Not good. A certain white female kitten we wanted could not be available to us because she "was so small" and could only be adopted as a pair. We think that is ridiculous.

Much better donation than to Goodwill. People happy to accept goods while Goodwill seem like it was intrusive to deliver goods. I even had one center wanted me to do the unloading.

Such a beautiful facility with great staff and volunteers. We volunteer as 'socializers' and help specific cats to adjust to their environment and trust people in hopes of being adopted. Love FurKids and whare t they're doing for the rescue animal community. This location has 6 cat rooms upstairs and younger kitten rooms downstairs. Reach out and participate in an orientation if you want to volunteer. It's very rewarding. My teen daughter and I both volunteer.

I have three cats

I need to find a good home for a leukemia positive cat. He is neutered and has had the rabies and distemper shots. Very lovable and friendly. Can you help or advise where I might get help. I sent an email but have no response yet.

patricia t | Oct 8, 2019
Bev Rider | Oct 8, 2019

Did you send the email to fur kids? Another organization is called half the way home. They are a rescue group out of Woodstock. Try both for kids and half the way home. If you don't hear from her kids go ahead and email them again you can look their site up on Facebook. Best of luck with your sweetie ❤

I Have A 3 Week Old Kitten

I have a cat that doesn't get along with my dogs and taking revenge on my house she is 5 years old and is spayed I need to find her a good home can you take her and find a good home for her she is very loving but have to go get rid of her

vicki Spencer | Oct 8, 2019
Livy Riley | Oct 8, 2019

Furkids does accept surrenders, but you have to call them, and they have many requests like this, so it may take a minute for them to get back to you. If you absolutely must surrender your cat, please hold on to her until you can find her a home at a no kill shelter, or find a friend or family member that will provide a good home. I am sure there is someone out there that would love a cat and has no other animals! Under no circumstances should you abandon your cat or give her to a kill shelter like animal control- they are overcrowded and it is likely that animal control will just put her down. Please hold out for a new home for her.

I have 2 really sweet cats that I am no longer financially able to take care of, and I’m about to move into a house with a dog that they don’t get along with. Can I bring them here?

Nicki Hood | Nov 11, 2021
Vickie Harris | Nov 11, 2021

Call and ask. If they have room, they might accept them. But a donation from you would probably be involved.

Can I volunteer as a young teenager?

Kamdyn Durio | Oct 7, 2021
Valarie Jakes | Oct 7, 2021

Hi, I think so. You should stop by the Furkids headquarters and ask. They are a great organization.

Dana Tompkins | Oct 7, 2021
Dayn Riegel | Oct 7, 2021

I can't speak for them directly but I've never known them not to help. Hope it works out. Please don't give up on the little ones. Somehow this will work out.

Hi, in front of the house where I live, two small kittens arrived, they have no home, I feed them in the morning before I go to work, I return at night and I give them dinner. Can they come and rescue them? I'm worried they are going cold. Thanks

Holmes Trivino | Oct 7, 2020
Jackie “Jax” Jackson | Oct 7, 2020

I agree with Lisa Tyler. LifeLine goes out of their way to help. Check online for makeshift shelters to help keep them warm. You are so sweet to care about these babies.

Jami Alghassab | Oct 7, 2020
Kae saysstfu | Oct 7, 2020

You need to call the shelter. They take in cats yes. But you need to know the availability for cats. Great shelter. Just call and ask.

Is this a 501C3 organization?

Paul Herd | Oct 8, 2019
chandra swayampakula | Oct 8, 2019

Not sure but you can check with them. I believe you can donate and claim it in taxes.

Do you partner up with Fulton County Animal Services? It looks like such a sad place to be in..., it sure would be nice if you could pick up as many of those animals and foster them out until they get adopted. Please😔

Heather | Oct 8, 2019
P-4 | Oct 8, 2019

Have you seen how crowded their shelter is? Do you know how bad the problem is worldwide? This is the largest no kill shelter on the state.

I have a kitten who refuse to use the litter and will not let anyone come near him. If you get close he runs. I can't keep him . I can't even get close to him to try to take him to a shelter. Can you come and get him.

Tracy Jackson | Oct 8, 2019
Amani Shabazz | Oct 8, 2019

Its hard for young animals to adjust to new surroundings and it does take time, patience and love to get them to trust you... Especially if the animal is a rescue. But if its just too much and you sont want to invest in the pet, send furkids an email, i'm sure they can help.

Donna Chaput | Oct 8, 2019
Donna Chaput | Oct 8, 2019

I cant call, voice recordings. I dont want to spend an hour in traffic and then they say ok we got it. Seems like kind of a strange system to not confirm they have your app. If you have to go down there anyway why have an online app. Oh well. Guess I'll take off work to find out if they have it

Do I have to submit an application without even seeing the cat. There's no way of even knowing if it's available

Donna Chaput | Oct 8, 2019
Jesse Waldron | Oct 8, 2019

I think what they are looking for is your interest, they really are happy if you choose one, or come back later and choose one. Once you're approved they feel comfortable adopting to you, so if you choose a Kittie now or within I think 6 months you're good to go. Yeah, they do not want you choosing on looks alone, they want to see you and the Kittie will be happy together

Yeah, they are more of a rescue shelter. Sweet people, but they've got their hands full with kitties they have. You can feel more comfy if you can find someone directly and know little buddie is taken care of directly.

Allow us to pet her and feed her wet and dry food but another thing my kids noticed is if we out clean water outside for her she will not drink it but rather drink dirty water I am just trying to figure out what to do since we are moving April 30

Carrie Welch | Oct 8, 2019
Bev Rider | Oct 8, 2019

Try a different container or bowl. Dirty water can cause infections and even parasites in this cat.

Been trying to work with her to get used to the fact of being inside is safe from being outside so my question is is there anyway that either I can trap her or have someone come out and trap her to go to a non kill place cause I know she would be so

Carrie Welch | Oct 8, 2019
Monica Weems | Oct 8, 2019

Look up @the_original_trapking on Instagram he may be able to provide you some guidance on what to do also.

Doc Wolfson | Oct 8, 2019

This is a cat shelter but I don't think either one of the furkids shelters do breeds. They do rescues, rehabs, and adoptions. If you're looking for a Yorkie you might try a Yorkie rescue group

You'll need to contact the shelter directly. These questions are answered by community members and often not monitored by staff.

I have three rescued 4 week old kittens. They will be ready to leave feral mom (in our house) in another 2 weeks. Will Furkids take them and if so, are they caged or would they go to a foster? I can keep until a foster is available.
