!!! URGENT - PSA - what's going on here (witnessed today 7/27/2025) ANIMAL NEGLECT !!!…read more I always strive to write positive reviews whenever possible, especially for non-profits & organizations that aim to help animals.. However, I visited this "rescue" today with my children, and I was absolutely appalled at what we saw! Wish I could give zero stars. Where do I begin.... For one- as soon as we stepped foot inside, we had to literally hold our breaths from the stench. The place is filthy-there is urine and fecal matter everywhere. And it only got worse as we walked around.. It's so overcrowded with way too many cats sharing small spaces. There is an obvious lack of necessary supplies like water and food -the cats are so skinny and clearly malnourished. The dogs don't appear healthy either and there are at least two sharing each cage, surrounded by urine and feces also. We felt so sorry for these poor animals and our hearts were breaking! :( One woman working there came to greet us. The other few staff/volunteers were either sitting down looking at their phones or in the back not helping. I wish these animals could all find loving homes, of course, but until then, it is the job of the shelter to properly care for them. The "United For Animals Rescue" is understaffed, under-equipped, and clearly do NOT genuinely care about the health and well-being of these needy animals! It's so very sad. I should have taken pictures, but the odor was so unbearable that we just wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible. All the positive reviews are from years ago. We have visited there in the past, and I remember it used to be great. I don't know why or how it got so bad there, but something needs to be done IMMEDIATELY PLEASE to prevent these and any more helpless animals from suffering any longer!!! **HOW DO I FILE A REPORT FOR SOMETHING LIKE THIS?!?**

I had never been to an animal shelter before. I didn't know what to expect, so I was a bit nervous…read more The facilities here are modern and clean. You sign in at the front desk and then freely roam to look at animals. I didn't explore the dog areas, but there are several areas of cats, separated by fosters, kittens fresh from getting spayed/neutered, and older cats. Beware: you will want to take all of them home. There wasn't that many people there when I went, so I was able to spend a lot of time getting to know the kitties. I fell in love with a little tortie, but was worried when I saw that she had enlarged mammary glands (her lil tummy was shaved from her recent spaying). A worker in the cat room went above and beyond to help. She explained that the cat had probably recently had a litter and her milk hadn't dried up yet. But, just to make sure, without me even asking, she took the kitty back to get examined by their doctor. After confirming what I had been told, I scooped up that lil girl and adopted her ASAP. The adoption process was easy. Just a head's up: if the address on your ID is different than your current address, bring another thing with your current address on it (I used my car registration). When I went, the shelter had a promotion going on, sponsored by the Bissell Pet Foundation, so the adoption was free. Plus spaying/neutering, Broward County pet registration tag, microchip, and all necessary vaccinations​​​​ are always included here when you adopt. I also got a cute "Gotcha Day" certificate and a free cardboard "cat-eau" :D Overall, I had a great experience adopting a new kitty from Broward County Animal Care and highly recommend that you check them out if you're looking for a new animal baby :)

Sketchy place and the worst people, so cold and heartless…read more We came in looking for our lost cat. On the first attempt, they were closed because of a meeting, so we couldn't talk to anyone. The security guard told us to come back another day through the closed gate and mentioned there's a lost pet binder. On our second visit, we parked in front and lost and found, and there was a sign saying to stay in your car. After we arrived, there was a couple who found a tiny orange kitten and tried to surrender it, so they got out of the car. The security guard yelled at them to get back in the car. They asked why, and he snapped, "Can't you read the sign" while pointing to it. They asked why again, and he didn't answer, but just ignored them. We waited for the lady to come to our car window. She asked if our cat was ours or a community cat, when we lost him, and what he looked like. We said he was a tabby, and she rolled her eyes, saying the majority are tabbies and we're probably not going to find him. We asked to come in and look, and she said no. We asked how long they keep the animals. She said usually 24 hours, even though they're supposed to keep them for 72 hours, they usually don't. We asked why. She said too many. I asked what happens to them. She said they take the address where they're found when they come in, and they release them to the same address. To me, that seems unbelievable if someone is bringing in a stray cat or lost pet, that they would just put them back out on the street. What's the point? I asked if they euthanize animals. That's when she said yes, in those 24-72 hours, if the animal is sick or can't be saved, they will put them down. I asked how it's determined, and she didn't say. We asked again to try to find our cat, and she said there's no point. I asked about the binder with pictures that the security guard told us about the first time around. She didn't want to let us see. She said the pictures are tiny and hard to see, and that it's a huge binder. We said we drove all this way that we wanted to see. She said they distribute the pets to various animal control facilities, so he could be anywhere. We insisted, so she brought the binder to the car. We did not find JJ. The security guard just grabbed the binder back from us and didn't say a word. The main lady was rude to the couple with the orange kitten. We left before we saw the outcome, but it looked like she refused to take it and gave them a pamphlet. They're better off taking it to the humane society. There was a 3rd employee in a grey shirt, along with the lady in the blue shirt and the security guard. They all made faces, rolled eyes, used huge gestures, and had terrible attitudes. I'm not sure what their problems are, but they shouldn't be working in customer service, let alone a tough job like this one that requires sensitivity. The whole thing was really shady.

I'm extremely disappointed with the care my cat Mia received at this hospital. Back in September,…read moreMia was clearly showing signs of kidney disease. I brought her in, and the staff agreed she was showing symptoms serious enough to require hospitalization. She was admitted for 7 days on IV fluids, costing me over $1,500. After those treatments, I was told that she was "fine," no longer showing signs of kidney disease, and that she didn't even need to be placed on a kidney-support diet or continue special monitoring. Trusting their professional opinion, I followed their guidance. Over the following months, Mia continued showing symptoms that concerned me, which eventually led me to bring her back in. When I reviewed the new test results with Dr. Chamberlain, I explained my concerns about previously being told Mia was fine. Dr. Chamberlain ended up giving me a discount on Mia's next hospitalization because of what happened, which made me feel that even the clinic recognized mistakes had been made in how her condition was handled. Even with the discount, I still paid over $800 for another 3-day hospitalization. It has been heartbreaking and incredibly frustrating to go through this after previously being reassured everything was resolved. On top of that, the financial practices at this clinic added even more stress during an already difficult situation. Medications were heavily marked up, there were additional credit card fees, and I was encouraged to pay for a $350 membership/plan just to receive "discounts" for treatment related to a chronic illness. Even then, the discounts were not automatically applied correctly. On more than one occasion, I had to catch billing mistakes myself and request refunds after being incorrectly charged. Not to mention added fees if you put prescriptions thru chewy. Communication throughout this process was also inconsistent. While some of the front desk staff were kind and helpful, I was given incorrect information on multiple occasions, which only added more confusion and stress during Mia's treatment. Caring for a sick pet is emotionally and financially exhausting. Pet owners deserve transparency, accurate medical guidance, consistent communication, and proactive care. I strongly encourage anyone dealing with a chronic condition in their pet to seek second option and carefully review all lab work and recommendations for themselves.
