Beware of this shelter! They process all your paperwork stating "no refunds" prior to disclosing that the animal is chronically ill and handing you the animal with the medication. I adopted a kitten that was four months old three weeks ago. They made me sign everything and ran my credit card for $140.00 in fees to adopt him. An hour later, they brought him out with eye medication and a medical record that ran for two pages of problems he has had since April. I have been giving him medication in his eye on a daily basis to no avail and he is still in pain and sick.
They make a point of telling you, you must return the animal to them as they still retain ownership. I sadly brought him back today as I could not afford daily medication. I feel they were not honest and did not disclose his medical problems which have been rampant since April. I adopted him n August 10th. This has caused me great heartache. When I returned him, everyone there knew his name and recognized him which was eerily creepy and made me feel like he has been returned before. Because he is so cute, they keep adopting him out and collecting $140 each time. He was already neutered and had his shots but they said I would have to pay for them as they were "included in the adoption process."
How many people have paid for his spaying and shots by now? I feel he is a money maker for them and I was tricked into signing the contract without seeing his medical records and problems. I would be very careful with this agency as I feel like they were not honest with me. I live on a fixed income and was looking for a companion animal. What I received was a very sick animal who required daily medication and daily care for his illness. I have had a cat before who was never sick as a kitten. This kitten would require extensive veterinary care that is very costly. I feel the shelter should make sure the animal is healthy when it is offered for adoption and not use the cute sick animals as money makers. It is disgraceful!
