    Greater Hillsdale Humane Society - Clementine - Formerly Calida

    Greater Hillsdale Humane Society

    My parents list their cat and I was contacted about a cat that was found. Unfortunately the cat was…read morenot declawed or chipped. Took the cat to the Hillsdale Animal Shelter (no kill) and they were willing to take him in despite being full. They were Very nice and polite!! Please support the great caring work they do!!

    We had been searching for another aussie when we spotted Clementine (formerly Calida) on Petfinder…read more She was heartworm positive and it said she had been found on the side of the road and was an absolute mess. We love a good mess at our house, so we knew we had to have her. Renee (the director of the Hillsdale Humane Society) was great. They do not answer their phones (my guess is staffing and volunteers are not plentiful), but when they do pick up, they are more than willing to share all the information they have. Renee told me all about Clem, her sweet personality and even offered to bring her with on Saturday to their adoption event so we could meet her. We agreed. We drove to Hillsdale on Saturday and had our other aussie, Wilhelmina, meet Clementine and we spoke to Renee a little more. Clementine still had one more heartworm treatment on the following Tuesday, so we arranged to pick Clem up on Wednesday afternoon. The application to adopt was a simple two page form, the fee is a straight forward $150 and is completely refundable for 14 days if anything goes wrong. Renee said on the rare chance dogs do get into their new homes and people find personalities don't mesh well, she would rather have people bring the animal back to Hillsdale for a full refund. We left confident that Renee would take good care of Clem until Wednesday and headed back home. On Wednesday we drove back down to Osseo and Clementine was ready to go. The whole process was unbelievably easy and the humane society building itself (we only went into the lobby) was very small, but there was a lovely fenced in outdoor yard and it was very clean. We would adopt from Hillsdale again without hesitation. **We did have Clementine checked out by our own vet on Friday and did discover that she has some fairly serious (and expensive) medical problems that need to be addressed before she can live a normal healthy life. As Clem is a part of our family, we are going to get her the treatment she needs so she can live a healthy and happy life. She is undergoing treatment for serious ear infections and skin infections and then once her heartworm treatment is over she will have surgery. We know she saw a vet multiple times while she was at the humane society and we fully believe her medical issues were overlooked by either an inexperienced or lazy veterinarian. The people at Hillsdale Humane Society are not veterinarians, they are kind people who are doing their very best to help as many animals as possible, so Clem's ignorned medical problems are the fault of the vet who treated her in Hillsdale.**

    My colleague reached out to me to ask how he can safely secure and send the family of kittens to a…read moresafer place because his 2 Huskies found them under the porch. It was -1 degrees the other day, so frantically i found rescue groups in Michigan and I started calling to advocate for them. The lady that answered the phone was nice and resourceful. He would need to send the inquiry via online and get them to Adopt-a-Pet, but that never happened because he said the mom moved them the next day. I'm a bit upset because it's evident that the mom should be fixed, but it could be that no one in his neighborhood is aware of the practice. Even though this place wasn't able to help, but they were very helpful and sincere. I hope that the little family is safe from bad people, wildlife, cars, and the rigid weather. While I have 2 cat condos and 2 heated beds for the stray cats that I help feed (all fixed), I can't help but think about the others who aren't so lucky.

    First, let me be clear and say that my rating is not based on the provided animal care. It is…read morewithout doubt that I see them as all animal lovers with attention to wellness and safety. But that is the problem. They seem far more interested in the wellness of the pet than they do the communication with the adopter. Extremely unprofessional, zero people skills. It felt more like I was taking their personal pet from them and they begrudgingly accepted it. Again, I love animals, I love that they love animals, but I think they are extremely off-putting, socially. It's all about "No" at Adopt-A-Pet. Every communication feels unapologetically skeptical and disappointing from the staff. They don't hold animals. They don't hold animals. They will not hold your animal. They don't hold animals. I'm telling you this because they will not hold your animal. Get ready to be met with that information in every correspondence. They are simply not interested in being amicable, helpful, cooperative, engaging, informative, or willing to work with you or compromise on anything. So, if you are a perfect candidate, you don't have questions, and you don't mind dealing with socially inept people, go check it out. They have like, 5 animals there in total? Just remember, by adopting one of their pets, you might be stealing one of their only friends.
