I would definitely recommend checking it out!

We met Natalie because we had just arrived in Manhattan when we found a kitten in a parking lot. We ended up adopting the kitten back after we moved into our house and I was impressed with the application process. Natalie speaks with every adopter one-on-one and I really enjoyed her commentary on our application answers. You can tell she's a person who really wants the best for the adopters and the cats. A few months later we found another cat in that same parking lot and after one call with Natalie we had that cat caught. Every time there has been a cat in need, Natalie has been there to help us help the cat. So many of my friends got their cats from Cattails and love Natalie! Cattails deserves all the stars because they take in so many strays and find them wonderful homes with the most amazing people.

She is absolutely disgusting. I don't recommended adopting from her or using her as a 'rescue'. I…read moretook in a pregnant stray cat that gave birth nearly immediately. We planned to keep all the kittens and mom, and when the kittens were 7 weeks old she started declining in health. Losing weight, having bad diarrhea everywhere non stop- even when she'd jump up on a surface she'd leak. She was super hungry and and not gaining weight to match her eating. We reached out to Natalie and asked her for help. I told her the whole story- about the kittens, her health, everything. She said she'd take her and asked if we wanted her back. We said YES. We would take her back. We were worried she had health problems beyond a spay that a vet could help with. My partner was getting out of the military and we were moving to California, so extra expenses werent a thing we could do at the time. She reaffirmed we wanted her back. We met at petco the next day and she had us sign an owner surrender form and was really pushy/aggressive. I asked my partner if we wouldn't still get her back like we said since she said we would. We decided to trust her- mistake 1. After giving her the paper she was yelling loudly about how as far as she's concerned this is life or death and she owns Jenny now and we won't get her back so she doesn't want to hear any complaints about how she took our cat. My partner walked to the cat food aisle sat down and cried. The day of her spay they called us and said the vet said she recently had kittens. I literally told her that three times at this point. Fast forward to Jenny being spayed. She was at petco the same day -June 27. We filled out to adopt her. The next day a rescue she partners with called and said Jenny had kittens recently and Natalie didn't know where they were ??? (I guess she can't read or hear?) I told them we had all four of the kittens, they're all safe and doing well and that we planned to adopt mom cat back since Natalie went back on her saying we could have her back. She said that was great and she was happy they're all safe. She was worried they were strays too and now alone outside without mom cat. She was going to look for them if that was the case. She wished us luck and told me she'd tell Natalie. The next day Natalie called saying she got our application and my partner lied about how much pet rent and pet deposit is and that Jenny's kittens put us over our pet limit anyway. I called back explaining we're moving to California within days, and already broke lease and everything is fine. I also said how much our pet rent and pet deposit is. She said she called the leasing office and it's a 400$ deposit and 250$ a month. I have the actual lease and it's a 200$ deposit and 25$ a month. We did not lie on our application. She then said Jenny had kittens she didn't know about- again ? and that refused to give them to rescue who called for them the day before- which she NEVER called asking for them. Just making sure there weren't stray kittens needing help. She getting out cat back was a hard no. She said if we continued to inquire about Jenny she would call our leasing office and tell them Jenny's kittens are at our apartment and we're over the limit. She kept saying shit like 'you don't want that do you?'. 'I don't care if you're moving' She demanded to know where the kittens would get fixed in California- name of place, the price of fixing them, said I didn't do my research. Asking us how we could do a trip across country with them. Saying the best place for those kittens is surrendered to her. We live on a large farm property and my partners mother manages a veterinarian office and can take our pets in to work with her to get their needs sorted. We managed the trip just fine with all our pets, which included a lot more than the kittens. After she called being a bitch and threatening to call the leasing office she texted acting nice offering a kennel for the kittens. So if you see Jenny at petco with her depression going on- know Natalie lied her way into stealing her. It wasn't life or death like she thought and she didn't do anything with Jenny past spaying her. The only reason we chose cattails to help was because we thought the cat needed more than a simple spay. And Natalie didn't disclose a simple spay and neuter is all they offer. They do nothing else to help or check the animals out.

Unfortunately, people like that gravitate towards one another and it is going to take an individual who has common sense, integrity, and a heart to zone in on what is going on here and putting a stop to it. ( I have posted pictures) There was no reason for my deposit to be kept and there isnt a reason Lorrie Lowe is leaving false information on my references. My documentation has enough proof to defend what has happened to me. Why the judge sided with them is unknown to me. The board only cares for whether the cases are won or not. I was not a bad tenant and did not deserve what has happened to me at all. This was a power/control move of simply doing because she could. Take pictures before moving in, keep your emails and documentation, take pictures and video at move out. They do not see a problem or own it for it to be fixed and corrected they blame the tenant and write them off as "angry" or whatever they can formulate. A tactic as old as time.
