G. Sawamura Review of Lollypop Farm, Humane Society ...

My daughter adopted a cat from Lollypop in May 2015. He was an older cat with a sweet personality. He was in the cat room with may other cats. They went over his health history and told us his only problem was his weight - he weighed 21 lbs. They said to feed him fish oil to help with his dry flaky skin.
Two weeks later, my daughter and I both had ringworm. The cat's dry skin was a VERY bad case of ringworm which is very contagious and went undiagnosed by their vet. Being in the cat room and petted by many people every day, he was also exposing visitors to ringworm, as well as all of the other cats.
My daughter worked to rid her apartment of the ringworm spores and quarantined the cat while he was being treated. She loved him a lot and was willing to do anything to make him well.
Two months after adopting him and over $1000 in medical bills, she had to put him down. It was very traumatic for her, but there was nothing else she could do. The veterinary hospital believes his ringworm was so bad because his immune system was not functioning. The day he died, he had no white blood cell count and they suspect he had feline aids.
I would not recommend Lollypop for pet adoptions based on this experience.
