Years ago, we adopted a mother cat and her kitten. Mother(Gracie) at the time was 10 months old and…read morethe kitten(Chloe) was 8 weeks. They were both rescue kitties. Fast forward to 10 years later. Chloe got sick and later found out she was filled with cancer and we had to put her down. A few months went by and Gracie was acting depressed and not eating. We figured she was lonely so we sought out another cat for Gracie. We read about the Humane Society of the Nature Coast and decided to go there even though it was 30 miles from our house. We had looked online before going to see what was available. We picked out 4 cats to look at. We were looking for an older cat as we didn't want to go through the whole kitten stage. So when we got there we were amazed at the facility. It was clean. The cats were kept in rooms with multiple cats, plenty of toys, cat towers, and a cat door heading to a screened in patio they called Catios. In the Catios there were shelves all along the screened area(they also had wire so they couldn't get out of the screen) the cats could sit and look outside and get fresh air. We looked at all of the cats we had picked out and had settled on one. On our way to tell them which one we had picked, we walked by this room that had a quarantine sign on it. Evidently the cats in that room had been exposed to ring worms. As we walked by, this scrawny little kitty was sitting by the door looking out the window. Doors had full length glass in them. We inquired about the room and they told us that if we entered that room we could not go into any other room afterwards. We agreed and went in and looked at and interacted with one kitty. They had named her Turtle Sundae. She was a Patch Tabby and had the colors of a turtle candy and a vanilla and chocolate sundae. She was four years old and exactly what we wanted. We decided on the way out that we didn't want to name her Turtle Sundae, so we dropped the Sundae and left her as Turtle. So this was a weekend and they said we could pick her up on Monday. The adoption process was so simple. Turtle had all of her shots and was spade. I picked her up on Monday and the adoption process only took about 30 minutes. The $75.00 adoption price was reasonable. I put Turtle in her carrier and out the door we went. On the way home, I stopped at the vet and had Turtle checked out per the agreement I signed at the facility. Doctor said she was in great shape and all was good. Fast forward to 6 months later. Turtle has turned into a wonderful companion. To sum it all up. Humane Society of the Nature Coast is exactly what it says. They are Humane, the staff is outstanding, the facility is clean, the adoption process was painless, and the price was reasonable. I have recommended this place to several people. I would use them again. This is truly a 5 star place and experience.

But my wife and I fell in love with a pup there on Christmas Eve but couldn't adopt that exact day. So filled out an application gave them our current dogs information including not being fixed. So we made a meet and greet appointment with our current doggo and the potential new addition two days later. We arrive on time only to be told we cannot do the meet and greet and cannot adopt because the dog at the shelter because he was recently fixed and won't be sterile for another 6 weeks. I was like ok cool so we have to come back in 6 weeks to do it then because we still want that dog. Nope. Said they didn't want the dogs to mate and create more puppies which I do understand to an extent. Just super disappointing they were not willing to work with us as we are trying to rescue a dog to a very good home to be spoiled at. And never called us to let us know because my wife and I made ourselves available for the next available meet and greet appointment. Phone numbers and emails were on the application and feel like this could've been handled more professionally. End of the day the dog they held for us and we intended on taking home today will unfortunately be sleeping at a shelter until another family falls in love with him as well.

I went to drop off a pregnant cat that I found and could not get off the property fast enuf. Dogs were walking in piles and piles of feces and the cat facility wreeked so bad of urine that it made my eyes burn. There was half eaten food on the counter and piles of garbage in every direction. There were bags of feces strewn through out the property. The person I spoke with appeared to be strung out and could not shut up long enough for me to get a word in. I am going to contact the SPCA headquarters at 212-244-7722 and SPCA of Florida Lakeland. Florida. Please please please do not bring animals there. I would not give this place 1 star.

I went to the Humane Society of Pasco off of Harmon three times with intentions to adopt a dog…read more Three times I went they were closed and I went several more times and they were still closed even though the sign said they were open, but they were closed. So I happen to just cut through Harmon on my way to Publix and saw they were open. I went inside and I still wanted another dog. They had several dogs that I was interested in and there was a dachshund that was a little bit older, but I was very interested in him because he was a dapple and I love dapples. When I met the dog, it was like we were made for each other. But when I told the people at the counter, I was interested in adopting the dog right then, they told me they would put me on a waiting list because there were six other people in line for this dog. They could have told me this to begin with and not got my hopes up. So once again, I left without a dog. I went back two more times and I strictly told them no Pitbulls and no pitbull mixes and that's all they had but they brought me out and showed me the dogs. They may be very nice people and they care about their animals, but they need to be a little bit more informative, and upfront when people make requests. And they need to open when they're supposed to be open. I ended up getting two miniature dachshunds from a breeder friend and I am very happy with them. One is a dapple and the other is red so I'm extremely happy. But as far as the Humane Society on Harmon, I don't recommend them. Sorry, but that's how I feel.

Honestly, I shouldn't not have given him my money. I spent $136 on what I wanted for my 2 cats. I am not coming back here. Re: the owner's response. Shame on you.

We were told she had worms but is at the end of treatment so take her out more than usual. This amazing dog Daisy had explosive diarrhea to the point she didn't even know she had to go. We took her back for treatment for $180.00+ fee. No change in Daisy's condition after the meds or change in food. We were told a culture was needed for $2-300.00 and antibiotics for $500 for the 1st week. The vet said we got a group of dogs from Miami with a bad bacteria. After a stern message to Mandy she agreed they would cover that cost. The culture showed nothing. Due to the no resolve and the episodes of diarrhea exceeding 10 × a day and the weight loss of 11+ lb my dad returned her to Mandy. He was assured he would receive the $400 adoption fee but not the vet fee to Mandy's Husband. As of 8/12/24 and today is 10/5/24 no check. We desperately love Daisy and know she is locked in a cage in a store room next to the ASAP VET CLINIC IN BROOKSVILLE FL defecating on herself until the next person adopts her. DON'T DONATE OR ADOPT FROM THIS PLACE THAT CALLS THEMSELVES A RESCUE. GOD LOVE THE ANIMALS THEY "TAKE IN FOR RESCUE". It's a money making scam that only the animals suffer as do the people who adopt.

Her adult dogs and two 9 wk old puppies, were all well groomed and appeared healthy and extremely well socialized. She introduced us to both minis and medium Australian labradoodles. All had beautiful fleece coats of different colors and lengths. All were very friendly and playful. Polly shared 8 weeks of emails (she sends to all prospective parents) filled with everything one needs to know about their pup. As Polly said- she will provide us with a great puppy, it's up to us to make him a great dog. For the next 2 months, we searched in Fl and Ga and didn't find anything that came close to our experience at Polly's. I am excited to say- after the behavioral assessments are done in a few weeks we will pick our very own 'Polly pup'.
