My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

On February 23, 2024, a cat was left in a carrier outside of the Great Falls Animal Shelter. The cat was scanned and he was identified as Popsicle, adopted from the Pet Paw-see in 2019.

In speaking with the adoptive family, they felt they did nothing wrong. The gal’s husband had to get to work, so he left the carrier outside of the shelter and he left a voice message on their answering machine.

Odd thought… the family stated they did not know they could call the Pet Paw-see. A contract had been signed when the adoption took place and it was explained in detail that we will be there for the pet parent, as well as our cats, and to contact us if they are unable to keep their pet.

The family explained Popsicle had multiple times inappropriately urinated and they could not handle it any longer. They had taken him to their veterinarian. Nothing was medically found and he was put on anxiety medication.

Upon Popsicle coming back into our program, our vet did her magic and he was diagnosed with stones in both of his kidneys. Medical care has been initiated and we pray Popsicle’s medical condition can be corrected.

We are not here to criticize, but to educate. When you adopt a pet from a rescue, a shelter or an adoption center.. please contact that organization. If it’s a reputable organization, ALL welcome their pets back into their program.

Please do not abandon your pets … we believed in you when we adopted to you. Please believe in us.
