Furkids

Not a bad place to adopt a pet. The animals appear to be very well treated. The facility is also clean and well run. The volunteers are also very friendly and appear to be passionate about the animals and agency as a whole.

I adopted two cats from Furkids a year ago and they are great pets. The organization does a good job of matching it's pets with individuals looking to adopt. Furkids relies heavily on volunteers and donations; based on that they did a super job during my adoption and I would highly recommend adopting from them.

I'm all for rescue organizations. I think adopting a pet is the only way to go when obtaining your new friend. But I would not choose to go with Furkids. Their organization is poorly run, they have very biased regulations surrounding their adoptions and if you question anything they do or about the adoption, you see a very ugly side of the people running the organization. I asked a question about how the process worked and got a call back from the woman in charge. She was unquestionably rude and flat out disrespectful.

Do yourself a favor and go over to Petfinder and find a different group to adopt a cat from. Furkids is not worth it.

I had a bad experience with FurKids. They were unprofessional. They lead me to believe that I was being considered to adopt a cat and then the cat was given to someone else. I had interviewed for my cat of interest and was told that we would continue the interview at another time. I was never contacted and told the cat was given to another person. I had to find out from the place of adoption. I called and left a message with the person who interviewed me and with FurKids. I never received a return phone call.

Furkids is a no-kill, no-cage rescue for cats. One of the FEW none depressing shelters in the state. They only adopt out a cat or kitten after it has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on all appropriate shots and has had any medical needs met. As an example, a cat needed surgery on her hip. $3,000 later she is roaming around the shelter office as she recovers and then will be eligible for adoption. There are a couple of "medical"or isolation rooms and the animals there are in cages. But only for the safety of themselves and the other cats. When well they will join the general population. The healthy, adoptable cats are divided up between @ 9 other large rooms where there are toys, cat trees for climbing, and comfortable cat beds for snoozing. Potential adopters can visit the cats in the rooms, hold them, play with them and decide which is the perfect cat for their situation. Volunteers will answer questions and give suggestions as to which might be the best adoption choice. They also have adoption centers at several PetSmart stores. They are my first choice for any charitible donations I can make. It is also a place I volunteer my time. They have helped me capture several feral cats near my home. They were vetted, and were either placed with a family or are waiting for adoption. If all shelters (for both dogs and cats) could be run like Furkids the lives of many animals would be so much better.
