Review Details

I have adopted 5 of my 12 cats from WAHS. They were in great health and very well taken care of. They have some really great animals that need homes. I wish I could take them all. The staff is the best and very helpful, even though they are so busy all the time. They will find time to help you and answer any questions. GREAT place. Don't hesitate to adopt from them. Even the volunteers will do anything they can to help you if you're thinking of adopting into a multi pet household.

I would like to ad that WASH really does need this makeover. The Cat Castle was the best thing that ever happened for the cats. It really needs to be fixed so they can have a place to run and get out of those cages. The dogs need a make over, too. A more comfortable place to sleep is really needed for them. Everyone there does what they can, but more money is needed to keep this shelter in good working order. Anything I can do or anyone else is greatly appreciated. This money would be the best thing that could happen for the shelter. They really need it.

I agree with your comments. I am a volunteer with the shelter, and we so desparately need better facilities. I'd love to see that cat castle back up, better runs for the dogs, and overall better, bigger, new facilities. I hope WAHS gets in the top 20!

It is wonderful that you are able to provide a home for so many cats. I only have two cats but to see their interaction with each other, I would always have more than one cat. The WAHS has so many beautiful cats for adoption and all need loving homes. I agree, the staff is always willing to help and answer questions no matter how busy they are.

Thank you so much for the kind words. This shelter is great and we could be greater with more help and a better facility. Keep coming back and tell everyone you know what a good experience you had. Word of mouth is the best advertising.
