They are a God send. My grandmother died and had 21 cats that kept having kittens. They offered to bring out traps to help me catch the cats. Once the cats were caught They took them all to be spayed and neutered and then brought them back. On top of that, I told them I could not care for 21 cats plus my 2 dogs. So they offered to help me with pet food pantry assistance. Once a month I would call them and request help and then on the first Wednesday of the month I would be called to come pick it up and they'd usually give me 2 or 3 bags of dog and cat food, 20 to 40lb bags, a box or a couple bags of canned food, some treats, and toys, collars, leashes, or sprays/soaps if needed.

They truly have been wonderful, and without their help, I honestly would have been lost and in a lot of trouble trying to feed everything while dealing with several litters of kittens a year.

They are always very rude and appear so eager to help on social media but when contacted, their responses are hypocritical. It's sad.

We adopted a cat named Nutmeg a few months ago there. The Humane Society was really great in the way they handled the adoption. Nutmeg is an awesome cat and a perfect fit for us. We love her very much. Thank you to the Humane Society!

They are very helpful, very busy, and lots of animals always in their care to choose from. If more people would consider taking in some of these animals or foster some. Help to give them time away and a chance to have a better life. This shelter is very nice, but it is still hard for the animals to not have a home. Please remember to chip, spay/neuter, foster, or adopt your animals from shelters.

They don't respond to online applications.
Visited in person with my whole family due to seeing a dog online in which we were interested.
While we didn't have time that day to stay and go through the application process, we did see that the same dog was still available online a couple of days later. So we filled out an application and waited. Nothing. Not even as much as a thank you for your interest.... eventually, we see this particular dog is no longer available. Still nothing.
If you had/have a director of patron experience, you would reach out with a follow-up. Maybe try to figure out what piqued our interest in this particular animal and try to match us with another. We did eventually receive an email after 3 weeks or so.

Such a wonderful place. Helped me a lot with dog food and cat food. They care so much about your pets and are willing to help as much as possible.

Absolutely zero help whatsoever, and I thought that was what they were there for..to help with strays/rescues, etc.
I emailed multiple people, because I was desperate and only got rude responses. I'll never support this organization again.

My boyfriend and I tried adopting from here. I had my
landlord’s information wrong so I called back to fix it. They got all suspicious about it and even called my landlord and said “James?” When they have his name. They called my landlord and got his approval. They went through all of that trouble just to call me back and say “we’re denying your application because you said the dog would be out on a lead.” Me and my boyfriend never once said that. We think they had underlying reasons. They also treat the animals inhumanly and I heard they kill animals. It’s disgusting. Moral of the story, never adopt from here. Adopt from somewhere that actually cares about their animals, how they’re treated, and where they go.
