This place has stars at all because the cats are super friendly and so sweet and deserve a home!!!…read more CONS: I volunteered at this place when I first moved out of my house and started living on my own. I worked three jobs and volunteered every Friday morning and whenever else they called me to come in to scoop litter. The cages are not the cleanest and are actually sorta cramped. There are TOO many cats for the size of the place. One time they took a cat who was positive for FIV (Feline Aids) and had it in a cage squished between all of the other cages! They put blankets to isolate it but it seemed way too cramped and dangerous to me! Obviously the place is run by volunteers. I congratulate them for trying to help the cats in need. Cats need all the help they can get and I am happy this place exists. Whenever someone is looking for a cat I tell them to go here. The only problem is, the owner is the biggest asshole on the planet. Every time I tried to adopt a cat she would make up a reason it couldn't leave the shelter, even going so far as to take one of the completely healthy cats to her house! I filled out an application, brought in the $100, brought in references for one cat. When my boyfriend and I came in she harshly said the cat isn't even ready to be adopted and that I had been turned down by whatever authority looks over the papers. But I know it was just HER! She said her reason was that my mom had brought a bird back to PetCo one time and claimed I'd do the same to a cat. It was ridiculous. I argued with her because I was so hurt. I had been looking forward to adopting the cat for a month and my boyfriend and I had gotten the house ready for him. My boyfriend is a dog handler and a very kind person. I have owned cats before and love them with all my heart. But she still turned me down and said I was unfit to own a cat! That was 2 years ago and to this day I still remember it. Very offensive, rude, pushy and she can't take care of that amount of cats. One even escaped into the ceiling. I knew how to get the cat to come out and she wouldn't let me do it my way so the cat stayed up there for a week. Make sure you're 30+ years old when adopting cats or she'll be very prejudice based on your age. And apparently I am unfit to own a cat, but worthy to volunteer to take care of them... I now have three healthy, happy, loving cats. Wish I was able to adopt the cats I had liked at her shelter, but mine are just as great.

We found the process extensive which is better than just giving dog away so we were ok with this…read more Our problem is that they listed the dog being in not only the same state as us but also the same town as we lived in. Once selected to be able to adopt we were then told our dog was in another state and two hours away from us. Which we did go ahead and adopt but found that all the vaccines were done in an order that made them no longer affective so we had to do all vaccines ourselves. It also seemed to be listed as if our dog had been micro chipped but he was not. Also seems weird that they had several puppies rescued at the same time but didn't know who the mother was which makes me nervous that this could potentially be a dog mill rescue. I also had another friend try and adopt a sibling of our dog where a date and time was set up for the zoom home inspection only to have the person never call for the zoom and never again contacted to reschedule. When my friend asked about this they were told another family had adopted the dog. This seems wrong to do this to someone who took the tone off from work to do a home inspection only to never be contacted to say this had been canceled. This was not even the first step he had already got three references interviewed and and an over the phone interview and vet contacted from previous dogs history and was now just waiting to have the home inspection thru a zoom call never be call again until he reached out to the rescue to see why no one had contacted him at the set time to be then told the dog had been adopted by someone else. This was heartbreaking not only to the guy apply for the dog but to me as someone who had referred him to this company to only have this happen. We lived close by and could have had sibling doggy play dates. Very disappointed.

They were responsive to my questions via text or phone throughout the process. When I picked him up, the foster parents were there so there was an opportunity to hear see first hand how loved he had been. I waited a long time to adopt another dog, taking into consideration the high cost of vets, food, insurance, and reputable sitters. He I stretched my budget , but I was prepared, and he is worth his weight in gold. I had not adopted in years, but they were very transparent about the costs involved in the process. They indicated they would take $50 off the bill with proof of neutering, which they did. I was surprised by a couple of negative reviews I saw. The PawSafe Alumni Facebook group is very active. There are hundreds of very happy dogs and owners. We're like a family. I know people often write only when they have negative experiences and the rest of us do not, but I had to weigh in. Dogs everywhere deserve to be rescued. Do not be discouraged!

We know have Holden/Spike Dudley…read more It all happened with looking for a kitten on FOHA's website. A cute kitten caught out eye. We reached out with questions all answered in great detail. We completed an application online and left a payment. One of our close friends was then contacted as a reference. Next thing I knew we had a home visit scheduled which turned into Spike's first night at our home and a member of our family. It was an easy process and we have a kitten that is very easy going and great with our kids (but not so great with our shower curtain but that's just catnanigans!)

If you can avoid this rescue, I sincerely recommend you do so. We experienced a total nightmare. We…read moreadopted a dog and were assured he was good with cats. We fully disclosed we owned two cats, a 2 year old and a 16 year old elderly cat. They gave us the dog only three days after two major surgeries, but the foster gave us very minimal details about the medications and did not tell us he had been on a previous medication. The dog ended up having a paradoxical reaction to his medications, and I had to call the vet who did the neuter and cherry eye to figure out what to do. We had to keep him in a crate a lot for his own safety, because a cherry eye surgery needs the dog to be almost entirely activity free for two weeks. When the dog was able to be calm, I allowed him on the couch with me. He attacked our elderly cat twice, and every time he laid eyes on her, it was obvious he wanted to chase her down. One of these attacks resulted in my cat being bitten. The foster then tried to say he probably just put his mouth on her, but she cried out in very obvious pain. He BIT her, full teeth on her flesh. The foster also tried to blame my cat for the dogs behavior, stating it was her fault for not fighting back. She has been around numerous dogs, and none have ever treated her this way. Its inexcusable to say it was her fault. The foster was maybe the worst part of the whole experience. She was rude and condescending and even implied it was my fault my previous dog passed away earlier this year from a silent tumor that burst on his spleen. She also picked apart every single medical decision I made for my animals in a way that felt like I was being severely judged and looked down upon. We did literally everything in our power to save that dog. My husband and I feel that we were lied to, especially by the foster. This dog was not safe with cats, was highly reactive, and should not have been given the okay to come into our home. We were told he was polite with cats. The temperament and behavioral issues were withheld in a way that felt deliberate. It took over a week with multiple phone calls and emails to finally receive our money back.
