This place is awe some i have some feral cats out in my backyard and garage, a mama cat had 5 kittens last January. I got them fixed and relocated before i could catch her through the summer. It was hard to do. She was pregnant again and delivered 2 more babies. Went to cat welfare? Got vouchers. Mamma cat fix for $20. One babie is fixed one more to fix, they are a blessing, wonderful bunch of people. But it a process but it's worth it
My dog needed an enucleation and they were able to provide the needed care quickly. Please be patient with staff as they are SUPER busy on surgery days (probably all days) during drop off times. Would recommend staff reminding dog owners to bring current vaccination records prior to drop off. Thanks for taking care of Ellie.
Was referred to this place by cat welfare. Went to Wednesday clinic and after waiting 3 hours (was registered at 8:15 and left at 11:20) Paid $250 to have them pull my cat's tooth that was abscessed and she came home with pus oozing out of both eyes and they chopped her whiskers on the one side of her face instead of just moving them out of the way so she couldn't barely walk or even sit upright. I was reassured repeatedly that she would be able to eat just fine (she was already missing her front teeth on the other side of her mouth) and she couldn't eat. Multiple times in the 3 days following the surgery she would lay down with her face in the water out food. She tried to eat the special food we bought at the clinic for $6 a can and it was super soft and she couldn't even eat a golf ball size portion of food. Most of it was on her face when she tried to eat. I tried everything to help her eat including putting pureed food and clean water in syringes used for infant medicine but I couldn't save her and she died early this morning, less than a week after she was seen there. To say I am heartbroken and really upset is an understatement. The photos are from just 3 weeks ago. UPDATE: since I can't figure out how to reply to the owner's response I am updating my review to respond..... The veterinarian examined my cat physically and stated that all of her organs seemed to be fine and it was going to be another $200 plus dollars for blood work. So I trusted that the vet was being honest after examining her. At no point did anyone tell us how long we would have to wait to have her seen, and there were people taken before us that registered behind us because I was talking to them in line and knew they came in behind us. When I asked about this I had a very rude technician respond to me that the clipboards are put up and they just take them in order and so if it was put up in the wrong order they couldn't do anything about it. The young lady that took us back to the room and did the initial weigh-in and questioning treated us like we were horrible people and acted like we were liars when we said she had lost half of her body weight in 2 weeks and we didn't know why. This is proven by the pictures and we didn't appreciate being treated this way. I'm sorry that I don't have $200 + dollars to do blood work. I could have taken her to my own veterinarian had I known the prices were going to be virtually the same at this non-profit organization and at least I would have known that she was being taken care of in a clean, sterilized facility. The veterinarian also stated that she was going to be doing the surgery for my cat the following day. The fact that she stayed late and did it that night was not what she told me she was going to do. Am I supposed to be ok with the fact that her whiskers were chopped, wrecking her balance and her coming home with infection in both eyes bc the vet stayed later and did the surgery when she was tired?? The vet and the 2 ladies at the front desk were the only ones who were kind and I do appreciate that but I wish she would have been honest with me when I asked about my cat being able to eat. I don't believe that she ate and drank before you sent her home because I watched her try to eat and she couldn't. Way to take some responsibility instead of trying to make it look like my fault.
My cat got aspiration pneumonia from here. He is only 5 months old. He developed a cough 1-2 days after the surgery. I was super concerned about him so I brought him to my outside vet immediately. They did x-rays and found pneumonia has developed from the neuter assumed he aspirated after waking up from anesthesia so they started him on antibiotics. Everything was great once he finished his medication and he had no coughing fits for a few weeks. Just last week I noticed a cough come back and reached out to SOS, they were super responsive and helpful and got him in same day to get him checked. They did testing and ultimetly found out he has asthma and were super helpful and accommodating to us! I am so grateful since they also didn't make us pay out of pocket for this visit which helps us tremedously finacially as i am still in school and working minimally. Another bonus from this place is he had a complicated medication regimn and they measured out all the syringes and set it up for me which takes stress load off of starting him on a new medication. Thank you SOS for helping us we are soso appreciative of your help!
I showed up to SOS for their walk in Wednesdays I got there at 9 and only had to wait about an hour. My cat had an infection in her uterus and they got me on the surgery schedule same day to take care of my sweet girl. I am forever grateful to every worker and student that puts in so much hard work to help out our community. These people really care about our animals and it truly shows. THANK YOU SOS
