She was able to squeeze in my group of 3 and make our day. We spent the afternoon getting to know the kitties and the staff (both are amazing!!) and it was a perfect day. I cannot recommend this place enough. The experience was one of a kind and something we won't forget anytime soon.

My husband and I visited this wonderful cat sanctuary during our visit to Maui! We had not set up…read morean appointment online, which is recommended, but we lucked out that the owner, Linda, was not busy at the time. There are so many cats here that are friendly and want to play! There is an adoption room where you can interact with the cats and see if you get along with them to adopt any. One cat is so funny, it loves to jump on your back! There is also a room where the kittens and rehab cats are separated from the rest of the cats to keep them healing and on the road to recovery. Linda gave us a tour of the grounds as well where there are even more cats to roam free outside where they get plenty of food and water. I am posting plenty of photos so you can see how well the cats are taken care of here and all the hard work that the owner puts in to the sanctuary and the cats!

I've shopped at Habitat For Humanity Restore Shop several times. If they have what your looking…read morefor, you can score big time because their prices are very reasonable. My most recent purchase there was a floor lamp with ceramic pole. I had to replace the lamp socket on it but still a good deal. That's probably why it was donated. Anyway, they usually have a good assortment of light fixtures, tables, chairs and small appliances. The sort of stuff that people upgrade from time to time. They also are a good source of building materials that are left over from jobs the contractors finish. It's hit or miss whether you find the type or quantity of materials you need, but it's still a good place to check if you're about to start a project. We were there recently, to drop off a couple boxes of floor tile and some used copper tubing. I hope someone can use it. There's a small parking lot beside the building. Be really careful there because you might not have much time to react when someone backs out without looking. I had to use my horn, first time in years!

We brought his nephew along and found some decent things for his apartment - a mid century side table for $50. They had so many huge furniture decor pieces and prices were pretty reasonable.

Definitely check this place out if you are looking for furniture and/or home decor on the island.

When you enter you might want to turn around and leave when you see all the racks with boxes but continue on. The craft area is loaded with all kinds of fabric, beads, stamps and more. There is also a large kids area that is well organized. I ran out of time but the adult clothing was downstairs with much of it $1. Lots to see and purchase at great prices. My only contacts with staff was in the craft area (enjoyed talking to her) and the checkout lady. Both very friendly and helpful. Lots of parking. Well worth the time.

The move to the new location (reportedly cause the old location and the auditorium above it will be…read moredemolished) has brought good and bad. Good means that there is more room to move around. Your not having people trying to squeeze behind you or fighting for space cause there is 15 women fighting over the kids clothes while all you want to get to is the last three piles of mens clothing and it's right beside the kids clothes. This is a big improvement. The move to the new location unfortunately took away one of the best things about this thrift store that was never replicated at other places: Early Morning Cheap Junk for Pennies on the Dollar. Now, given the surrounding area, Upcountry is Farm/Ranch Land, and these areas means that there is a garage or barn or shed with old junk in it. And once in a while, people will clean it out, and sometimes will "unceremoniously" dump it at St Joseph. The ladies there would have to sort out the good from the bad, and I guess to maximize the effort, would price anything that was sellable outside before the place opened at 8AM. And it was a real crapshoot and a surprise what got donated. Sometimes, you'd find a great deal, other times you'd find something fixable,or broken items that you could utilize for other uses. Depending on what was there, I would walk off with anywhere from $1.00 to $40 of stuff before the doors opened. I guess now with the move, they can't continue with this practice, and anything that could be saved even though it's junk is sent straight to the dumpster. Mixed on this.

Private schools mean you PAY for lil' junior's education. So...if you are unhappy, by all means there are public schools who, since I teach at them I can say with complete certainty, will take EVERY kind of student. If you desire a specified educational experience- which, since I am currently enjoying the second of my three children at Carden for middle school, I can also say with first-hand experience - then you pay for it. Fish or cut bait. This school is loving, caring, kind, nurturing, and everything you pay for. Sorry some people want something for nothing. Public schools have been fine for my kids; Carden is a gift.
