Beautiful haven for rescued cats that are available for adoption…read moreFully vetted and ready for a happy home to be loved

Beautiful cats and nice women, but I think they want to keep the kitties lol. It's more a place to…read morelook at sleeping cats. VERY gate-keepery. Right off the bat, you must remove your shoes, which I can understand, I guess. I felt shamed for having only a one-bedroom and renting. Their faces were shocked! You can't take home a cat the first day, as they do extensive background checks which can take awhile. Every cat I asked about, was unavailable. I even asked who most needed a home/ who has been here the longest and she said "it's not really a matter of them NEEDING a home" and trailed off ;) I felt like I wasn't good enough to adopt a cat from them! They made me cry I was off my hrt, though and I'm sensitive. I could go on, but I'll stop. They do love cats! Queen Kitty is less fancy, the people more normal, has more cats, a quicker and easier process while still making sure you're safe for the cat -- and $100 less expensive with all the shots and neutered. They were happy to see us and showed us many cats. They actually wanted people to adopt them! The boy I adopted had been found in a speedway parking lot in WD and did need a home. Very happy and my kitty slept with me in bed from day one! Meant to be:) I went ahead and stopped donating money and gifts to WW, but still have recurring cash donations to several cat charities, and attend to a few of their Amazon wishlists. These cats are very happy where they are! They don't need anyone to adopt them.

In mid-December, my husband found an English bulldog named Olive on the Petfinder website. On…read moreFoster Farm's website, I filled out an application to adopt Olive. The application asked questions about our employment, housing, any fences, how we would give the dog exercise and other necessary things, our current pets and their veterinarian records, any experience that we have with this dog breed, if we have ever given up any past pet, etcetera. I spent time to write many thoughtful paragraphs of text. Two days later, the Foster Farm contacted me and said that they wanted me to adopt Olive, pending my answer about an invisible fence (which they do NOT allow). (I read other Yelpers' 1-star reviews about filling out applications and never hearing back. The Foster Farm is run by volunteers who have jobs or are in school, so they are low on time, but they should get back to you.) On that same day, they approved my application for Olive, and they scheduled my husband's and my first meet-and-greet/adoption with Olive for a few days later at our request to fit our schedule. In the meantime, the Foster Farm answered our questions via email about what size of collar and carrier to buy, what type of food to buy, etc., so we could shop in advance. They also emailed me photos of Olive. The adoption fee was $325, which was supposed to include vaccinations (DAPP and rabies), a microchip, deworming, and a future spay. Payment options were PayPal, Venmo, or a check. On December 22, a Foster Farm employee drove out to our house with Olive. She wore a face mask as a COVID-19 precaution. She allowed us to spend time with Olive on our couch, and she spent time to answer our questions before she left. I am deducting one star from my review, because the Foster Farm gave us *NO MEDICAL RECORDS.* I asked for medical records multiple times, particularly for the vaccines, and they said that they did not have them. The Foster Farm had told me that they would pay for a clinic to do Olive's rabies vaccine, which was included in the adoption fee, but the clinic for some reason did not do the rabies vaccine. With ZERO medical records for Olive other than for the spaying, I paid my veterinarian to do ALL vaccinations from scratch. The clinic did scan a microchip and give me the number at my request. In addition, the Foster Farm had told me that they had dewormed Olive, but when I took Olive to my veterinarian for a fecal test, the test came back positive for intestinal parasites, and I paid my vet to deworm Olive. Maybe the Foster Farm had dewormed the dog, but she contracted parasites again from other dogs in different foster homes or when she was adopted by another family? Olive is a very nervous dog who needs to be housetrained, but she has a very sweet personality, and she gets along with our cats (yay!). I think that the Foster Farm placed her into the right home, and their fee of $325 for a bulldog was very reasonable. For those reasons, I will award 4 stars. But I do recommend that the Foster Farm pass along vaccination records.

Just adopted a dog from the Foster Farm this past week, and they are a wonderful organization. They…read morereally read our application and took into account what type of dog we were looking to adopt. The process was simple and our pup's foster mom was very personable, understanding, and professional. We could not be happier with our new family member, Rex!

The parking lot outside is free. In previous years, I took four of my cats to the veterinarians here. The veterinarians spoke very politely and thoroughly to me, and they performed accurate medical examinations and treatments for my cats. Please note that the veterinarians focus mostly on preventative care, such as wellness exams, vaccinations, non-emergency illnesses and injuries, etcetera. During my previous visits, the prices for services were very reasonable. During my most recent visit, I looked at the cats and dogs who were available for adoption. All of the employees promptly and kindly helped me to learn about the pets' personalities and health issues. They gave me a form to fill out, and then they arranged for me to meet a dog in a meeting room. I thought that the animals' cages were clean. Adoption fees were reasonable and varied based on the type and age of animal. This shelter also offers training classes for dogs. The classes are available in beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels, and the trainers use positive reinforcement.
