    Bruno in his kennel
    Hanna L.

    I was very pleased with our experience here. Growing up, I used to visit from time to time to take some of the older dogs outside on a leash to play. Now, they have different protocols and you can't necessarily just grab a dog to take outside, but that's fine. You must sign in, and if you are wanting to adopt there is a process to go through. I BACK THIS 100%. Any place who will just give you an animal without any sort of adoption process seems sketchy in my opinion and like they're just trying to make money. Too many pets are adopted and then abandoned, mistreated, or passed off to someone else because they couldn't handle being a pet owner in the first place. PAWS not only screened our family, but also held a meet and greet for us to bring our pets from home to see if they get along with the new fur baby. Once these things have been accomplished, they will spay or neuter your animal for free and you are able to come pick him/her up after a few days. The staff was friendly and helped me to the car with our new fur baby and his things (you get a goodie bag with toys, information, food, etc.). It's funny because we went in not even sure if we would find someone to bring home with us but instantly fell in love with Bruno who we've had for a year and a half now. If you live in Rutherford county, you can get on their waitlist for free spay/neuter services for your pet. Also, sometimes they do "free adoption Fridays" where they waive the adoption fees. If you are looking for a lovable cat or dog, please consider adopting one who desperately needs a home rather than buying a puppy bred to be sold. It took about a month for Bruno to come out of his shell and into his true personality but it was well worth the wait. I couldn't imagine life without him!

We have been fighting the giardia for over a month with multiple fecal tests and multiple rounds of medicines, that will not be covered by the "warranty" and don't hold your breath for the warranty people to call or email back. We could have saved $1500 by going directly to a breeder, but fell in love with her at the store. With all that said, always buy from an actual breeder you can verify and trust. We took a chance with a pet store and it was a mistake. However, our new little pup is not a mistake! It's not her fault and we will love her and take care of her no matter what!

    We've been working closely with Agape Animal Rescue as a foster home for one of their puppies the…read morepast few months. The puppy was found injured, and the organization does an incredible job making sure dogs get the proper care from veteranians and caretakers alike. They scheduled a surgery for our foster dog within the month, and gave us detailed instructions on how to take care of him post operation. The organization is guided by animal behaviorists who offer numerous Zoom session classes on how to train dogs of any age. To get dogs adopted, Agape takes great care making sure dogs are matched across several categories to adoring homes. Everything this organization does is thorough and thoughtful, ensuring dogs are properly cared for. If you're hoping to adopt a dog or help foster one, this is an excellent organization to work with!

    Rescues: dogs Rescue location type: foster network…read more Agape Animal rescue is a rescue for dogs only. They rescue dogs of all shapes and sizes. This organization is pretty big and they have need for volunteers, fosters, interns (can do for college credit), employees, adopters, and donations. This month, they helped Animal Rescue Corps with Operation unbridled Spirit and saved a bunch of puppy mills dogs! Help them out! They make fostering really a great experience and are looking for year-round fosters, temporary/ short term fosters (for long term fosters who go on vacation, etc), and emergency fosters for cases of hoarding or puppy mill closures. They also do a bunch of events to fundraise like the upcoming Agape Animal Ball on October 19th!

    I absolutely loved this place! The one bit of criticism I have doesn't even bring down the rating…read more As others have mentioned, it's quiet and has a very comfy ambience. There were a lot of people while we were there, so we didn't get to hang out with a few of the cats, but I'm glad they were being entertained enough by the other people~ All those sweethearts deserve the love. The food options weren't like a "traditional cafe" in the way that everything other than the coffee was prepackaged. There were some absolutely adorable cat shaped cookies that looked great! They had many other options on snacks too. The workers there were nice and cared about the cats a lot. Now for my one downside: trying to adopt. The cat we really liked was already going home with someone else. It was kind of hard to not be at least a little sad that this very affectionate kitty wasn't coming home with us, but that's just how it goes I guess. I wish places like this would have some way to identify which pets were already spoken for. There wasn't really any way upfront to tell other than finding a worker and asking. Maybe they could receive a temporary collar? Again, this doesn't ruin the experience and I would still highly recommend a visit! But if you want to adopt any of the cats, maybe let the employees know when you walk in.

    Eva's Eden is a wonderful mobile cat rescue in Nashville! What makes them different exactly? Well,…read morefor one they are mobile. They operate with a network of volunteers who foster the adoptable cats during the week, then on the weekend they are brought to the mobile adoption center for people to come visit, love and hopefully adopt! They did a great job outfitting the mobile adoption center. It has a beautiful cat tree in the center. I heard one of their volunteers is an artist and made it specifically for Eva's Eden. There is seating around the big picture windows and toys to engage with the cats. It's not super big, so I wouldn't go with a big group. (not that there are big roaming gangs visiting cat adoptions, but you get the idea...) They pride themselves on being a no cage shelter and you can tell that the cats are really well adjusted & socialized because they are living in foster homes during the week instead of in a cage. Not only was it delightful to spend my afternoon playing with a room full of cats, but the owner and volunteers are all so warm and inviting. I've been to some shelters where I feel like I'm being sized up & judged as to whether or not I will be a fit pet parent - but here I felt like I was among friends. Everyone was extremely knowledgeable about cat care, behavior, feeding, vet visits etc. Whether this is your first cat, or you are a cat pro - they have a great vibe and are a great organization to adopt from. The timing didn't work out for us to get our 2nd kitty from them because we are moving, but I would absolutely seek them out when the time is right! Check their website for descriptions of cats available or to learn where their mobile center will be next. I haven't seen their adoptable cats on petfinder or other websites, so you'll have to go to their own website or call if you want to check on a specific gender/age availability before you go. And don't forget - adopting a pet isn't a 'for now' decision - adoption is forever!

    I adopted a puppy from them recently. I went in on a Saturday and did all the paperwork. I was…read moreexcited to be able to take home this precious little guy. he was only 7 weeks old. I noticed that he was not eating anything when he was at the adoption place. and would just go to his bed and fall asleep. I thought it was because all his brothers and sisters had got adopted and he was missing his litter mates. when I got him on the Saturday. He still had not ate anything. I figured it was stress and anxiety from being in a new environment. However, that was not the case. by Sunday he could not keep his balance and would just lay in his bed. I knew something was not right. Monday morning i called VCA and told them the issue. I had an appointment with them that Monday in the afternoon but wanted to get my little guy in asap I was scared and worried about him. VCA took him back and advised me that he was sick and needed to stay with them. I then got a call that same after noon and was told he did not make it. VCA was so wonderful and said that he should have been sent over to be looked at before they sent him home with me. So please please when you adopt a puppy or kitten from this place make sure you get them checked before you take them home. I am heartbroken that I lost my little guy. thank you so much love at first sight for making me an emotional reck and making my first experience with you a disaster.

    Really sad that I have to leave a review like this…read more We walked in to meet the kittens and I fell in love with the little orange one. I come from out of town and also work for the airlines so I have travel benefits. Not to mention, I also work with a nonprofit where we transport animals from one state to another for foster and adoptions. When I told the woman at this adoption center my situation, she explained that all the animals there needed to be covered with VCA across the street for a full year. And that if I wanted to take the kitten, it would be about $900 That. Is. Insane. So we walked across the street to VCA for clarity. Not only were they shocked that we were told $900, they also seemed confused so they called the woman on the phone. Upon speaking with her, they explain to me that she will not adopt out to anyone who lives more than an hour outside of Nashville. And that the fees are $750 for 1 year of medical bills at VCA. We go back across the street a second time and ask the woman if we could get her a letter from my veterinarian explaining that the kitten would be in perfect hands and if we could please adopt her for a reasonable flat fee and take her elsewhere for care. The woman changes her story AGAIN and says that she won't adopt the kitten out because she only has 2 and wants to stay open through the weekend. That I can try another facility since it's kitten season. Are you serious? The fact that there are people like her who claim to care about the well-being of their animals, when in actuality it's just a money making business, disgust me.
