Wonderful modern animal shelter. The animals are kept in good conditions and you're always welcom to volunteer, to help with something.

Very polite and hard working staff/volunteers! Nice facilities and great care for the animals.
The new building is such an improvement. The walking club is a lot of fun. Only negative thing is that they don't use their disinfection mats.
Animals are very well taken care of, properly sized containment areas and very hygienic.
At least HALF of the cats there are visibly sick, their eyes and noses are full of snot and pus... many cats obviously feel miserable, they’re coughing and sneezing... the woman who showed us the cats literally said they only treat the cat once people are interested in adopting it... so they willingly and knowingly let these poor, sick animals suffer until they decide it’s worth spending money on treatment. They try to blame it on the location, which IS horrible, but really if you keep sick animals sick and put them together with others... what do they expect? The woman didn’t seem bothered at all when I pointed out that a cat had so much snot in his nose that it was blowing bubbles as it took a breath... All cats are described as “scared”, “doesn’t trust people”,... of course they are scared and don’t trust people, 1. constant barking from the dogs, 2. they’re sick, and 3. the environment the cats are in makes it almost impossible for them to become social cats. And with descriptions like that, how many people are going to want to adopt a cat there? I’m not saying you shouldn’t get a cat from there, you SHOULD to save them, but definitely take the poor animal straight to the vet, and DON’T support them financially because it’s obvious where the money is (not) going.
Stray dogs thats been placed in asylum with a Great environment so into nature. The staff here are friendly and helpful. You can easily go here to go walk or adopt a dog or cat. Please note that there's no bankcontact on the premises. They make use of cash only.
Great shelter, allows you to walk with the dogs!
