It's a great way to give back to the community and give these fur babies some love and attention! The volunteer class was very organized and informative. We got a shirt at the end and we got to volunteer for about 90 minutes afterward too, and now we're all set! We adopted an 18 month old cat here a few years ago and have been hooked ever since. We'll definitely get our next cat & dog from here too. Adoption fees are nominal considering the care and attention each animal receives. The cattery is our favorite spot, but we pick a couple of Level 1 dogs to give our attention too as well. Adopt, don't shop!

While looking over some of the dogs, a staff member asked what i was interested in, and introduced me to some dogs that might fit my interests. She was extremely helpful, explaining a lot about adoption services and options.

I'll definitely be back when i am ready to take steps toward adoption.

I wish they would have suggested that I bathe the kitten when I got her home. I am struggling with bills.... this was a huge unexpected expense for me. Im very disappointed and may never foster again...

I guess they would also do the same for your family pets. Our situation started when a stray cat decided to have her kittens underneath our deck. The deck is so low to the ground that a person can't get under it. So we fed the momma cat and her babies when they got old enough to eat cat food. She had 5 babies that survived. However, since we live in an area that has many different animals (coyote, bobcat, fox), 2 babies disappeared quickly. We knew we had to do something as the remainder didn't have much time left on earth. My wife checked with the shelters nearby, and unfortunately, they were all full. While my wife was checking where we could take them, the momma cat disappeared. Now we were left with 3 young ones. We are dog people, so we had never thought about ever having a cat(s). But they were so cute, the wife decided we should take them in. However, we did not want any more babies, so we knew we needed to fix them. That's where Hill Country comes in. My wife called them to see if they could be seen any time soon and left a message. They got back to us the next week, discussed what we could do, and set up an appointment to fix the 2 boys first. The day of the appointment, we got to the business right on time and were able to park right in front of the building. A young lady came out quickly (they don't let anybody inside) and went over everything with us, got us to sign the paperwork, and took the boys inside. Everything went well, and we were able to pick them up late the same afternoon. The only negative about the entire situation is that you are not allowed inside. You don't know anything about how clean it is or anything else. Will we return? When the female kitten gets a little older.
