Okay I don't want anyone getting offended over this but....
I also volunteer for a rescue and I also adopted Gabby from the rescue. She's 2 yrs old and health is great. My adoption fee was 500.00 but she was already spayed, had blood work, up to date on shots & had a dental done. My vet charges over 500.00 for spay and dental alone. I also had no problem knowing that part of the money was going to save another baby's life.
My other thing is if you cannot afford a high adoption fee then you should consider adopting at a later time. Anything can happen to these little ones and you have to be prepared to pay for high vet bills. I have seen so many little ones come back to rescue after being adopted because they got hurt or sick and the owners could not afford the vet bills. Again sorry if I offended anyone but this is how I feel but I also want to thank you for thinking rescue. |
