Yes, their adoption form is insanely long as others have stated (see attached photos), and the questions about employers are a little sketchy. Are they going to contact mine because of a bad review? So be it if they do. My biggest problem is that they require you to PAY FOR THE DOG and sign a contract BEFORE even SCHEDULING a meet-n-greet with you and your current pet(s). And when I was kind enough to tell them I had a meet-n-greet scheduled with another dog before sending them money THEY IMMEDIATELY CANCELED OUR APPLICATION VIA TEXT WITHOUT ANY DISCUSSION. SMELLS LIKE A SCAM. They aren't listed on Google Maps either. Are they legit? IDK, but I'm relieved that they canceled our application after 2 vetting phone calls.

OFOSA is an AMAZING organization to adopt through. They match families based on personality (what…read morethe family is,) and match it to their potential kitty. (It is likely the same for dogs, I don't know.) We first heard of OFOSA through Instagram and followed our Oscar (formerly Drizzle, of the "Sky Kitten" litter,) from his small beginnings as one of 8 and his mama. His foster mom clearly loves each kitty, kitten and older kitty, as her own from the minute she receives them. I was a foster before I had kids, and it's a hard and thankless job from most adopters. They have no idea the love and emotion that goes into raising a healthy kitty only to see them go home and never see them again. We originally wanted the female calico, Sunny, in the litter. My daughter, who is 8 1/2 lost her "soul mate kitty" in February of 2019 and asked for a kitten, so we thought about it and the timing of this litter worked perfectly with our plan to allow her to pick a kitten. When it came to choice time, we did a blind family vote. We wrote down numbers and read the character traits out. Sunny placed last for us all. She wasn't who we should adopt. But when we tallied it up, Drizzle was our CLEAR first place. Cuddly AND playful was what we were looking for and that's exactly what we got. We adopted him almost a month ago, on 12/11/21 and he very quickly won our hearts. He's 16 weeks now and he's a frisky and mischievous little kitten with loads of energy and spunk. He is an absolute love as well. One day when it's time for another kitty, we will absolutely be doing this same process again. He couldn't be a better fit with us. Thank you SO much OFOSA. We LOVE Drizzle now Oscar Roy Drizzle or as I like to call him Oscar Roy "the Driz" Kent (after Roy Kent from Ted Lasso.) We are eternally grateful for his care prior to being our forever kitty by his wonderful foster mom Angela.

Our little man that we named Scout is funny, energetic, smart, and sooooo cuddly. Their facility was clean and well managed as well. The breeder even had us wear booties on our shoes to prevent anything transfering to their property that could affect the dogs and puppies. How smart was that?! We love scout so much and wouldn't trade him for anything. looking forward to in a few years getting another from Mt. Hood Pomskies again and getting Scout a buddy! Thank you again!

After months of research I thought I had found the perfect dog but I was mistaken. Don't let the…read morePomsky description fool you. We've had two Poms. If there is Pomeranian in this bloodline it's well hidden. Who would have ever thought a 9 lb, 4 month old puppy could be so strong? This breeder favors the husky characteristics. The puppy's energy level was astounding, she was always "on" and she could drag me out the door and across the yard when we went out to potty. We had our "perfect puppy" for 3 weeks, watched YouTube videos, read books, took her to classes, talked with the breeder and read books but she was too much for us and our poor kitty. We loved her immensely but knew she was not the puppy for us. We returned her per the contract. We would have loved to have her when she was older and had some basic leash and leave it training, we still would. Or one of the 5 lb Pomskies, but size is not guaranteed. Take your time finding the right dog. Read your contact carefully - they are serious. We got $0 of our $2,000 refunded. Our hearts and finances are still recovering.

This is such a special place- you can tell how much the staff and volunteers love CAT. When we…read morecame to CAT everyone was warm and welcoming. We got there about 20 mins before opening and were first in line. The one main suggestion I have is that there be a space/room where you can interact with the potential pet you want to adopt. It was hard trying to hold the kitten and not let her on the ground to play/interact with her. The staff were great with answering questions. Second suggestion would be to give out numbers when people walk in so there is some order. It was a little chaotic since we were there for a kitten and there were other potential cat owners that were being a little aggressive about trying to push past us when we were walking upstairs to see the kittens and trying to claim the kitten they wanted that they saw online. Luckily for us it wasn't the same kitten my daughter was there to meet. Once again this wasn't CAT's fault, but wish there was maybe a more structured way to avoid these types of interactions to happen. It was a little jarring to say the least. Pushing past 2 adults and 2 kids could have made any of us fall down the stairs. They weren't even second in line so that means they were pushing past several people to "be first". The staff does a great job walking you through the adoption process. We were given a complimentary first vet check-up waiver (which was honored by our vet). We were also given a bag of food to take home that our kitten was used to eating. We didn't have a carrier and we were able to purchase a carrier box for $8.00. Also they some times have more pets for potential adoption than what is showing online. If they come in later in the day or early morning these cats may not be on their website yet. Overall our experience was wonderful (minus the overly aggressive woman who was screaming and trying to race us upstairs). You can tell the staff love their jobs, made the adoption process easy and appreciated all the information they shared throughout the adoption process.
