Needless to say, I LOVE my kitty, but since this is a review of the shelter, not my cat, I will try to keep the fact that WE LOVE OUR KITTY out of it. :) This shelter is fairly small compared to others I've been to. It's one of the cleanest ones I've ever encountered-- very few dog cages with piles of poop in them and the cat boxes were all clean and tidy. It's obvious that the shelter doesn't have much money-- there is no vet in-house and both the cats and dogs have fairly small cages. The tiny dogs and puppies fair a little better and at least have a blanket or something to curl up on. When we were looking at both the cats and dogs, very few notes were given about the animal, but they were very nice about letting us take out whatever we wanted to play with. When we adopted, we were shocked to learn that they let the animals leave the shelter without being spayed or neutered! Wow! That goes against everything I assumed about shelters, but hey, we got our cat, and I am happy. She was given food and a place to sleep while she was there, although she came out with fleas, ear mites, round worms and giardia (but it's likely she came to the shelter with most, if not all of that). Still, they get an extra star for all the hard work they put in and working with what they've got-- it's not an easy job to see all these animals everyday, I am sure. The fact that they don't ask you any questions about what kind of pet parents you might be speaks, I think, to a level of desperation on their part just to have anyone willing to take one of these furry friends home. I am not someone who would ever, EVER buy a dog or cat when there are so many at the shelter-- there are too many animals in need to even think about it. But there will be some start-up costs if you choose to adopt from here and I would recommend taking your new family member to the vet *immediately* to get checked out (ours was at the vet within hours). Even with the costs considered, there is something about getting a pet from a shelter-- somehow they know you've rescued them-- and they become the most loving, loyal, sweetest companions you'll ever have.

After adopting a kitten from Evansville Animal Control, we got talking to our friends about our new…read morelittle family member. Each of them who had cats told us that we just had to get another one because they do so much better in pairs. Another one, you say? Okay, twist our arms!! So the search began on petfinder.com for a buddy for our new little kitty. We were loathe to go back to the animal shelter again because of the huge vet bill we encountered from the first one-- cute as she was, she came with fleas, mites, worms, and giardia-- the works!! I don't think she was feeling too well when we first brought her home, but she perked up and showed her curious, spunky self in no time. So back the the search: this time I was looking for a kitty who had been in foster care but was still a rescued animal (I will not, under any circumstances, get a pet that is not a rescue). Lo and behold, I came across PAAWS-- an organization made up of 11 or so volunteer households that take in pets and keeps them until they are adopted. In foster care was Kiki-- the cutest little grey and white fuzzy ball of fur you've ever seen. It was love. I called the adoption line and sent them an email-- someone got back to me right away. I asked all the questions that were at the forefront of my mind after my animal control experience: Did Kiki have fleas? No. Were they sure about the flea thing? Yes. Did she have worms? Nope. How about shots? All shots were current AND she was already spayed!! So we met at Petco and it took one little chirp (yes, she chirps) and swish of her tail for hubby and I to decide we loved her. We brought her home and after 1 day of a little hissing, Kiki and our shelter kitty Tara became best friends. I would recommend adopting an animal from Paaws without reservation-- Kiki has been the healthiest, most loving kitty I've had!

Our personal experience has been great both times! The doctors have always been caring & compassionate, and didn't make us feel like "crazy cat people" running to the vet at the first sneeze. The price was also reasonable -- we spent less than $100 at both visits for basic exam & medication. Our most recent appointment was on New Year's Eve, which was very convenient so our sick kitty didn't have to wait 2 more days to receive treatment! Love Village East. UPDATE 11/8/15: We had to finally take the 3rd cat in for something, and still had a great experience. Even though there wasn't anything wrong and we were just being paranoid pet parents, Village East made sure to explore the possibilities without charging us an arm & a leg. They even complimented us on our cat's name (Falkor) saying, "That's an awesome name for a cat." Love this clinic and will continue to use them whenever we need to (although, hopefully that won't be very often!)
