I have used H.O.P.E. for Animals services a multitude of times. They provide lower cost veterinary services, such as spaying/neutering, blood work, etc. They even provide Trap and Release services for stray cats, to prevent them from continuing to reproduce. I strongly believe in the work that they do for our community!

My son who is 19, took his dog “Titan” to Hope to get neutered. Not only was the price very low but the treatment he received was exceptional. They were kind, caring, nurturing, and informative. Let me say that Titan is a boxer/pit mix, 10 months old, and weighs about 75 pounds. After his surgery he was still a little uneasy and when the tiny girl brought him out, she was carrying him!! She thought nothing of it, she said he didn’t want to walk to she just picked him up. I would recommend Hope to anybody and everybody, a wonderful , trusting place to care for your pets. Thank you Hope!

I was lucky enough to be a volunteer at HOPE for a summer. I did their laundry. Since I was behind the scenes I got to see the doctors and staff as they really were not just their public faces. I have to tell you I never saw so much love and dedication any where in my life.
One of the vets stayed after her normal time just to hold and sooth a kitten that was dying. The compassion she showed still makes me cry after all this time.
I was impressed how dedicated everyone was to keep the place clean, safe and comfortable for every animal they cared for. I took my dog there to be neutered knowing she was in good hands and I didn't need to worry about her. I use the services they offer and always feel we get great treatment for a fair price.
I love HOPE for Animals.

This is where I took 17 feral cats and 'accident' kittens to be altered. They couldn't have been more helpful and all were successes.

I have been going to HOPE for quite a few years now and I can't say enough wonderful things about it. The staff is kind and professional. I mostly take Community cats but when I do add another furry family member I take them there as well. I have never had to take a cat back due to an issue after a surgery but it is comforting to know that they have a number for you to call and will see them free of charge if there is a medical issue after the spay or neuter. I took a pregnant cat on one occasion but I was having a battle with my conscience. The staff member let me talk and cry out my feelings and in the end I took her back home. There was no judgement on her part and I was not made to feel like I just wasted her time. I will never forget her kindness. I can't imagine taking the fur babies anywhere besides HOPE.

We brought our newly rescued pup in to be spayed. The staff was very interested in her breed. We were thinking husky but small dog. They staff just fell in love with Lolly so when they had her for surgery they spent some time researching her breed. When we picked her up they shared with us they thought she was a Norwegian Elkhound and Whippet. Lolly never grew into a big husky, she's only 18lbs but I think they got it right. They take great care of Boo and Lolly and we love that we have this resource in our area.

I am so thankful for their community cat Program. So far I have trapped, spayed/neutered 10 cats in the past two years. These abandoned , dumped, feral and pets that were left behind are now all fixed I cannot reproduce and are able to live the best life possible that they can outside since they do not want any human contact. If it wasn’t for this program saving lives of all these cats and HOPE for animals offering to do the ear tip, microchip, three-year rabies shot and fix them , I couldn’t imagine all the senseless lives that would’ve been lost. I recommend this place highly not only for community cats but also for your pets as well, my daughter has had her babies fixed here and got their shots there as well if it wasn’t for their affordable prices and specials that they have she wouldn’t be able to be a proper Fur mama

We unexpectedly had a stray adopt us. He wasn't claimed by anyone, and he was living under our house. We already have 3 cats, but we couldn't just leave him outside. He was less than a year old, but old enough to be neutered. Unfortunately we didn't have the money. We were able to get him neutered for a lower price through H.O.P.E for Animals, which not only helped him, but helped our other cats to accept him. We have a happy, healthy family of cats now! H.O.P.E. for animals made that possible!

I was able to get all the shots for both of them for about $120. I made an appointment to have them spayed & neutered this month for about $130 total. If I can’t afford to pay it immediately, I can put it on Care Credit for deferred payments. Everyone was so kind & professional. They answered all my questions, & even helped me get them back in the car, which was difficult since I use a cane. I appreciate all they did, & will do for me, and for the whole community!

H.O.P.E. for Animals is a valuable organization in our community and surrounding areas. We are a better place because of the services they provide. They support our community through low-cost spay and neuter programs, discounted microchipping and vaccinations, general health services, and much more. Their Community Cat program is helping to decrease the population growth of feral cats, thus making the colonies healthier, which can deter free-roaming strays from entering the territory. I support this organization because of the enormous, positive impact it has on the euthanasia rates for our area.

I'm very confident in their abilities and compassion in dealing with animals. Their prices are much more affordable as well. My only issue is that although they provided all the needed info for pre-surgery, I received not one word of post-surgery info ahead of time. I used their services years ago for cats... but never for a dog. I had no idea neutering a male DOG requires a lot more aftercare and restrictions than a male CAT and it's a lot harder on a dog. Believe me, I have no problem with providing all necessary love and care for our pup for whatever amount of time it takes, BUT had I known post-surgical restrictions lasted 14 days I would never have scheduled neutering for our male dog when I did. It completely ruined our plans for the following weekend (9 days later) for our dog and for ourselves. Just one statement from them (during scheduling) to make me aware that restrictions last 14 days would have made all the difference. Then I could have asked any specific questions in regard to our plans and known BEFOREHAND that it was not good timing. There would have been no problem on our part waiting until another time to take him in. Their care and caring are excellent but more information BEFORE scheduling, specifically about restrictions AFTER, would be so beneficial.

Worst experience of my life!!! They NEVER told me a pickup time then said they would CALL ME when my dogs were ready to be picked up. Apparently the latest pickup time was at 4:15 and they did not call me until 4:53!! 7 minutes before they closed!! When we got there, they said there was a late fee!! But the rude manager came out and talked to me. She was disgruntled and rude but stated that she would waive the late fee. But after initially paying $170 at drop off, I had to pay $47 to pick them up, even though the fee was supposedly dropped!!! I am more peeved at the fact my dogs had been done for hours, waiting in cages, stress levels going crazy, when they could have came home with me when they were finished!! I will never come back again and I will make sure everyone knows NOT to take their pets here!! If you genuinely care about your animals, please do yourself and them a favor and go somewhere else!!

Hope for Animals in Fort Wayne is an outstanding charitable non profit. They have helped to reduce the number of animals in our local shelters by offering low cost spay/neuter and community cat programs. They also have a great low cost wellness clinic for annual vaccinations. Hope does wonderful work for our town and our animals.

H.O.P.E. for Animals provides wonderful services for the community to help people who can't afford the cost of typical vet care. Their new wellness clinic is a godsend for low income people, as well. Now, because of their efforts, they are helping to cut down on the over population of animals, including feral cats with their spay and neuter services. They are very good stewards of their funds. I am a donor and have been since 2012. I will continue to support them as much as I can. Without them, many more unwanted animals would come in to this world and face starvation, disease, neglect, abuse and death. Because of them, many pet owners can afford to get medical treatment for their pets they could not otherwise afford. HIGH FIVE TO ALL H.O.P.E. STAFF!!!

I wish that more people knew about HOPE for Animals. They are a wonderful organization that this community direly needs. My first experience with them was when my husband told me that if I wanted a puppy, that I had to get my older dog and the puppy fixed. In order to afford that I went in search of a place to have it done. Enter HOPE! Everyone that I encountered there were very friendly, professional and showed a lot of love and care and compassion for the humans and the animals. Because of this, I now try to donate to them every chance I get. I have also sat in on a meeting about SNR and TNR. I have to say that the passion that Madeleine Laird and the others that work there moves me to want to do everything I can to help their cause. I also have a sticker on my minivan that says I support HOPE for Animals and while at Walmart, I came out to a hand written note from Madeleine Laird thanking me for the support.

H.O.P.E. for animals in Fort Wayne is amazing! My cat was experiencing discomfort from a rash on his back. They squeezed us in to their already busy schedule. Every person we saw there was beyond kind, helpful, and attentive. The check in staff, the vet assistants, and the veterinarian were awesome! There was an issue with another animal there and the assistant kept coming in and checking on us in the exam room keeping us informed why it was taking so long. The veterinarian suggested right away that my cat had an allergy and a steroid shot would help his skin. Just like she said, within two weeks all of his skin scabs have been healed and he is not scratching all over. Aside from how accurate and sweet everyone was, the cost was a lifesaver! At the time we could not afford a traditional vet office visit or any additional services they suggested. The visit was only $10 and the steroid shot was only $7.50. I can't wait until I have some spare money to donate to this wonderful organization. This is the only place I will consider taking my pet from now on! Thanks H.O.P.E.!!!!

I've benefitted from H.O.P.E. in a variety of ways. My most recent Cat addition (Daisy) came from a rescue affiliated with H.O.P.E. which resulted in my having her spayed there. They were so easy and nice to work with. They were organized and efficient and Daisy received top-notch care. I'm a social worker in town and one of my client's was able to take her dog to them for care she could not otherwise have afforded. She was happy with the services received and the dog benefitted from treatment for an allergic reaction. It's wonderful that this service exists as there are a lot of people who could provide a good home to an animal but could never afford the medical care they need. I was so inspired by them that I volunteered in their booth at a local event and have made a couple small donations. They do a great service. I can't say enough nice things about them!

They also do an outstanding job getting info out to the community about general health of animals. They post 'Did You Know' info on the H.O.P.E Facebook page and Website. example: Did you know puppies and kittens can become pregnant as early as 4 months.

I had been going through running back and forth to my vet for a year trying to get my cat Crybaby better. The vet could never figure out what was wrong despite sending blood and urine to Indy, enless antibiotics etc. I was at my wits end going through a seperation, becoming disabled and no more money to speak of. I called H.O.P.E. at a loss, not wanting to lose my cat of 8 years. It seemed hopeless, I was at my end, I could not afford the $700 more my old vet wanted for more tests. H.O.P.E. said they didnt normally do something like that. I thought my cat would have to be put down. It wasnt 10 minutes later H.O.P.E. called me back, said a vet there could help me, to bring Crybaby in for them to look at her first. I took her in on a Friday, they examined her and immediatly could tell me what was wrong after over a year of what Crybaby had to go through. They sent me home that Friday with antibiotics and the following Monday did surgery to remove a bladder stone the size of a golf ball. No matter what I can do now, it will never be enough to thank them for saving my Crybaby. I can never thank H.O.P.E. enough for all they have done for us!

As a low-cost spay/neuter/vaccination clinic HOPE has operated for less than a year. They have accomplished a great deal in this short time. I volunteer in the office, and I am impressed with the dedication and resilience of the staff. These professionals must deal with some very demanding situations, especially with feral, unsocialized, or frightened animals. Yet they maintain their sense of humor and compassion. And the clinic prices are beyond reasonable.
As a cat rescue group, HOPE has been around for several years. I've volunteered with other rescue groups, but Emilie Beard, who manages the rescue aspect, is several notches above any other I've seen. Based on what I see as a foster for some of her cats, she carefully tends to the medical and social needs of every cat. She knows their history, their personal quirks, their habits . . . . She can make a well informed recommendation as to the type of home in which the cat/kitten will thrive. I call Emilie "The Cat Whisperer" due to her extensive knowledge and experience in caring for cats.

Upon having to put our beloved cat Scarlet down due to cancer, we happened upon H.O.P.E. for Animals website showing animals for adoption. Two 2 week old kittens from Mrs. Tuxedo's litter "called" to us. We called, explained our loss and how devastated our boys were, especially our 9 year old. Mrs. Beard, Director, did everything in her power to give us "HOPE". She sent us photo's, permitted us to meet the kittens and sent us a few updates until the kittens (and us) were ready for the adoption. The kittens were so well socialized, very friendly, healthy and loving. Mrs. Beard has earned her "wings" many times over--not just for caring for animals, but for the humans who adopt them.

Had a wonderful experience in the scary situation of having my puppy spayed. They were very positive and great at sharing information. Would definitely recommend and use again!

We have gotten our dogs and cat their annual shots at HOPE for the past two years. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, and the price is GREAT. Our pets are very healthy, and I hate the prices the local vets charge for an office visit just to get shots. HOPE has been a wonderful option for us.

I had spent several months trying to catch semi-feral cats, get them spayed/neutered & re-homed and when I called HOPE for general information on their services they were very helpful and understanding. I ended up getting 7 babies & 4 adults from the property & took two cats to them (1 long-haired, not so people oriented) to be spayed/neutered & shots. They even trimmed off the hairmats that were all over the long haired boy which made him much more comfortable & calm. I will definitely keep them in mind for anyone who asks about low cost/effective services in the future. I also greatly appreciate the fact that they fit me in to the schedule because of the semi-feral boy in a humane trap.

My family adopted a kitten from one of HOPE for Animals adoption sites in Fort Wayne, Indiana. They helped us choose the perfect animal, one who has fit right in. He was already neutered and had the first two rounds of shots - he is due for his third round later this month and we have an appointment at HOPE for Animals to get this done. We are very happy with our experience with this organization. They also were the ones who spayed our dog. She received great care while at their clinic, and they made sure we knew to call them if any problems arose.

HOPE for Animals did an amazing job with the neuter of my latest foster dog Rocky. They were very professional, caring, and explained the aftercare instructions very well. I look forward to taking other fosters there in the future!

Almost a year ago, I was looking to adopt a kitten. I found H.O.P.E. for Animals online and saw pictures of some of the kittens they had up for adoption and emailed them to ask about a kitten I was interested in. I had to fill out some basic information before I was allowed into the house where the cats and kittens were kept. Once I was there, I was so impressed with the care all the cats and kittens were getting and their living conditions. They were not caged up like other shelters, and the lady in charge knew the story and personality of every single cat there!! You could tell everyone involved cared so much for each animal and wanted to find the best home possible for all of them. They asked about other pets I had at home and how the new kitten would fit in. They also gave me tips and information on introducing a new kitten to the cat I already had. The cats and kittens were not being given to just anybody; there was a process to make sure each animal went to a caring home and that they would be spayed or neutered. This also impressed me as I hate to hear stories of animals being mistreated. H.O.P.E. rescues these animals and makes sure they are healthy and makes sure they find great homes. I was so impressed with them that I ended up adopting two kittens instead of just one, as I was planning on. Everyone there is so invested in these animals and dedicated to their cause, and it truly is an organization that works to improve the lives of animals.

I got two stray kittens fixed at this clinic. The check in and pick up went smoothly and I am VERY satisfied. All of my questions were answered, everyone was friendly despite the dreadful early hours, and I would recommend this clinic to anyone needing care for their pet. Not only are they the cheapest place to take care of your animal, they are professional and caring, informative and efficient. This area desperately needed a low-cost clinic.

HOPE for Animals is the best thing to come to Fort Wayne, IN in a very long time. The staff and volunteers are always helpful and courteous and do all they can to make the experience a good one. They offer low cost altering of pets and vaccinations. They provide education about responsibile pet ownership. Their facility is clean, bright, and inviting. I have had 4 of my dogs there for vaccinations and the staff was smiling and obviously enjoying their work. They were effiecient and professional and handled my dogs with the love and respect they deserve. Kudos to the staff and volunteers at HOPE for Animals! Molly Quinn
