Review for Top Paw Rescue Inc, Hollywood, FL, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

JOANNA TOPPAWRESCUE CHARGES PEOPLE 40.00 TO TAKE A STRAY/FERAL/OR OWNED CAT AWAY , SHE ALSO CHARGES A DEPOSIT OF 60.00 FOR THE TRAP SHE SETS TO CATCH THESE CATS, I WAS TOLD. SHE TELLS THE PERSON NOT TO FEED THE CAT OR CATS, SO THESE CATS ARE STARVED , WHEN MANY ARE USED TO BEING FED REGULARLY, WHICH IS CRUEL AND INHUMANE. I WONDER HOW MANY OWNED CATS SHE HAS TAKEN IN THESE TRAPS WHEN WORKING WITH PROPERTY OWNER OR TENANT WHO HATES CATS WANDERING ON THEIR PROPERTY, or THAT GET TIRED OF FEEDING THEM , AND THEY ARE
MORE THAN HAPPY TO PAY HER TO REMOVE THEM ? THERE ARE HORRIBLE REVIEWS FOR THIS NOW SUPPOSEDLY PER HER OWN FACEBOOK PAGE WEBSITE CLOSED RESCUE AS OF APRIL 4TH 2018. HER WEBSITE IS NOT ACTIVE : CLICK THIS LINK : http://prntscr.com/j8q5df http://prntscr.com/j8q66r
SHE IS STILL OPERATING AND CHARGING PEOPLE AND REMOVING CATS OFF PROPERTY. AND STATING SHE IS TOPPAWSRESCUE INC. https://www.facebook.com/TopPawRescueInc/posts/10156074392941745 READ THIS ONE REVIEW ON THIS LINK : https://greatnonprofits.org/org/top-paw-rescue-inc AND THERE ARE MORE. RESEARCH THE PERSON AND THE REVIEWS.
THERE ARE MANY WONDERFUL LEGIT RESCUES IN SOUTH FL. THAT UNLIKE Joanna M TOPPAWSRESCUE, DO NOT TAKE PEOPLES MONEY AND THEN CLAIM TO USE IT FOR VETTING , THAT ACCORDING TO MORE THAN ONE REVIEWER WHO CONTACTED VETS SHE CLAIMED TO OF USED, SAID SHE DID NOT TAKE CATS THERE, AFTER SPEAKING WITH THAT VETS OFFICE . NO LEGIT RESCUE CHARGES FOR ACCEPTING A CAT OR TRAPPING A CAT. IN MY LIFETIME NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A THING, BUT I AM SURE SHE IS MAKING A TIDY LITTLE INCOME FOR WHAT SHE IS DOING AND AS STATED IN THE REVIEWS "NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS REALLY HAPPENING TO THE CATS SHE TAKES" PER QUOTES FROM REVIEWS FOR THE TOPPAWSRESCUE OF HOLLYWOOD, FL. PLEASE IF YOU NEED HELP WITH FINDING A HOME FOR A CAT , SEARCH AND RESEARCH RESCUES PRIOR TO HANDING A HELPLESS, VOICELESS CAT OR DOG , TO ANYONE AND YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY A RESCUE IF THEY STATE THEY WILL HELP YOU BY ACCEPTING THE CAT OR DOG. ON JOANNA'S OWN FB PAGE DATED APRIL 4TH 2018 SHE SPEAKS OF HER RESCUE PROBLEMS AND COMPLAINTS , I READ THIS JUST THE OTHER DAY ON HER PAGE WHICH SHE SAID SHE IS LEAVING UP AT THE MOMENT :

OUR TIME TO SAY GOODBYE

It has come to our attention recently that we are apparently being classified in the same group with animal abusers and we're being listed on tons of sites such as DNA Florida, skam rescues, and many many other sites where you will find tons of rescues that allowed animals to starve or they were killed tortured. fortunately we don't fall into that category. So now what we're being picked on for is not having our 501 c 3. Okay I can give everyone that but if everyone would like to take a moment and look through our complete page you will see that never once did we neglect a huge medical case such as if everyone remembers her Angelina. Back from 2009 she was going to be euthanized for her looks and she managed to live an additional four wonderful years before passing away of Two Strokes with her owner in Kentucky. Then there have been many others as well Patty Gary we've taken on hundreds of mange cases we've taken on tons of pregnant mothers that mdas was ready to euthanize or get rid of all the puppies. so unfortunately in our case we've never really had the thousands of dollars required to pay for the 501 c 3 instead our money has always gone towards the animals. Someone claims that they spoke with our vets and that are vets hate us yet they have a lot of our records on file but under my name not always under the rescue name and that was a mistake I made years ago I put half the animals under my name and half of them under the rescue name. When I first started out no one really helped me figure everything out I basically learned along the way but I always knew what Humane treatment of animals was and that will never change in my heart.

Unfortunately for the rescue we still don't have the thousands of dollars required for a 501 c 3 and that's going to take time at the moment I have a puppy that's going to see an orthopedic specialist tomorrow and a lot of money is going to go to the ortho with him alone...

So with this being said and the continued slander and lies about how we dumped and kill animals it is very unfortunate that when you have a large group of people that play telephone and categorize Us in categories we don't fit in for everyone that knows us that hinders the animals at a large expense.

unfortunately these groups of people would prefer to destroy us then to assist us. If the 501 c 3 is such a main concern for everyone why doesn't this large group of people gather and help collect donations they don't have to give it to us and they can help us pay the 501 C3 so they can see us where they would like us to be instead they come up with their own stories and more. The unfortunate part about everything is at the end of the day I've rescued hundreds thousands even since I started in 2009 but the strain and the stress that these people are putting on us is quite large. The animals are unfortunately the ones affected by this more than anything. At this point I'm making the decision to contact resq's I work with and hopefully Passover the remaining animals we have in Foster and boarding and we are announcing OUR FINAL GOODBYE

I can't say that these last few years since 2009 hasn't been heartwarming or amazing because it truly has. I've worked with so many people we've done so many wonderful things and placed so many animals that otherwise without us would have been euthanized. But the amount of Stress and Anxiety that comes along with rescuing is already big on itself not to throw in that these large groups block me immediately once I tried to reply with my defense. Eventually everything must come to an end and I guess this is where our end comes in.

I hope everyone who has wished for us to shut down is happy. I will miss rescuing and I will miss what I do but that doesn't mean that I have to stop helping strays or stop feeding colonies. I hope everyone has enjoyed us along the way if anybody has had wonderful experiences with us please feel free to comment below our page will stay up for at least another month to give me time to collect all of my memories off of Facebook.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SUPPORTED US ALONG THE WAY!!!
