(I went to the shelter 2x) I thought the younger volunteers were friendly, but the woman who processes the adoptions (maybe she runs the place) extremely indifferent rude very snarky and difficult to speak with on both encounters I had with her at the shelter. I got the vibe from both her and the animal control officer that my decision to only adopt the female kitten and not the male cat in the community room was litterally going to be the end of the world as I overheard both of them commenting about poor _____ and the loss of his buddy _____ etc. Very passive aggressive behavior and very unprofessional - no matter they gladly took my money and I left with my beautiful kitty. If you see a beautiful cat or dog on their site hold your nose and deal with her bad attitude - My girly is sweet as pie and AND I will find her a buddy elsewhere. P.s. I think they could use a donation of gravel to fix their road and parking lot it's an adventure in potholes that will eat your car.

They get them fixed, if needed, shots , etc and screen adopters to be sure the kitties are going to safe and loving furever homes! The staff is wonderful and so caring of the cats and kittens that are there! They do rely on donations of money, food, litter, etc. to be able to take in more cats. They find foster families to care for mamas and their babies and post pictures of the available cats. I do donate as much as I am able. They truly do an amazing job!! They also have a gift shop to purchase items and that money goes directly to the caring of all the cats. Stop in if you're looking for a kitty to join your family- you will find the perfect one for you!!

Financially we were able to give a donation during the holiday season in addition to buying all the essentials to bring our girl home. But it is nice that they have events such as this where families who might not be able to part with all that money up front can take home a new family member, spoil them a little, and hopefully give back throughout the year rather than just paying the adoption fee. I was impressed by how clean the cat room was and how happy the cats seemed. The volunteers didn't seem to know much about the individuals and the lady working at the front desk was a bit brash. I also do love that it is a non kill shelter. The only thing that brought it down to a 4 was just the harsh attitude behind the desk.

Where do I begin to say how over the top impressed I am with this organization, the property, and…read morethe people that work/volunteer here? Growing up in the area I was always a supporter of the wonderful things this place does for animals, but I never truly appreciated the extent until I took a tour recently. I have worked in the Veterinary field for close to 20yrs in different cities and states, and never come across anything like SFC. We called ahead to see if they had time to give us a tour and they called back with a time to come. We arrived and a volunteer was promptly radioed to start our tour. The main building is quite the sight, they have many different cat rooms depending on their ailment and temperaments. Each room has many different beds, trees, toys, etc and they all have the option to be indoors or in a nice outdoor area with a view. So many of the cats have issues or need daily medicine and I cant believe all the time and money they put into these kitties. Some of them are adoptable, just ask and on the outside of each room there are pictures and description of the residents. Not only does the main building have cats, but there are turtles, birds, and some bunnies as well. The next part of our tour took us out to the barn where we met Donkeys, Ducks, geese, horses, and more. The barn manager was the nicest person and he went into so much detail about each animal and their story. He really took a lot of time with us. I cant believe all the specialized veterinary care they give these special animals, it must cost them a fortune, which is why it is so important the donations they receive. They just completed some improvements to that particular barn to make it better prepared for winter. They do what they can when they can and these animals are so lucky to be here. If you live in the area I am sure you have heard of SFC like I had and I strongly encourage you in one way or another at some point to come by for a tour or to one of their open house events to really see what is going on here. It is amazing. They can always use donations or volunteers, whatever way you can help the special mission this place is carrying out!

That being said, the reason they get one star, is that I called there this afternoon, as I found 2 kittens that had been dumped by someone in my yard out in the country. She told me that she could only take down my info and have someone call me "once they find a foster". She couldn't tell me when I would get a call, that in basically might be hours or days. I declined and attempted to call other facilities, one who refused them completely (see my review of Stevens Swan Humane Society), and one who didn't answer the phone (Spring Farm Cares) I'm now stuck with 2 innocent kittens that are going to die at the hands of the fox and coyotes out here in the wild, as they can't come in my house since I'm deathly allergic to them.

The don't leave you hanging for days when you call, ask questions or do application. The front desk ladies are extremely professional and well organized, as good, much better actually than other rescues I have seen. They have you bring in current dog to meet potential adoptee which to me is a GREAT idea, the young man that handled that was extremely knowledgeable and kind. In todays world of so many needy pets, they are the light at the end of the tunnel, wonderful people and amazingly professionally run. The adoption fee is also very fair considering how much it includes, getting a pet already spayed or neutered is a huge plus. I would recommend adopting from them to all who are looking for a furbaby to add to their family, Bravo SPCA!
