My Nonprofit Reviews

We found out about the Almost Home Foundation back in 2019, while having dinner at Firehouse Hotdogs. We saw a gentleman walking a dog and he told us about AHF. At the time we already had a cat and were not in the position to adopt another, but we always knew that when the time came, we'd adopt through AHF. We lost our cat Lima in 2023 and knew that we'd adopt another cat when we were ready. Two years later, we saw Pearl on their FB page and immediately knew she was the one. The AHF staff were very helpful during the process. Pearl was rescued from the streets and stayed with a foster family. As it is with most rescues, she had a hard life. When we met her, she was extremely shy and nervous, but we still wanted her. AHF Sheila recommended we foster to adopt to make sure we were a good fit for Pearl and she for our family (due to the limited interaction during the meeting). Pearl came home and hid for about a week. During this time, Sheila kept in contact checking in on Pearl and to see if we needed anything. After a week, Pearl came out and started to trust us and our home little by little. When we finally adopted her officially, Sheila had all the documents ready, provided a goodie bag for Pearl, and a knitted blanket that was donated by a volunteer. Our interactions with Sheila were always positive and nice. We could tell that she really cared about Pearl and wanted to make sure she was going to a loving home. They all do amazing work in trying to get foster and furever homes for rescues. We love this foundation and hope to adopt another cat again in the future!
