Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
In Arizona, The Hermitage Cat Shelter takes in a few cats whose caregivers don't expect to outlive their feline companions. They charge around $1,500 for lifetime care.

Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
Maybe the person (second chance meows) who mentioned this rescue having a website and facebook page could post the links since others have never heard of them? I definitely agree with Beth and would want to know a lot more and err on the side of caution. I was thinking that for some cats, this type of environment (crowded, etc.) could provide to be stressful, which is the last thing you would want for a leukemia pos. cat.

Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
it sounds like she has taken quite a few cats just from people you are associated with. That would be a concern to me. Maybe taking too many. These places really need secondary people overseeing finances & day to day operations. There is one well known rescue I know of that has a fb page & was featured on the Halo Pets site,. I have a friend who drove 10 hrs to take a dog there. She returned home with the dog. She said there was no way she could leave it there. Lesson learned. Be really carefil & always make sure you visit the place in person. She may be great, but you really can't tell unless you go there.

Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
She has both a Facebook page and a website. I have had a few dealings with her in the past know people that have sent FeLV cats to her. She is well known in sanctuary circles and has a very good reputation. Personally I would not worry about sending a cat to her.

Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
Thank you Susan! And Lorrie. They have taken a few cats from our local shelter, and I know some who are taking one there tomorrow. A close friend has one pending retest this week who will otherwise be euthanized and we've since heard Suzy's will take, so I will pass this on. Susan, if you know where I can find direct feedback can you let me know, so I may share with those sending or considering sending cats there? I understand if you can't or don't have this information. Thanks so much for your input!!

Re: [Felvtalk] Suzy's Zoo in SC
Never heard of it and I've been researching sanctuarys for years. Do they have a website? Make sure they are legitimate and also charge at least $1,000 UP (mostly up) per cat as the ones who charge to little for the lifetime care of a cat will usually end up with too many cats and get shut down.
