Tim Popma: With having a number of things, from having to put down few dogs in the past few yrs, we decided to to donate our good used things to the Animal Shelter. As well as some new things we decided to pick up. They are always in need of things to help the pets in their facility.

Joy Putnam: I really didn't like that you couldn't walk through to look at the animals. You now have to read a description about them on a 3x5 card and then ask to see the one(s) you'd like a closer look at. Very time-consuming. By walking through you get a sense of an animal before you meet with them. I was told that it's so the dogs in this case don't get all worked up with people walking through. But when I was there, there were at least 5 workers going in and out of the kennels which had they same effect as if I went through. I really don't see the difference. I met with one dog that, if I had seen in the kennel, I would have k ow wasn't right. I didn't meet with any others after that because I was so frustrated. I may go back because I know so many good animals need loving homes, I'd hate to have one miss out because of the humans running the place.

Josepha Ali: I as well as others have contacted Kent County NUMEROUS times about 2 dogs who are left OUTSIDE every day ALL day @ Wolven Ave. Rockford,Mi.These dogs are left out IN BELOW FREEZING TEMPS. ALL WINTER & in the rain SOAKING WET!!!! NOT ONCE has kent County responded! These dogs Can NOT ASK FOR HELP!! Are pleas are going unheard! These dogs are being NEGLECTED! THIS IS CRUEL! Tell those owners to go outside with no coat, Nothing in below freezing weather or the rain all day see if they like it! How about ALL THE PEOPLE WHO ARE DOING NOTHING @KENT COUNTY ANIMAL CONTROL/SHELTER GO OUTSIDE, YOU & YOUR KIDS WITH NO COATS IN BELOW FREEZING WEATHER TRY it! Oh wait you wouldn't let your kids go outside in freezing,raining weather, but the animals its okay?!! GTFOH DO SOMETHING!!!

Jordan Crisman: So kind and loving to the animals and they care for them.

Nancy Gilbert: They help so many animals and find them homes. Thank you guys for what you do.

Tanya M. Gonzales: Friendly and kind

Chris Meyer: Brought hook home today. Very playful and loving cat. Has already made himself at home. Shelter did good job with getting the cats ready for adoption and the necessary paperwork for future vet visits.

Tammy Oaks: They are VERY KIND and wonderful 😊😊😊😊 people there....

ian zachary: I owned for 7 years was aggressive out of the blue while being told no snapped at me and tried to bite me. When I called about euthanasia the advice I was given by the animal control people was that my dog was just guarding resources or scared this is the stupidest most ridiculous thing I have ever heard as advice. it is an aggressive dog it should be questioned thanks so much for your help.

Danielle Smith: Lots of activity going on there. Saw some playful cats and 2 dogs were being adopted. Yay!!

Greg Hobart: Great place and excellent and caring staff.

Robyn Wolters: My daughter decided to adopt a rescue. This was our 3rd visit to find a dog. After 3 meet and greets, she found the love of her life!

Sandra Toombs: Wonderful staff and I see them all really trying to help the animals feel safe and loved.

Jeri Landheer: Went to the Kitten Shower and they did a fantastic job. The place is clean and the animals well cared for. The staff were so kind! I recommend adopting a new family pet through them! You won't be disappointed....🐾

Terry Hickerty: Love they are a no kill shelter and have great staff. Just adopted a puppy they called Betty over the weekend. She inserted herself into the family like she always been here and claimed everything in the house as hers when she decides to wake up

K Rosas: Everyone was very kind, from the people at the reception desk, to the person who introduced us to the little dog we were interested in , to the two people who sent her home with us. The facility is large, clean, welcoming, the animals are well taken care of, and the staff does their very best to present the animals at their most appealing. Ours was a terrific experience.

Deanna T: Staff was awesome. We came in on a Saturday right before close to pick up a dog with high anxiety. The staff stayed past closing to make sure our dog was going to be okay with Loki ( formerly Seth.) They came outside and gave us amazing and helpful suggestions. Beautiful facility. Thank You for all you do for theses fur babies ❤️

Nolan Osgood: Staff is always super friendly and helpful, they truly care about the animals they have and it shows. I got my cat Luna here around Christmas time a year ago as a kitten and she brought me nothing but happiness. I often come here just to look and see what fur babies they have just in case I can let friends and family know so they can be adopted to loving homes.

Cheryl Zang: Great experience, if we're ever looking for a pet this is a good place to start.

Susan Swan Tagg: Nice resource for the West Michigan community.

silverfox silverfox: Fast, efficient, polite, kind family of employees ♥️Still deciding if I want responsibility of a pet....

Julie Hauri-Foster: We were donating dog things. Very impressed. Nice place, nice people.

Diane Lanesky: Have to make appt

billie mccurry: Critical:Professionalism,Quality,Reliability,Responsiveness,Value

d nash: Great staff

Shelby Denhof: I have adopted both of my cats here. The staff is helpful and friendly and I could tell my soon-to-be pets were well taken care of during their time here.

Amanda Brinks: My first time coming here as I needed a little help with some cat food. Never realized how big their facility really is! While I was there, I was able to walk around and see all the adoptable fur babies. There's so many that all deserve amazing homes

Robert and Barbara Smith: My granddaughter helped me find a young cat to keep me company. It took her a couple of days to come out of hiding to get to know me and her new home. Now she's my cuddle-buddy. The name "Raya", didn't feel right, so now I call her Sweet Pea.

Penny Patterson: The adoption went very smooth. Appreciate all the work done by Michele’s Rescue and the foster family!

Nicole French: Such a great adoption experience - they provided all the vaccinations and spayed our little one and got her microchipped before we took her home. Very friendly foster home too. Thanks for the sweet fuzzy nugget. We got her a friend to play with. 😍

Patricia Orcasitas: Michelle’s Rescue worked so well for us, and we are so blessed to have “Sugar Bear” as part of our family. When it comes time to adopt our next fur kid, we definitely plan to go to them again. Loving this puppy love !!!

Cheryl Howard: Michele’s rescue makes the process of adopting so easy. Their approval process is thorough but, but efficient. They respond to questions quickly via email and are very helpful throughout the adoption.

Roberta Atkins: Drake and I are still adjusting to each other. He is relaxing more and more each day.

Eric Steindler: Our experience was fantastic and we're enjoying our two new family members!

Brian E: I had a great experience with Michele’s Rescue. They did a great job and or organizing the events and offering some free goodies for the new puppy. They are doing great work for animals in need. I would highly recommend them.

Diane Davidson: I adopted two kittens from Michelle’s Rescue. It has been a wonderful experience!! They worked with me to get the perfect kitties! I absolutely love them💕.

Charissa Velazquez: Very easy to work with and the process was seamless.

brianna lewis: Everyone is truly nice and helpful they truly care!

William Lyons: She said in another response that we said we had an appointment. We never said that. An employee said to follow her inside, which I did. The website doesn't state anything about being her personal home. She immediately started yelling at my family and me for leaving her door open. I was just letting them in behind me when we were asked to follow said employee. This person is extremely unpleasant to deal with. We are animal lovers, and I've typically found people like us to be kind and welcoming. I would advise against having any interactions with Michele.*response to last entry-I was asked if I was there for a pickup. I stated that I wasn't. I feel the one star review was completely warranted. After being instructed to follow you inside, I patiently waited at the top of the stairs with my family in tow, only to hear "No no no no! We don't do adoptions. Can you close my door!" We were simply following Google which said you were an animal rescue, which lead us to believe you offered pet adoptions. We just wanted to give a dog a new home, and we were treated like we were barging into someone's house, after being invited. If we had been told otherwise beforehand we would have simply gotten in our car and left. We are nothing of not respectful, and did not deserve the treatment we received. Maybe you were just having a bad day, but the way you described how things went down is an outright lie. I was completely honest about why we were there, and didn't barge into the house. I was instructed to follow, so that is what I did. This was clearly a big misunderstanding, and you could have explained that to my wife, children, and myself with kindness, instead you chose to treat us like trespassers, and bad people. Clearly you aren't skilled at dealing with the general public. Perhaps you should state more clearly the nature of your business online so people can steer clear of your home.

Ellen Mancino: Re: The one star review posted by Olivia McBrideI am the volunteer your husband initially talked to. I apologize - I thought your husband was there to pick up one of the 9 puppies I had just transported to Michele’s home. When he said he hoped to adopt I interpreted that as our “foster to adopt” program, thus I asked him to wait by the door while I grabbed Michele. We are completely volunteer based and I don’t know everyone - so I pulled Michele away from bathing poo-covered puppies to help him. She tried to explained the rescue is foster based, this was her personal home…and then she asked him to close the door (that’s how pets escape). There was no yelling. Your family simply walked back to your vehicle when she tried to talk to you about checking out the available animals on our website and filling out an application.I honestly don’t see what the fuss is about; but it’s certainly not worth a one star bashing review of a 501(c) that we volunteers donate our time, energy and hearts to, on top of balancing work, home and family. Anyone who has spent any time with Michele knows this is her livelihood and there isn’t anyone better in animal rescue in SW Michigan.

Olivia McBride: There was a miscommunication on the website so we showed up in hopes to find a home for a new dog. This woman was incredibly rude, she was yelling at our family within seconds of us arriving. We explained the situation and her attitude didn’t get any better. I would strongly not recommend working with this business.

Melissa Corbeil: So great to work with! Got to bring my fur baby home this morning. They were super responsive and truly just want what's best for the animals. If your thinking of adopting through a rescue definitely give them a shout!

Anna Hagstrom: We had the best experience adopting our puppy with Michelle’s Rescue! Very professional and personable.

Makayla Babson: Over the phone, Valeria was completely lovely and helpful, she helped me understand the adoption process and seemed like she really cared about me adopting a kitten.Although when I went to pet smart to adopt my kitten, after my application had been completely approved and I had an appointment to meet a couple different kittens, the experience was not as great. I asked to hold the kitten I was interested in and Pat basically told me that no I couldnt because that wouldnt change who I wanted to adopt... ok so I never even got to pet the kitten I chose before I adopted him. Then after I had picked the kitten I wanted to adopt I just felt completely uncomfortable and judged by Pat while we were signing the contract. She was questioning if my cat was fixed and vaccinated... well hello, Micheles rescue has to call your vet and make sure of these things before you are even approved for adoption. I dont know if she was not having a great day or if she was looking down on me because I am a young adult.I wasnt exactly planning on adopting that day but the timing just worked out so I didnt have my cat carrier with me, I borrowed my brothers small black cage to be able to bring the kitten home with me which he has used for his cat many times before so I didnt think it was a problem but Pat was so displeased and judgemental that this is what I was going to transport my pet in that she told me she wanted me to borrow one of their cat carriers to bring my cat home and then turn around and bring it back, even after I offered to just buy one of their adoption boxes.I did not enjoy this part of the adoption. I almost felt like I shouldnt have been adopting. I had my whole lengthy application approved, they called my vet, I provided receipts from getting my current cat neutered, I provided an ESA letter. I paid $150!! I wouldnt go through all of these steps if this wasnt a cat that I was going to love and take great care of.I want to say I appreciate what Micheles rescue does, I am so glad I got to adopt from there. Communication was great at first, I dont even mind the length of the application but because of this one individual im not sure if I would adopt from there again in the future.

Dyes Dcy: Very Unprofessional.

Kristin Dennison: Do not under any circumstances give money to this rescue! The people running this are horrible. They are not doing what's best for the animals. They are playing God. Go elsewhere to adopt pets and donate money! They are crazy. We do take our cat to the vet. Our 16.5 year old dog who recently passed was vaccinated regularly. We did not threaten any staff members. Holy cow you're crazy!

Maureen Rice: Thank you Michele’s Rescue for bringing an amazing rescue puppy into my life. He’s a gem and their adoption process went very smooth.

Jennifer Boelema: Dr Jen is theeeee best! All of her heart and soul she pours in to helping these kitties. I very much enjoy spending time with the kitties. If I could adopt them all, they'd go he with me tomorrow! If you are in ever in the hunt for an amazing cat, these cats have some of the cutest personalities! Always adopt, don't shop! Help the world. Save a kitty.

Becky G: Very well cared for cats. This place is designed to be a kitty haven

Jo Jo: Crash's Landing knew that a cat belonged to my neighbor and purposely adopted the cat out within the week to another person when the owner contacted them. The owner had no opportunity to take care of their cat when he was hurt because another person took him and refused to give the rightful owner his location. My husband works for the vet that the neighbor has used with her animals for years and can speak for the level of care she gave each of her animals and infromed Crash's Landing about the situation. This still wasn't enough for Crash's Landing to do the right thing and make sure reunification happened. The staff also talked to my neighbor in an extremely disrespectful way. What Crash's Landing has done is unethical.

Mary Roe: Wonderful and caring staff

Lisa Phillips: Great new facility to take care of the cats in the rescue. Love all the cat bird seats by the windows and all the feeders to entertain them. The staff did a great job on their open house and were warm and welcoming.

Brittany Allen: They adopted out a pet knowing he belonged to someone else. Our neighbor who has a connection to this shelter brought our other neighbor's cat here. They fixed a wound on his face and took care of him, but when they were told he belonged to someone, they adopted him out anyway. The owners, us and other neighbors contacted Crash's Landing to let them know this cat was owned already. We provided pictures and information. We were told they wouldn't adopt him out until they could sort this out and they did anyway knowing full well from numerous people he had owners already. He was taken by this neighbor under the pretense they were going to take care of the wound and he would be given back. Whenever their owner would ask this "colleague" of the shelter about Jack, she was given misleading information and wouldn't give her any answers. The owners went to this colleague's house several times to get info and was given the runaround. Us neighbors finally pulled our resources together and found out where he was. The neighbors lied to the owner and she never had a chance to claim him. They adopted him out without even giving his owners a chance to get him back. In a pretty condescending and rude email from one of the doctors there, they said that this should serve as some sort of teaching lesson for the owner's granddaughter who is in pre-school, and had nothing to do with anything. It was beyond tacky and insulting.The doctor, Dr. Jennifer, also included a link to a law regarding what is considered a stray. It doesn't apply when a pet is stolen and it's location is being concealed. Anyone on the Westside with a cat, make sure it's microchipped, otherwise the neighborhood Karen will steal it and take it here to be adopted out regardless of owners submitting every single piece of info they asked for.

Chris Start: I adopted my Manilow from here great place

Laura Jakel: Wonderful sanctuary helping at risk kitties be healthy and find forever homes.

Ron Lourigan: What a Great Place! Wonderful caring people saving so many nice kitties. Congratulations on the beautiful new facility.

Aaron Dull: They have amazing cats and will work with you too find the perfect companion.

Teresa: You could not find a better place to get your furever friends. The volunteers and Dr Jen are amazing!! They truly care about the kitties you can just tell when you step inside the building. I got my last two kitties there and would not go anywhere else. Dr Jen saved our girl Wendy after she suddenly got sick this summer and I will forever be grateful of that,she is a amazing vet and person.

Michelle VanAllsburg: Wonderful and caring people.

Keith Remelts: Great cause! You can donate your cans to them! I love that!

Michelle Prins: Best shelter in Michigan!!! I love this place. Super clean and great volunteers.

nathan holstrom: Absalutly the best people!! And their layout and care for these animals is absalutly amazing! We visited to plan an adoption for a chonky lovey fur baby named Roland. The facility is top notch and highly recommend adopting from them!!

A “The Administrator” H: I just started volunteering there and this place is great! It's set up like a home and the cats are free roaming. Only caged temporarily if recovering from surgery or something like that. They receive excellent care and oh my gosh, every single one of the cats are so sweet! Volunteers are vetted heavily so I can only assume thesame for potential adopters, so you can feel confident they are going to good homes. Can't wait to go back!

Rachel Britton: Such an amazing place to find your new best friend! The staff is very caring about the cats and keeping the environment clean and inviting for visitors. Volunteering is really fun too, highly recommend!

Jamie Groom: Great place to find an adult kitty needing a home. They have such a wonderful habitat for the cats - makes a house look so boring!!! It was a bit overwhelming to me, as I wasn't used to meeting cats that were on all levels of the room - most which couldn't have cared less I was there. Happy cats!! They are definitely not begging to leave.

Amanda Wells: This place was an amazing little shelter with kitties in every nook and cranny! The staff knew all the kitties so well and we were very impressed. They helped us pick out the right addition to our family and I highly recommend them! There are lots of babies here who need furever homes go check it out! Also our current kitties were very pleased with the kick sticks and toys we bought that were homemade here!

Olivia Schreck: takes in the medical, behavioral, all the cases you could think of into her own home :) just a wonderful place!

James Foster: Was friendly and made me feel comfortable

colleen issa: Critical:ProfessionalismI contacted them regarding my pitbull whom I claimed from a training center. Winchester has behavior issues from being abused. I simply asked for help and recommendations and was sent an automatic response to relinquish him to a shelter in Kent County. I am disgusted.

Katy Zaborowski: I like to check up on the animals and their stories

Judy Tatreau: Just dropped off dog food,unsettling to see political sign in window.

Riley Hawley: Great rescue and great volunteers. They care for those who have adopted through them and those who foster through them. This rescue has save many pitties,kitties, and more animals and while doing so they give those animals top tier health care. We’ve adopted our cat through them and they love hearing and seeing updates on them. All in all a great rescue

Samantha Onan: They have gone out of their way to help me with a pregnant cat I rescued. They’ve also done their best to help me, as I’ve tried to do what I can for strays that are brought to me. Always respond fast. Thank you!

Mandy Babcock: Not other rescue friendly...which means to me not dog friendly. Rescues are all in this together!

Sara Neal: Great people coming together to do great things for our community and for Michigan's pet population. Every cent donated goes towards the care of many needy pets!

Dawn Littlechild: Julie and her volunteers are wonderful and always trying to find the best homes for the animals

Missy Looman: We got our little Yogurt here, she’s the sweetest, funniest personality

Jennifer Brink: This organization was absolutely amazing to work with, highly recommend checking them out if you are looking to add a furry friend to your family! They continue to be supportive and answer questions long after the adoption is finalized.

Angie Besser: I can't say enough good things about Luvnpupz. We adopted from them a few years ago and are so grateful to to them for the care they showed our sweet pup. He is such a good, sweet boy! These are really good people who are determined to ensure that all of the animals in their care go on to live a happy life full of love.

Chris: There is a really rude lady that works here. She might have had a bad day, but regardless, we will be adopting at another business. One that knows how to communicate with respect towards another person. Too bad too, they have lots of animals that need to be homed. Won't be homing much animals with a staff worker who is confrontational.

cliff alexander: Fantastic shopping experience

Devin Beaudua: Critical:Professionalism,Reliability

Nicholas McKeage: Critical:Professionalism,Responsiveness

Dave Buys: Adopted both our dogs through Luvnpupz. Each were thoroughly vetted and came with detailed records including microchips. Foster parent present at meet and greet events to help smoothly transition pets to forever homes. Carri’s dedication in rescuing, rehabilitation and re-homing is above-board. We knew when looking at each dog, that no matter how their lives began, their eyes and smiles light up the whole room. These dogs know love. Many come close to losing that chance before Carri’s team arrives to transport them safely to rescue.

Jean Buys: Adopted fur kids in 2019 and 2021. Both were fostered by volunteers taking care to love, rehabilitate, and train. Carri does outstanding work getting each rescue to the veterinarian, coordinating with fosters, scheduling meet and greets, and always showing up. Organizations like Luvnpupz give dogs at large a chance, and a voice! Thank you for your 24/7 dedication and untold volunteer staff work behind the scenes. We are grateful for our dogs. They remember you and the kindnesses shown them when we return to visit!

Paws Fur Learning: Carri and the Luvnpupz family are amazing! They truly rescue those that everyone has turned their backs on. They go above and beyond to match their dogs (and the occasional cat) to the perfect adoptive family. Their high standards mean that their dogs get the best quality of life after normally a very rough start. So thankful for Carri and her "whoops" philosophy. I wish more in the rescue community had the same ethics and true passion that Luvnpupz shows every day. I have had the pleasure to work with them professionally as a rescue partner and now as an adopter. Highly recommend them for all of your furry family member adoption needs!

Stephanie Snowden: Absolutely AMAZING!!! We are so unbelievably happy and grateful for everything they do and for helping us find the most perfect dog in the whole entire world for us. It truly was a surprisingly great experience and I loved knowing we were working with such a reputable and professional organization. Highly recommend them to anyone and everyone who is thinking about getting a puppy!!!!

Katelynn Newland: Absolutely LOVE this rescue! They care about their animals and want to make sure all of the rescued babies go to the right home! I am so thankful that they do reference checks, home visits, and vet checks! It truly shows how much they care about their animals. HUGE shoutout to Carri (The President and Founder) for helping me find my forever fur baby, Honeybee! We are so grateful to partner with an organization that gives SO much to animals that deserve a loving and caring home/family!

Beth Barber: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Reliability,ResponsivenessWonderful people, I adopted my dog from them about 4 years ago. Carri was very thorough in her inspection and made sure our older dog got along with the new baby. We highly recommend adopting with Luvnpupz to anyone looking for a new fur baby.

Grace Churchill: I was nervous about all of the steps you have to take to adopt a puppy from Luvnpupz, but only because I have never been good at tests😅.Our experience was nothing short of extraordinary as the whole crew worked really hard to find the perfect pup for our family.We had a few special needs and felt really grateful for the accomodations that were made for our meet and greet.It's so obvious that the whole foster family loves all the pups and that they want the beat for each one.If we decide on another dog down the road I will definitely go through L+P again. THANK YOU!

Danielle Fish: Critical:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,Value

Brian Lawn: Never went there. I kept putting in application and overlooked each time. I got my baby from the human society

Linda Berry: Critical:Professionalism,Reliability,Responsiveness

Ashley Flanagin: All the volunteers make sure to keep the cats safe and healthy. If there is a certain type of cat your looking for ask the volunteers there which ones they think would work best for your family. They all work to get to know the cats and make them feel happy and safe. Wonderful place to adopt your cat from.

Greg Hobart: Very friendly and helpful. Lots of great cats to choose from and time to get to know the kitty your interested in. They can use any donations you can drop off. Food and litter are examples.

Tricia Boot: We recently adopted the sweetest kitten from this rescue and had a very good experience. I appreciated that they have a thorough adoption process to ensure their kittens/cats go to a safe, healthy and loving forever home. The cats in the facility are clearly well cared for and comfortable, and the volunteers are passionate about matching the cats with the best home. Highly recommend! Thank you for connecting us with our newest family member!

Susan Rosely: Great cats looking for homes and amazing volunteers!

Nia L.: My boyfriend adopted Horace from here. They take such good care of their cats. Please pay a visit or donate!

Marc Right: Cat! Lots of cats!The folks here obviously care about their well-being until they can be adopted.Consider support or a donation if you're able.

OG PI (OGPI): Great experience and well set up environment for cats and potential candidates.

Louis Felix: Wish I didn't have to pay so much to adopt a pet.

Kenneth Lau: This is a wonderfully warm organization providing a welcoming place to adopt a friendly new kitty into your household

Adam Gross: Great place. Run by a very passionate owner.My first visit was awesome and getting to see and pet the cats was great. They were very nice and kind. Definitely a place full of cat lovers and you can't get any better than that! Highly recommend if you are looking for a place to find a sweet furry friend to adopt or even show your love and give that love by fostering a sweet adult cat. 😊

Pyric Lancaster: Ive been a part of SCCats of WM since its founding. There is no org in WM doing as much to support the municipal shelters and helping to rescue cats from euthanasia from overcrowding. And every cat at SCCats of WM recieves the best care that a cat could ask for. Highly recommend SCCWM for any cat adoptions.

Michelle Keener: Absolutely amazing place. They care so much about the cats they adopt out and such a friendly environment.

Angie Stumpo: Love this place! The staff is great and they take such great care of the kitties.

Paige Clemons: I accompanied my cousin to Second Chance Cats when she was looking for a furry companion (or two) to keep her company after moving to the GR area from Detroit. After a somewhat overwhelming experience at the Humane Society (on a Saturday morning 😳), we stopped by Second Chance Cats and were pleasantly surprised by the relaxed and inviting atmosphere. My cousin told the ladies what kind of cat she was looking for and they directed her immediately to two bonded cats, recently rescued from a hoarder house. My cousin fell in love & adopted them straight away. Frankie (originally Dawn) & Marlo are now thriving in her care and have become quite the friendly duo!

Frances Foley: Have not been yet, have friends who like second chance cats

m l: Positive:Professionalism,ReliabilityWonderful rescue and wonderful staff. The cats are adorable and you can tell that they are well taken care of.

dan g.: so many cute cats + lots of kittens, all lovingly taken care of in a colorful and enriching space. the people here really care!! would recommend to anyone looking to adopt a cat

Elaine Knepp Baine: Never have had such a wonderful experience at a shelter. You can tell they are definitely are all about making sure the cats get the best possible placement possible. With that being said they also strive for the best customer service. Laura the co-founder was working when I came in with my daughter a half hour before closing and we found the perfect kitten but I wanted my husband to come see her before making the final decision and she stayed a couple minutes after closing for that to happen. Then after filling out the application on a Saturday, the adoption coordinator Marj was was very fast in processing and very responsive to any questions that I had. I would definitely suggest this shelter for anyone looking for a cat. Could not be happier.

cornell halquist: Positive:Professionalism,ReliabilitySecond Chance Cats of WM are such good people, some of the most good hearted people I've met. They are in it for the cats, truly.
