visit this shelter, but when you do, it makes you feel unhappy being there. You'll feel just as cramped and exposed as these poor babies.This situation could be the incentive for more people to adopt here, but I don't think that's fair on either side. The cats don't have any room to get to know their future owner, nor will they behave calmly when they're fighting for the spotlight. As for visitors, they'll feel more inclined to rescue the cats out of pity more than genuine connection. I wouldn't recommend anyone coming here, but then again, I almost wish you do come to decrease the population inside the shelter. I advise those who run Pawsitively Cats to work on expanding their business; a huge reconstruction of the place so there's more room for cats to live comfortably side-by-side. I am aware that there may be financial concerns involving this, so in that case, I'd suggest relocating these cats somewhere that can better cater to their needs. I'd rather that than have those innocent fur babies trapped in a dark and bleak shelter any longer. I understand that this shelter was built out of love for animals, I truly do, but for the sake of their wellbeing, Pawsitively Cats must improve. If not, people will not be inclined to help out, and the cats will be in no state to become someone's lifelong friend.
