Review for ASPCA - American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, New York, NY, USA
I had a great experience adopting from the 92nd St. ASPCA! I found the cat that I wanted on there website and was able to adopt her the next day. Potential adopters are thoroughly screened and the whole process take about 2 hours. Since I knew which cat that I wanted after looking at the location website, I did not take the tour and was brought to meet the cat right away. This particular cat, named "Lee", has a heart condition and requires very specific medication treatments. The staff, who had been keeping her as an office pet, was very friendly and full of great advice.
The veterinarians and behavioral specialist provided easy-to-follow instructions on administering the cat's meds as well as sound advice on acclimating the cat to her new home. Full medical records and a prescription for medication refills were also provided. I adopted the cat on a Thursday so there was no charge. The gave me a collar, a carrier, and bag with several cans of food free of charge. They were also able to sell me feeding bowls and a litter box with liners at a very reasonable price. Please note that there is a $75 charge if you should decide to adopt on the weekend. If you do not find the pet that you want online before visiting, they will provide you with a full tour all of the available cats and dogs in the facility.
A few days later I even received a phone call following up to make sure that the cat is doing well in her new home. The staff will also be available to provide any additional advice that you may need at any time during the office hours of 11am to 7pm. I'm glad i made the choice to adopt though the ASPCA and I highly recommend their services.
