Ridiculous to put animals in need of adoption in a public store so you can see them and help by opening your home and then be given the run around when adoption time comes. Others were in Petco speaking to the wonderful volunteer who was caring for the cats and said the same thing: they couldn't get anyone to contact them back. Having seen many cats there and speaking to the volunteers who had nothing but praise for the shelter and adoption process, we finally put in an application for a cat we thought would fit our home well. After 2 weeks of back and forth, numerous times of emailing them vet references, etc., they stopped communicating only to finallly answer and tell me the vet said they never had me as a client which is a lie!!! I even spoke to one of 2 vets I provided who were expecting their call and never received it! The volunteers had told me that the shelter was really great at picking out great homes. Apparently not! Cats I had seen there and were told had many adoption apps are still sitting in cages at Petco. It kills me that these people care ZERO about these animals and are the reason that they are still without families and risk being euthanized or spending their lives in a shelter. Shameful.

My story is very much like many of the others. Was told everything was good did not see any problems. Called to make arrangements for pickup and was informed the "board chose not to adopt to me". Made me feel like a secondary human. I think it is a power trip for some of the "board". By the way we were denied for the exact reason that we explained and answered for previously. Not a good place to deal with. Very demeaning. I wonder when they were going to let us know, or were they. Not professional in any way. Avoid at all cost. You may want rethink if you are planning on donating to them.

I applied to adopt a cat. I literally went and visited the cat every day for two weeks. Went through adoption application and was told my reference numbers were wrong so I immediately wrote them back and in that short time they told me that the cat was magically adopted. I wrote them and said please keep me posted if it falls through. I still go every day and the cat is still there with no “I’m adopted” sign yet the cat above him (Princess) has a sign on her cage. I wrote them and asked if they were sure they had the correct cat I was asking about… no response. Begged them to respond. Still no response. Instead of LYING and denying one of your animals a warm, loving home, you let it rot in that cage. I will continue to go see Oreo every day since I truly loved and wanted him and would have given him a beautiful life. We have kids and other friendly animals he would have loved. Since they don’t seem to care about their animals, I will continue to go give the poor cat some love. I wrote them and told them they could have just been honest if there was some reason they didn’t want me to adopt him. But of course, no response. And the responses I got were very short and bland. No feeling behind them at all. They don’t care. Clearly. Praying Oreo finds a good home. Shame on you guys. Absolutely no need to lie to me… all I’m trying to do is give the animal they put up for adoption to a good home. Myself being adopted, that mattered to me a lot.

Was very disappointed. Had looked online to see what dogs were available for adoption and found one that was of interest to me. The website stated that the Humane Society would be open from 12:00-5:00 on Saturday. Arrived during the hours specified finding the gate all locked with cars inside the gated area. Made a phone call to them. The person answering stated they were closed. I inquired as to why when their website stated they were open. The same person stated that I must complete an application on line, at which time they will review and schedule an appointment for me to see the animal. The person said they are closed due to Covid, but that no one has Covid, but it's still for a precaution.Found this exchange not very user friendly for anyone wishing to adopt one of the rescue pets in this facility.We had lost our beloved pet 3 months ago, so I was not in any frame of mind for this excuse as everything is open.

Very smooth adoption process. We adopted a 2 year old diluted tortie female my wife and I saw in Petco Washington PA. Check out kitties there or on their website. Very responsive when contacted by phone or email.

countless people, including myself have been trying to properly get ahold of them for weeks about an animal abuse and neglect situation but they have done nothing but decline calls, block people, and overall do everything in their power to keep this animal in an abusive environment. they're an awful society and need to take action on this case immediately.

Does not respond to reports of animal abuse and neglect. Has been very short and rude with anyone who tries, but still refuses to take any action in the situation. Absolutely disgusting.Having to write a bad review because it seems like that's the only thing any of these kinds of places will respond to.

good luck trying to adopt if you have no use of a vet or anything...they are very picky about who they let adopt to...and if your disabled or on disability forget about it...they will deny you in a heartbeat...

I have had two applications that I filled out very professionaly about a month ago and still did not receive a call. Place is bull and how are you going to have a vet reference if you never had before a dog or a cat. Super judgy people work here. You wonder why people go through a breeder.

We love our new kittens. They are the perfect addition to our family. Great experience with adopting them.
