They took away my friend’s bengal cat because they’re illegal in our area? and for some reason they couldn’t release the cat to him.They sold the cat to some random person in Connecticut because they are “legal” there, instead of releasing them to a friend that he had in Connecticut.The woman who sold the cat proceeded to say that my friend “doesn’t seem fit to care for a cat anyways” when he has been taking great care of his cat for months. Before this incident, he was going through a really tough time in life, and got the cat as emotional support.

Exceptional staff. Cares deeply about their animals. Drove from NH to pick up my new addition. Ann made sure I had everything I needed and continues to respond to any questions I have. If you have the means and patience to do so, save a pup today at Warwick Animal Shelter!

I have never felt more unwelcome while trying to adopt a kitty in need.

Terrible reviews from 2015, 2017 and 2018, and this one in 2022 should NOT be ignored. The Director of this facility should finally try paying attention to her problematic employee issue. I do feel bad for the animals as they are innocent and for the other nice woman who worked there as she seemed a decent person. So to them, I am sorry. There is one rude woman who works there (who has been mentioned in other people's reviews) whom they allow to speak to people who walk in. Why after years of people pointing out that this woman is NOT suitable to deal with the public you allow her to continue is a mystery. Tax payer dollars at work paying the salary of this city employee to be entirely rude to people who just want to help by adopting animals in need- unacceptable. I had a pet cat pass last year of kidney disease and this witch of an employee had the nerve to immediately say out loud, to my face, "Seven years old died of kidney disease?! Did you put her on a special diet?" I nearly wanted to burst into tears right then and there but I waited until I got in the car. My cat had a congenital issue that never would have been picked up at any regular vet exam because it took an ultrasound to find out that she was born with smaller than usual kidneys. Also, I struggled on a daily basis to get her to eat ANY food at all! I spent day after day trying every food imaginable just to get my cat to eat enough food each day to continue living on top of trying to manage her kidney failure issues. I did this in conjunction with advice from the vet, so to be asked after my cat is DEAD did I feed it a special diet to keep it alive- what in the actual f***!!! Was this a real question from a real human being!? Disgusting. I won't go much further because it got worse when she asked me how my other cat who was 14 years old and died 5 years ago died. Uhm.. CANCER. She was 14 and had stomach cancer! I spent thousands trying to save her. What on earth? Her facial expressions and reactions, tone and comments were entirely RUDE, just rude. While it seems they take care of these animals well, they don't seem to actually want to adopt them out to a stable, caring home with this line of crazy, rude and repulsive comments and questions. I have been a cat mom for over 20 years to many cats and have loved them all and cared for each as best I could. This employee needs to be stopped from having public interactions due to having no 'bedside manner' of a health professional/vet. Seriously.

Update: so after much back and forth, we finally found out why they were being so fussy... The cats we were looking to adopt were extremely traumatized and needed to be socialized.You guys just broke my husband's heart. He was really looking forward to adopting Jasmine and Grace, but you had to stomp on his heart because you guys can't verify an out of state veterinarian record from 8 years ago! EIGHT YEARS AGO!!!!!! What if we had never had pets before? Even a friend of mine who is a vet tech thinks this is insane.We are willing and able to accept those two adorable purrballs into our lives and you led us on for 2 weeks... TWO WEEKS!!!! Only to be told to try a different shelter with more relaxed rules.What gets me is that there's this big to-do about adopting, not buying, pets but now I know why people buy! It's organizations like this that make it impossible to adopt!

I was trying to adopt a dog. They said sorry you have another dog in the house. The other dog in the house was training to become a therapy dog pre-covid. My dog that passed in October was over 17 years old in her previous home she was abused by the man of the house and hit with a broom. She was scared to death when my husband got close or if someone was sweeping the floor. But we gradually got her use to both. it takes time and patience. I am truly sorry that Warwick animal shelter feels that way. I guess they feel a dog in a cage, alone is better than having a big back yard, someone to love them. Why can't they invite people and their other pets to come in before they say sorry.
