I came to this facility looking for a sweet animal to adopt and I was not disappointed. The staff here was so incredibly nice and answered all questions I had. I adopted “Peabody” and he is the sweetest boy ever.

I went to drop off an injured cat and the staff were very helpful. They weren't doing intakes at the time but still managed to take the cat since it was a previous SNR. I was updated after the fact and was let know the cat was adopted!
