Very thankful for their services!

It doesn't look like much but it was obvious everyone cares for the animals and wants their best. It was clean and smelled of bleach despite being early on a weekend. We were able to spend some time with one dog and decided to adopt her. They didn't have info but shared all they knew, and even several days later were helpful when we called with questions. These dogs and cats are in a much better place and we so appreciated the care they put into even the tougher cases. They also recommended a trainer when we asked who is already helping us greatly!

We were simply looking at the dogs in kennel 3, specifically near Lobo. She comes in and says "Yeah…read morethis is what we're not gonna do" and goes on a rant in a rude manner. Many other people were sticking hands in, getting near, but we were the only ones getting yelled at. I told her she could've said it nicer and she states "Well it's loud in here, so it's the nicest i can say it". This is not the first time service here has been terrible, people here are quite rude and ruin other's days. She also stated she would kick us out, she went over the top. If employee have bad days they should know how to deal with those feelings, not take it out on customers

My wife and I went to the shelter to look at a pup we saw online. Unfortunately we were about 45…read moreminutes too late. So we decided to look around. Halfway through the 2nd kennel we found a pretty girl just waking up from her nap The place was total chaos with barking dogs. She just sat up and wagged her tail. We had her brought outside and we hung with her for about an hour No pressure from the staff at all. We finally decided that we had stumbled on probably the perfect pup. She's home with us now and I do believe she is very happy. She was surrendered by a homeless person who could not care for her anymore. So we will shower her with love and kisses for as long as she is with us.

Honestly I understand what they are doing, and the idea is great. But they are not the ones who…read moreshould be doing it. First, the location is behind a house, so it feels a little sketchy. Second, once inside the actual building for the animas, it's pretty gross. It truly feels like a few people got together and had an idea and decided to go for it in an old building and some fencing. Also, the lady who "talked" to us was quite rude. Maybe she was having a bad day, but still. All in all, I would much rather see these animals go to an actual shelter, be advertised more, and truly given a fighting chance to get into a good home. I can't see it being here.

The adoption rates are very affordable as well! We had a thorough meeting with our new dog and the handler, met with the adoption team, the behavior team and the medical team and all were very helpful explaining each step and took the time to address any questions we had to walk-through the complete process and history of the animal, as they know it. And the facility is just beautiful! On the dog side, they make it really easy to interact with dogs being considered for adoption and it was just a wonderful experience to find our perfect match and help a dog in need!

Staff was kind, helpful, educated, and efficient. The facility itself is new, clean, and organized. There was no annoyance by my 100 questions, just attentiveness and passion for their work. After listening to my hopes, they gave me a list of cats to view. Horace (shoutout) was so lovely but a little too young for me. Then they brought in Ella, surrendered at 14 just a week before I showed up. She's beautiful. She was shy, but I took a chance. They gave me all the paperwork and linked me to a vet. I was expecting to be there until closing. I was in and out within 2 hours: from looking to having Ella in hand ready to go home. I will be recommending HSHC in the future.

Put them together, and you have a wonderfully easy way to help pets. At Pawz Pet Cafe, all of the cats and kittens that live here are adoptable, and you can visit them. The cats come from Paws on my Heart, Inc., a no-kill cat rescue that takes in cats from many different counties around Indiana. Some people visit Pawz Pet Cafe to suss out a forever friend. But my kids and I visited just for the kitty cuddles. But if you're interested in adopting a cat, there's a binder on a table with information about each cat that you can peruse through. You can also speak to one of the friendly people who are in the sanctuary, and they are happy to answer questions. All of the cats at Pawz are vetted and ready to be adopted. My children and I have visited a few cat cafes, and we all agreed that the cats here were the friendliest we've ever encountered! Most of the cats were ready to play and visit. We did visit right at noon when they opened, so that could be why. I'm thinking that if you want the cats at their freshest, you probably want to visit as early as possible when they aren't touched- and people'd-out. As of this writing, you don't have to make a reservation in order to visit the kitties, but it is recommended. Visiting sessions are in 30- and 60-minute increments. We booked 30 minutes but could have easily stayed a whole hour. Somehow, time slips away when you're petting a cat! Petz also has a beverage bar, which mostly consists of boba beverages as of right now. They are supposed to have coffee soon. My children each got the two most popular boba drinks: Fireworks Fizzle and Catnip Cooler. They both enjoyed their drinks! You'll also find a few snacks, like chips and candy, which you can enjoy in the lounge area away from the cats.
