My friend actually does fostering for them and has done a few litters of kittens and puppies, so she is the one who introduced us to BHS, and we're so glad she did! Conan was my first cat (first of the two, and first ever) and we got him from BHS. He was a kitten that was part of a new litter with a young mother. They were at an overrun "kill" shelter in Arkansas, and when a rescue heard about this situation, they connected with BHS - who sprung to action. They had someone drive roundtrip from Nebraska to Arkansas to save these babies! And I can't thank them enough because one of them was my little orange man who I can't imagine not being mine. They did their due diligence with us too, to make sure we were a good fit for adopting one of their animals. We had to sign an adoption contract that included things like providing healthy food and the best care, and agreeing that we would never give him up because we were moving, and that if we WERE going to do that (never!) that we'd call them before we did anything like that and return him to BHS to find a better home for him. They also called before approving us to chat about those topics too and just make sure we were serious about adoption. Once that was all good, Conan was ours! And we heard a little while later that all five other kittens and the mother were also adopted - that's SEVEN kitties saved by BHS! Once we had Conan for a little over a year, I saw that my friend had another litter she was fostering from BHS. We decided it was time to add another kitten to the house, as we read that they can be happier in pairs. So we did another adoption with BHS that was just as smooth! We added Remy to the family and he and Conan are the best "brothers" (connected by BHS!) and friends Thank you BHS!!

I adopted a dog from HUA and he was a wonderful. My son and many friends have also adopted from…read moreHUA with great success. They take wonderful care of the animals, feeding them well, getting vet care, giving them treats and toys, and treating each one with attention and love. They are careful with adoptions so that the pet goes to a good home. The animals may have been traumatized in their previous situation and rehabilitated at HUA so their new home needs to be a good fit. Another reviewer said the website might not be up to date as far as adoptions listed. The website relies on volunteers and they might be a little behind at times of lots of adoptions. The reviewer also complains about them "soliciting sponsorships". They are not aggressive about it but you can be a "buddy" to offer some support for a dog waiting to be adopted. They will let you know when the dog is adopted and you can switch to another "buddy" or end your support at any time. They are active in surrounding communities offering low cost neuter/spay and help to pet owners who run into serious problems supporting their pets. They recently started an outreach to give care to pets of homeless veterans in Victory Village apartments in Omaha working with a Girl Scout group and veterinarian Dr Jensen.

We had ALL -- mothers and kittens -- spayed, neutered and given all shots plus vet care, which was a VERY substantial expense. I recently I appealed (three times) to HUA to help us find homes for four remaining cats, to save them from the coyotes that roam the neighborhood. I was told in NO uncertain terms that they would NOT accept cats. That, despite their website advertsing their cats for adoption, and their professed no-kill policy. I was trying to save these cats from death by coyote, but nothing I said, nor the years of donations, made any difference. I am more than angry. Ifeel used and betrayed. It's a shame that HUA's "humanity" apparently can be turned on and off like the hot water.

Sadly, not this one. My husband and I have owned cats for most of our lives, declawed, indoor cats who lived into their late teens. We miss them still, but we have been in the process of having four children and both working demanding full time jobs so we went a few years without cats while our kids were young and I was still working. Now, we are ready again. We have three daughters ages 17, 15, and almost 13. My older two daughters just adopted two kittens from another rescue two months ago. My youngest didn't find the perfect match so we waited and began looking at other rescues. We have a pair of Guinea pigs, and our cats are indoor only, so we declaw them and we were honest about this on our application to feline friendz. My daughter was overjoyed when our application was approved. We went out and bought all of his supplies, toys, everything he would need and set it up. My daughter had even planned to keep the name Diego, she loved it. We just had to wait to hear from the foster to schedule a time to pick him up. Two days later we were asked by the rescue if we had been contacted by Diego's foster yet. When I replied that we had not, I was asked to provide my number again because I should have been contacted by now. I provided it, still heard nothing, then the following day we were told that the foster had chosen another home for Diego ( however he is still listed for adoption), because of the declaw issue. I understand that this topic is sensitive to some people, but we were honest from the beginning and were still chosen. My daughter's heart is broken. The foster relayed through the rescue that she found someone else for Diego because she didn't have the courage to tell me herself. This has been a heartbreaking experience for us. I suspect they have been disingenuous at best, because after we were approved, then told the foster found someone else for Diego, he is still up for adoption. We are a happy home with two happy adults who can afford to care for any need our pets have, and have the experience both in life and in our professional work to recognize those needs, four happy kids, two happy dogs, the happy spoiled Guinea pigs, and two new, newly declawed and completely recovered kittens who are playful all day and who sleep with my older daughters each night after spending their days together at home with me. My youngest daughter will find her perfect kitten too, sadly not Diego, but we will find him or her. This rescue failed our family multiple times, and my only hope now is that Diego actually does have a new home that will care for him the way we would have. I see from other reviews that this rescue has no problem turning down good homes and crushing potential adopters dreams in the process. The review I read prior to posting this was heartbreaking as well. Zero stars to feline friendz.

I can only review for their boarding capabilities. This was my first time boarding out herd (3…read moredogs) and will admit I was quite nervous. From the beginning they responded to all of my questions very quickly. The facility was nice with clean beds, towels, bowls, and kennels. I opted to leave their food which they were ok with. They sent pictures daily and gave me updates daily (sometimes more when I asked questions). I thought their price was very reasonable for 3 dogs and was happy to see they offered a military discount. I will definitely recommend and use the facility for boarding again. I added photos of my pups to make you smile

I'd also like to add that the front desk staff (the welcome desk, not the folks in the back - they are very friendly) are incredibly rude.
