Lauren Davis was his foster Mom & I can't say it enough how helpful & caring she was during the whole process.

The pleasure and happiness Murphy brings me is PRICELESS! Thank you Lauren Davis & Live Love Pet Care for all you do!

Forms go missing , very demanding as to the forms you must complete. I was there about cats but had to answer questions that pertained to a dog. Then an extra cat only section. After turning in my paperwork I received a message that I needed to do more paperwork. Given that I handed in the paperwork in person and was there for a good deal of time it surprised me that the needed items were not brought to my attention earlier. I am told that cat follow up is two months out. Dogs two years. Expect hostility dressed as process. Unprofessional conversation about other clients & callers. I recommend going to adopt or utilize the store. If you need service prepare for a long wait , red tape , misrepresentation and regret.

Although I ended up not being a match for Eli, the initial adoption process through K9 Kismet went smoothly. First, I completed an adoption form and waited for someone to contact me. I received a call from Nici who arranged for a meet and greet in an office in Los Alamitos. We also had a tentative home check arranged. After a meet and greet between Eli with another prospective adoptive family, Nici advised that Eli would probably not be a good fit in my household. I couldn't agree more with her assessment because I have a smaller dog in my home that would probably be prone to getting injured by Eli's sheer playfulness. He is a solid dog with a lot of energy. The other dog in my house is a senior teacup chihuahua. I am so happy that Eli has since found his forever home. His story is one that tugged at my heartstrings and I just had to meet him. Even though it did not work out between us, K9 Kismet is a legit rescue that cares about the wellbeing of the pet and thoroughly vets their applicants.

The adoption process was incredibly smooth, and the staff were kind, welcoming, and extremely helpful every step of the way, making the experience completely stress-free. We couldn't be happier with our two kittens and are so grateful to the Seal Beach Animal Care Center for bringing them into our lives. All of the kittens are friendly, already spayed or neutered, and up to date on most of their vaccinations, which gave us even more peace of mind. You guys were amazing--I highly recommend this shelter to anyone looking to adopt a dog or cat! Just a heads up--many of the negative reviews seem to come from people who are mad they didn't meet the standards. In reality, it's clear that the staff genuinely care about ensuring their animals are placed in safe, loving homes. I really respect the level of dedication they show to the well-being of each animal.

I spoke with our hosts over the phone before the party. They answered all of my questions, offered to configure the lobby for our needs, and assured me that there would be several volunteers assisting on the night of the party. We loved hosting such a unique party. All our daughter's friends were mesmerized by the cats. With so many cats in multiple rooms (kitten room, main room, quiet room), each of the girls and adults found their "spot" and had a great time. There was more than enough space for the 23 guests we had The cats were so sweet and fun. With dozens of cats in the same room, you might think that the cats would be fighting or disruptive, but it was just the right mix of calm and playfulness. We brought in pizza and cupcakes, which we set up in the lobby. Cat Nap graciously provided tablecloths and some paper goods. The lobby is small and doesn't have the space for seating, but the girls didn't mind standing or sitting on the floor while they ate. They were eager to get back to the cats, so we didn't spend much time with the food. The volunteers absolutely blew us away with their hospitality. They offered to help us set up and haul trash, and they provided a first aid kit to a couple of our guests who got scratched by the kitties. They answered questions from our curious guests, and they kept the space very clean through the whole evening. Overall, we are so happy to have hosted a party at Cat Nap! Several of our guests are now asking their parents to have their birthday parties there, too!

Wow! The Catpaws team is genuinely the definition of 5 star service…read more A little about my experience: I have a colony of stray cats in my neighborhood that I have been working on getting fixed. I met Julie from the HB team based off of recommendations from AALOC. Julie and her team were excellent, delivering quality service and most importantly, showing that they truly care about the community cats. I would love to highlight that Julie went above and beyond by helping me connect with OCAA to make sure I could make my goals with helping the community cats. Without Julie's support, kindness, and quick attention, I would not have been able to navigate this process as easy. I do not write yelp reviews often, so this should really go to show that the Catpaws team is exceptional. I wish I got the name of her other team members because everyone was truly wonderful, and made me feel excited to make a positive impact on the cat community. Cat people are the best people, and the Catpaws team truly proves that statement. Anyways! A Huge thank you to Julie & her team, I couldn't be more appreciative of their efforts. It is fair to say that words cannot sum up the excellence enough. 10/10 would recommend!
