Caring for Creatures truly cares about their animals. As someone who has worked there and seen…read moreinside the business, the biggest goal of this non profit is to care for the animals and give them the best lives that they can. They truly care about each and every single one of them. If you're looking for a place to adopt an animal, caring for creatures is the place to go. They are all great people.

What a wonderful place!…read more My son inspired me to write a review for Caring for Creatures. It has been two full years since he set foot on the property, but can still give details regarding the time we spent volunteering for this organization. Mary and her amazing staff run a tight ship, putting the care of a few hundred animals first in their lives. The facility is clean and cheerful, and there is no sadness seen in the eyes of the many many creatures that call this facility home. Dogs are kept one to two to a fenced run, and are walked daily by a long list of paid staff and volunteers. Cats are kept in two separate buildings, according to need. They have fewer volunteers, but those that come can easily find themselves buried in one kitty pile after another while grooming and socializing the cat population. Caring for Creatures is a no kill shelter, and they work hard to find the perfect adoptive families for their animal charges. We knew quite a few families who had adopted from CfC, and all sang Mary's praises. If you have some spare time or money, a donation to Caring for Creatures would be a fine way to spend what you can. They are a deserving organization.

These people take in stray dogs, abused dogs and give them love, medical care, whatever they need…read more I got the love of my life from them & my daughter went with me to pick him up and ended up getting her boy there also. There are so many wonderful dogs without homes that one need not buy a purebred. These dogs are so grateful and have so much love to give. My boy died Jan.2018. I have a huge hole in my heart, that will never be filled.

My wife and I visited the Rappahannock Animal Welfare League Shelter in Staunton last week and we…read morewere impressed with the facility and in particular, the staff members which assisted us. We had made an appointment to look at a particular dog, but decided against adopting him.. Instead, we adopted a wee girl, Sandra, who was just over three months old.....We were allowed to "introduce" our German Shepherd (both a "mix" and a "rescue") to "Sandra" and the lady who was assisting us was patient and helpful to us, as the two dogs were introduced. Some folks don't seem to know that dogs may react positively or negatively when first introduced......it takes a bit of time to do it properly. We are pleased to say that In only a week, "Sandra", who is now "Jo-Jo" has adapted very well to our home and has become great friends and playmates with "Hailie", the German Shepherd. Many thanks to the folks at RAWL for assisting in making our adoption possible. We are greatly pleased with RAWL and their dedicated staff! R & R Bennett

I absolutely love the cville SPCA. We have had a few problems, mostly relating to the poor foster…read moreteam being completely slammed and overworked which is not their fault at all. Just know that they have a lot of people to help, and patience goes a long way! Here are three areas I will comment on: Fostering: The people who work here are very knowledgeable and care about their animals, and the cat were fostering right now is a total gem. Fostering is totally free, and they provide all the materials you need. They don't allow you to meet the animals ahead of time, so definitely be intuitive reading the foster board. Please look at the medical fosters too! Many of them ar totally healthy, like our cat, and are recovering from minor non contagious issues. The one we have is totally friendly and a great cat. Strays: I brought in one a couple months ago and the spca was able to microchip and check him to see if he was neutered. I brought in a second stray yesterday morning and called to check on him and the worker was so personable and we had a long conversation about his health. I was concerned they would be bothered with me calling to check but was surprised to find the total opposite. ALSO - they have pens in the back specifically for anonymous dumps. I absolutely hate when people drop cats off (I live in the city of cville so it happens all the time), but PLEASE take them to the spca instead. You can do so anonymously but it's so much more humane than leaving them on the street. Adoptions: the prices are really reasonable, and while I haven't adopted (yet), I know fostering is a great way to transition into adoption. I'm not sure theyre doing meets with the animals because of covid, but fostering is a free way to see if the animal fits in your house and you can adopt at any time. Overall, I love the SPCA and would always get a dog or cat from here rather than a breeder.

If it's a problem that may not look good on the spreadsheet they are not going to help. even though…read morefrom what I've been told they are receiving funds from the county government!
