A bunch of liars and we strongly feel they racially profile people going in to adopt. They lied about my cat having ringworm keeping her for a month. When i went to pick her up i asked what medications she might need to keep the ringworm away... the behavior doctor looked confused and said she never had ringworm. What their intentions were in making such a lie like that?? I wish i knew.
We also adopted a second cat so she has a companion since we work such long hours. As the volunteers ask the quetionaire on cat experience i felt like i had to over explain my answers as she stared us up and down like we were liars, or abusers. Anyway the racial tension became very clear to us. A few minutes later a short fat white woman (probably some kind of supervisor) walked into the adoption waiting room and loudly/ rudely told us we werent qualified to adopt a cat at that moment. To come back in 2 weeks and walked away leaving us feeling embarrased.. Like we did something wrong right in front of our 5 year old son. Left feeling like we werent worthy of respect because of our skin color.
When we came back to adopt the second cat they had no info on him, i asked if he was a street cat and the volunteer played stupid as if she didn't know. We liked him so much we adopted him but the longer we have him the more we realize he was in fact a street cat. We work on his habits regadless but the aspca shouldn't lie to clients just to get rid of the cats quicker.
Its been a month now and the way these people treated us and lied to us on both occasions weighed pretty heavy. Which is why i feel people of color especially may need to read through this.
Untrustworthy, liars and rude. Nasty people, never again.
