   I was really disappointed with this shelter. The kitty I adopted was supposedly healthy as her records state, but as soon as we brought her home, we noticed her sneezing and lots of fluid in the eyes. When I took her for her first exam, discovered she never had her rabies shot or feline HIV testing (a MUST for shelter cats as they can easily contract in such small quarters, another $175 at the vet) this was partially my fault for simply assuming as every other shelter I have adopted cats from had these simple procedures done. The vet was astonished about this. The kitty also spread a respiratory infection she had at the shelter weeks ago and supposedly healed from, to my other cat, which cost me another $200 in vet bills. Oh, and she had many fleas when we first brought her home but a bath took care of that.
   All in all we love our kitty but this shelter needs to fork out the money and effort to have these cats taken care of properly with initial shots and testing to protect the other cats. Or prepare to spend a shiny penny on vet bills.
