Rock N Rescue is absolutely amazing. I love how they are helping animals. I’ve adopted 3 kittens from them, the most recent being September 5. All of my adoptions were smooth and effortless. The way they have the fosters with the kittens really helps the kittens adjust outside of cages and to get comfortable with other animals and individuals.

Such a great rescue. I adopted Adam Warlock 3 weeks ago. He has honestly changed it all for me. Simply adore him. Rock n Rescue gave me all his paperwork and he is up to date on all medical vaccines. Thank you for all you do.

I adopted my lovely cat from Rock N Rescue this past summer, and had such a great experience with them! The process was smooth and straightforward, everyone responded quickly and answered all of my questions, and it was clear how loved and cared for all of the animals are. I also attended a group session for stress management at the therapy center. It was very well run and helpful, and it was so special to be able to interact and play with all of the tiny kittens running around. I highly recommend this rescue organization!

We adopted three sibling cats from RNR a number of years ago. They are absolutely amazing. RNR does such an amazing job fostering and nurturing them to become pets with fantastic personalities. We were so happy with our three we decided to foster another that they rescued from a backyard breeding situation. Well, we foster failed and little Jasmine (Siamese) became one of the herd. They work tirelessly to save so many animals that deserve to be saved. Our four are our kids and we love them to no end.

I adopted my kitten, Victor, from RNR in 2020. The process was a little challenging due to Covid restrictions - we had our meet and greet in my car! But the volunteers made it all run smoothly. If I hadn't moved to Florida I would definitely have adopted there again. Victor is now known as Quincy Firecat and is the sweetest laid back kitty. Orange cats rock!

I have adopted 7 furbabies from Rock n Rescue and I can't say enough about them! First and foremost, they save furbabies lives! They make sure they have their vet checkups and any necessary medications, surgeries, etc to get them ready for foster and adoption. The fosters are also amazing! They love the furbabies as if they were their own and you can tell! My adopted furbabies all have great personalities, are love bugs, are snugglers, love to play with toys, and they all get along as if they grew up together from birth. I have recommended RnR to several of my friends and coworkers in the past and will definitely continue to do so. Love you guys and congrats on your new location! Can't wait to see it!

When my family said no more dogs i went looking for a rescue for cats. I found Rock n rescue had the most adorable kittens! They sent me a photo of a small grey tabby and he was adorable and fit well with our family. Quinn is the sweetest boy!! But Quinn was very shy and stayed in my bedroom most of the time so i thought lets just see if Rock nRescue has any kittens i felt Quinn needed a friend. So they sent a photo of an orange tabby cute as a button. These two boys are so very sweet and as they are the first cats i have ever had I am so grateful for Rock n Rescue!! And yes Finn brought Quinn out of his shell!!

I was so upset and heartbroken over the loss of my beloved cat Sofie that I had no intention of replacing her.. That was until I arrived home from work to a sad and lifeless house. I quickly realized that I needed to turn that house back into a home. I went on Petfinder.com and immediately found my wonderful new girl Lexie (formerly Riley) at Rock N Rescue. I contacted them the next morning to see if she was available and lucky for me, she was! The adoption process was setup perfectly and everything went seamlessly thanks to the great folks over at Rock N Rescue. Lexie immediately transformed that sad house back into a happy home. I also happen to be a lifelong Rock music fan who loves rescues, so I guess it was meant to be! Thanks again to everyone at Rock N Rescue for my Lexie and all that you continue to do for the countless rescues that you help each and every day.

Thank you Marla, Juli and The Rock n Rescue team! 2 years ago we adopted Finn from R&R, and Finn has been such a sweet, adorable and playful Kitty that we wanted to get him to have a friend that is as playful as him. Romeo, our newly adopted kitten, is exactly how they described him and he is a sweet, silly, playful love bug that is a perfect addition to our kitty Clan. R&R does a great job and and our cats have been happy, healthy, and very well adjusted. Romeo and Finn were snuggling and grooming each other in one week and my 10-year-old kitty loves him too! Many thanks for our perfect little boys Romeo and Finn!

I had a very very disappointing experience with Rock N' Rescue. I was cleared to adopt, and signed an adoption agreement and they canceled my adoption through a TXT! I had to call them and they would not even let me speak on the phone and just talked over me almost the whole time. I had to ask them a few times please let me speak and please don't interrupted or speak over me just because you're louder. That is not how you should treat someone trying to help and give one of the rescue puppies a forever home. I asked to meet the puppy once before taking home the same day and they said they don't allow "browsing"

Also they say adopters are not allowed to speak with fosters but they have fosters posting on FB asking people to please adopt puppies. The fosters are inviting adopters to meet at their house, then the shelter says it's against policy to talk to fosters. Why allow fosters to post on FB then? The foster and I spoke for a week she was sending me pictures, updates, answering my questions and inviting me over to meet the puppy. I will add an update soon.

We have the sweetest addition our family thanks to the kind people at Rock N Rescue. The puppy we rescued was in excellent care with the foster that had her before we rescued her. Rock N Rescue was so responsive and efficient through the process of matching us with our puppy. They make sure you know that they are always there to support you and your pet even after the adoption is complete. You can tell they truly care about the animals and the families they help.

We are in love with the sweetest guy. When I saw him, with those big green eyes, I knew he would fill that hole left in my heart after losing my Bella. Oliver is friendly, curious, and a mushy love bug. He definitely was well-cared for by his foster family. Thank you Rock and Rescue for bringing us together.

I was staying in NYC for a while with my cat Chloe when I realized I was leaving her for such long hours by herself. I decided to look at pet finder when I came across a little kitten who was with rock n rescue. I applied for him however I was told he was no longer available but they had another one that just came in , a 6 month old Ragdoll who was very friendly named Jasmine( now named Cleo). I fell in love with her instantly and knew i needed to adopt her.

Marla, Juli and the rest of the team walked me through all the steps and by the Saturday of that same week I had her! She’s such a loving sweet angel who enjoys being picked up, playing with her sister Chloe and giving nose kisses. I can’t remember what it was like before I had her.

So grateful for rock n rescue for all they do to save these animals and place them in loving homes. I highly recommend adopting and supporting this organization! #adoptdontshop

We lost one of my beautiful cats in November, and I really wasn't looking, but I saw one of the kittens available through Rock n rescue and something made me reach out. They are communicative, all the arrangements to meet and bring my boy home were on time and well organized. Everyone I spoke with was extremely friendly and helpful. Best of all, I have the sweetest boy who is a perfect match for our other cats, and our house is full and happy.

My wife and I adopted Windy (her name is now Anya) when she was just 13 weeks old. She very quickly settled into our home and is the sweetest cat I’ve ever had.

I love Rock N Rescue! Juli and her crew go above and beyond in caring for the animals they've taken in and work tirelessly to find the perfect homes for them! Each time I've been to their place, it is spotless and the kitties are all so very happy! She has a great adoption rate and gets a great deal of her cats and kittens from high kill shelters where they'd have no chance for adoption. She literally saves their lives and then finds them the perfect family and I am proud to know her and watch her work!

Rock N Rescue is THE BEST! They put so much thought into the matches they make for their animals and offer so much support!
When I applied for a cat they took time with my application and we spoke about exactly what I was looking for and what my home was like.
They helped me find the perfect cat for me! Beyond that, they were so committed to making sure the cat, Bryce, got the perfect home for him and that I got the perfect furry friend for me, that when I ended up with health complications that prevented me from adopting right away they held him for me, though others wanted him, and made sure that we ended up together!
They took great care of him and got him ready for an easy adoption - he had needed surgery when they took him in and they got it done for him and got him healed up. It didn’t cost me any extra to adopt even though they had to pour resources into him. I hope people donate and they always have enough resources to offer this level of care to animals and generosity to adopters!
Bryce is literally the best cat in the world! My best friend and constant comfort and companion! I don’t know how I would have gotten through my medical struggles this spring without him. It is a perfect match and I am eternally grateful for the care and kindness they showed both him and me in bringing us together!
Cannot say enough good things about these lovely people and their animals!
Thanks again!

I adopted cat named Lucky on 4/27/23. On our first morning I went to check on her. She was sleeping, I called her name numerous times and she did not respond. I clapped my hands near her, no response. I discovered she was totally deaf and this was NEVER DISCLOSED to me during the adoption process. They have reposted her today with the description, “Deaf, not a problem.” Adopter beware. My experience with her for 3 days was heartbreaking. She would meow very loudly at all hours of the day. She was very fearful of my cat and small beagle. I think she needs to be the only pet. She is lovable, sweet and energetic. Btw, she turns 2 next week. She’s not 1 years old. And shame on you Rock N Rescue for not disclosing her deafness.

Rock N Rescue have been tireless in their efforts to help animals. My family have volunteered at their events, donated supplies, brought found animals in for adoption and sought their advice on helping spay/neuter/vaccinate feral cats. They are thoroughly professional, and experts at helping the animals in the communities they serve. They are remarkably caring and dedicated to helping animals and the people that love them. We are very lucky to have Rock N Rescue as a resource for caring for and placing animals for adoption. We support them in every way we can.

Rock 'N Rescue is one of the hardest working, committed and professional organizations we have ever worked with. Rock 'N Rescue has repeatedly helped us home feral kittens, find spay/neuter providers for TNR care of feral cats and supported us in caring for them. We have worked at adoption events for Rock 'N Rescue where it is obvious that they are providing services for the animals in their care and the people that adopt them at the highest level. We are so grateful that they are in our community providing these vital services.

I was lucky enough to adopt Chester in November of 2018 a couple months after my mom passed. I could not have asked for a better experience. I told them the type of personality I was looking for and they new what cats would be best suited for me. They allowed me to interact with all their cats. Seeing how much time and effort they put into socializing and making sure he fit is right for you is why this charity deserves all the recognition. Chester is the PURFECT addition to my family and helped me heal in only a way an animal can. Truly an amazing charity with its heart in the right place.

We had to put our 16 year old dog down a few months back and our kids were crushed. They had been asking for kittens for a while and we though it was a good time to raise their spirits. The experience we had with Rock N Rescue was hands down the best ever. We rescued 2 adorable kittens from them. They were helpful and kind and are still responsive to messages several weeks after. We love our new babies. The work this organization does for these poor animals is nothing short of amazing. If your looking for a new fur baby look no further. Thank you for the love you have brought to our family.

On July 9th 2022, I adopted a kitten named Petey. I spotted him on Perfinder after searching for weeks for a blind kitten. I fell in love with his picture and personality description immediately upon reading about him and filled out his application late at night, not wanting to waste a minute. By the next morning, I was matched with him and by that weekend the meet and greet was set up. I drove 2.5 hours to get my hands on this baby and it did not disappoint. He was exactly as they described. I wanted a love bug and I certainly got one!
It was evident that they are very invested in their rescues. They follow-up and check in during the transitional period following the adoption and even request that you save their number so that you can continue to give updates on your new addition because once they are a part of the Rock n Rescue family, they remain part of the Rock n Rescue family. Also, many of the foster families who invested so much time and love into their health and well-being are also invested in these updates. Put simple, these animals are clearly loved long before they ever find their match with you.
My little guy was rescued from a high kill shelter in Kentucky and I am so grateful for the foster mom that cared for him and loved him. I also feel indebted to Rock n Rescue for matching me with him. He is that special to us! He is now “Lotus” and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect addition to our family or a better rescue to work with. Highly recommend.

I can’t say enough good things about Rock N Rescue. August of 2021 we decided to adopt a kitten. I did a lot of research as this would be our first time with a kitten. We checked out RR and I instantly fell in love with a kitten named Kia. It was like the universe sent me to the site just to see her. I applied
immediately and we were approved. We set up a meet and greet and a group chat between the directors and myself in case I had questions which of course I did I was now a first time cat mom. They answered every question at any time of day and still do even a year later. You can tell these women truly love each animal they adopt out with every ounce of their being. Kia has been absolutely perfect, my saving grace after I lost my dog of 15 years. She my baby. A few months after we adopted Kia I wanted to get her a friend so we reached out to the rescue and they helped us find the perfect kitty full of spunk and love to be her new fur bff .. we adopted Tater. He is a big cuddly mush and the two of them are purrrfect together. They are even perfect matches with my two sons. It might sound crazy but they are the calm to the storm for my youngest who struggles with anxiety. They are everything I never knew I needed in this life and as much as I saved them they saved me. I can’t thank the rescue enough for saving these two (and all the other animals) they truly bring so much joy,love,and happiness to me and my family.

I started fostering with Rock n Rescue during the height of COVID in 2020. Both of my 15 year old cats had passed away during the prior 6 months and our hearts were broken. Fostering was a way to enjoy some kitties while we mended. We loved it. We have had so many wonderful kittens and cats here with us and of course foster failed, adopting a 3 year old perfect boy. People always ask us how we do it They always ask “how can you not keep them?” The truth is that it is very rewarding seeing the cats go to their new families. Rock n Rescue does such a great job matching the cats to prospective adopters that as a foster you feel happy when they come and pick them up. You know the kitties are going to people who really want them and will care for them like you do.
