[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The comment about the Fairfax county shelter doesn’t make any sense.  They are an open-access shelter.  Why would they NOT take healthy animals.  Either you misunderstood or you spoke with an idiot.  Since it’s a county shelter, a good portion of their funding is likely from taxpayers.  This is a service taxpayers would expect in return. [/quote]I was also turned away by Fairfax county shelter when I tried to help a stray. They suggested I let them go again or find a rescue.[/quote]Heres their policy: https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/animalshelter/catintake [/quote]

OP here - yes, this is the policy that they provided to me.

All the rescues are full too. The SPCA can't take her, but I may register as a foster with them. As to providing vet care on my own - it's really not a part of my budget and I'd rather do it under the guidelines of whichever org I end up working with so everything is in order for the cat to be adopted. And the cat is not ill.[/quote]
