Have been there several times to pass out treats and once to make an adoption. Great people…read more Animals are well cared for!!

As I looked at the please send us a gift mailer yesterday I thought how I never left a review for…read morethem and I was shocked to see all the bad reviews but I do understand where they are coming from so I'm going to tell my experience so you have a better idea of the one star reviews. The only reason I keep sending them donations about every three months since I got my little girl is that they are a no kill shelter because I cant rescue all of them so I hope they are feed and cared for until the day they get a home like my buddy. Please people GIVE THEM A CHANCE because there are animals who need permanent homes even with all the bad reviews. I had a shelter cat for about 14 years and she developed kidney disease so her days were numbered, the vet said you will know when her quality of life is no longer and she would have to be put to sleep. She finally stopped eating completely and her favorite toy was dead to her, that was the day I had to make the hardest decision of my life to end her life. Since I didn't know when that day would be I prepared my self by stopping in here one weekend to check out the adoption process for when that day would come because I wish I could help them all but I could only do my part and give one a home. The cat shelter is a empty house converted to a cat shelter with about 200 cats roaming free on both floors, the problem ones who didn't get along with the free roam concept were in cages. It's heart breaking because as soon as you walk in the smart ones see fresh meat and jump on your shoulders to get your attention, please take me home. What the reviewers are talking about is the crazy lady as I affectionately call her, she has a soup nazi style about her that interviews you as a candidate for one of her animals. She is a tough lady and just wants to make sure the animals go to good homes and I don't know what her guide lines are. She has an interrogator style of interviewing me I thought. I explained to her that my current kitty has her days numbered and I would be able to give an animal a home in the near future and did she grill me. I said can I look around and put a couple cats on a list and if they were still not adopted when I was ready I would like to give one a home, she had a nice woman show me around and the cats. I meet Magma that day and I heard her horrible story of how her mama gave birth to her in the shelter a year ago, all kinds of people came to look at her but no one gave her a home so I ask what's wrong with her, nothing. She was born a black cat with beautiful blue eyes, that's not this cat because she doesn't have blue eyes I said, her birth blue eyes changed to a yellow so the file pictures were not the cat people came to look at so no one who came to see her adopted her and she was left behind over and over again. So many people came to look at her over the year and no one wanted her, I'll take her. I went back to the crazy lady and said I would like to give magma a home as soon as possible after hearing her heart breaking story so I filled out the paper work and I was told she would get back to me next week after checking out my references, I had to call my vet and give them permission to answer all of her questions when she calls. While spending time with Magma after starting the process She was calling my references, an hour later the woman who was working with The crazy lady that day says to hang around just a little because you just might be the first person ever to leave with an animal on the same day. Sure enough She summons me to her office space, Magma is cutely crawling on everything as she watches us start to bond and says you will be the first person ever to leave with an animal on the same day after checking me out, I never do this but if for any reason Magma doesn't work out I have to bring her back to her and sign an agreement to that affect. Magma who was renamed has enjoyed a pampered/spoiled life for the last six years and fhas a happy forever home now, she got to live with jazz for a couple months before her quality of life left her. THE BOTTOM LINE IS She is I tough cookie and she just wants the best for the animals so PLEASE stop by because the animals still need homes. I'm so glad that I stopped by just to introduce my self as a future home giver because my chance visit ended up in Magma finally getting her forever home which she desperately deserved. I'm posting pictures of her from the six years of her forever home with me to show the joys of a rescue animal and it's not just cats, it's dogs to farm animals are here so please check them out. She is not a crazy lady really and just doesn't want to give an animal in the shelter to someone who might not be the right fit for the animal was my impression so I get it but please stop and look, she takes adoption very seriously and not everyone will pass her qualifications. Your Magma might be waiting for you to stop by and your joyous relationship is waiting for you.

The dog desperately needs to be spayed, so I have followed the protocol online to get an appointment. I gotten online the second spay appointments open on the first of every month. I've been doing it for three months with no success. This month, I actually got through the appointment process and found an open spot. YAY!! But when I got to the last step, their webpage glitched, as it often does, and I had to start over. So, I'm that apparent 30 second timeframe, there were no more appointments left, including the one I had just tried to reserve. I immediately called and left a message, hoping they could help and the message I got was basically, "too bad so sad, have a better day." As a public service that purports to want to help manage the stray population, and care for animals, their policies and lack of willingness to help seems a lot more likely to lead to a box of unwanted puppies being left at their doorstep than anything else. We will likely help our daughter figure it out, but many are not in the position to do that. I wonder how many We will likely help our daughter figure it out, but many are not in the position to do that.
