Healthy Paws Whittier, California

I adopted my cat here and Dawn was super helpful during the whole process and said if my cat has any health problems to call her first and she’d help as best she could or point me in the right direction so I don’t get ripped off. You can tell she’s super knowledgeable about what she does and truly cares for the animals she has.

This place is awful and they don't take care of the cats in their "shelter". I adopted my cat from them sometime in December 2020 after my last cat had passed away. When I got to Healthy Paws the owner was rude and short with my mother and I and almost seemed like she wanted us out instead of our business. When we did convince her to let us look at the cats she had available she told us that several were not available to be adopted because they had some sort of infection. These sick cats were not separated from any of the other cats and they were all shoved into a large cage together. We asked about one cat in particular that she told us was unavailable and seemed to be a favorite of hers. Eventually, my mom and I settled on another cat that the owner was fine with letting us have even though he also had an "ear infection". We took this cat to the vet the next day and he was riddled with disease. He had an ear infection, a gum infection, a full-body fever, was covered in scabs either from his own scratching or other cats. His gums were so infected that 5/6 of his upper incisors fell out of his face when the vet tried to scrape plaque off of them during a routine cleaning. he was diagnosed with feline calicivirus, a highly contagious and possibly deadly respiratory virus. The vet said that it was very likely that he got it during his stay at the shelter and that it was a very real possibility that if I had not adopted him and started treatment as soon as I did he would have died. Please, PLEASE do not support this place and most of all do not surrender your cat here.

We love Healthy Paws. Dawn is awesome. She seriously loves animals, and it shows. We have adopted from here and it went great. If you drop by consider donating to her cat sanctuary, she really does take care of them.

I had just relocated to the area and was looking for a non-corporate place to buy cat food. This place had been highly recommended, yet the owners weren't friendly or polite. The husband, who was just sitting, wouldn't even get up to direct me to the cat food I sought, instead sending me to the wrong place too look. When it turned out they were out of that food, the wife proceeded to second guess me that I even fed that brand (Wellness) to my six cats. I left without buying anything and did not return, taking my business elsewhere. Very disappointing.

For a week we are cat sitting an older cat of one of my kid's. They forgot the cat's dry food. So I was sent out to buy some. The staff was extremely helpful and showed me the perfect food. The cat is really enjoying it. I encourage you to patronize them.

I buy frozen bone broth and it's a great price. Dawn always has it in stock. I also like that u can adopt kitties that need homes and they have a big area to hang out while waiting for their forever family.

Healthy food sold here. Friendly and informative owner. Love seeing all the adoptive kitties, hope they get new humans soon.

Dawn is very knowledgeable and helpful. I am so thankful for her.

The lady was very nice and she had a great selection of treats for cats. My daughter fell in love with the cats there. We will definitely be regulars.

We love Healthy Paws! They have such a great selection of quality foods. They also have a wonderful cat adoption. Dawn is very knowledgeable and helpful.

I have been buying my cat food here for quite some time. Dawn and her husband are very knowledgeable and always extremely helpful with any concerns I have about my cats. I recommend them to all of my friends and their experiences have been good, also. The quality of food they sell is much healthier than your big box stores. I'm happy to support local merchants!!

Dawn is awesome ! Always helpful and fill of knowledge !

I had a few cats (12 cats in total), that needed homes as my furbaby had kittens, plus the newborn kittens I had found under 2 weeks old. I called around to all these other rescues facilities for cats & no one could help me. I checked the facility & emailed Dawn with pictures of my cats, she said to bring them and as much as I was heartbroken ???? to give them away, they needed to find their furever families. Dawn had someone waiting to foster the newborns and the other 4 cats were also taken in. I am grateful that she was able to take them in they were beautiful calico & tortoise females, a male cat all black and white, plus a black female cat so gentle. It seems that cats bring their babies to my cattio for security. Great place!!!

Dawn is very kind, operates cat adoption service as well.

A Godsend, truly! Healthy Paws really helped us when we didn’t know where else to go so all my love goes towards them. Thank you for helping my family!

The woman working there was not friendly at all. If she's the owner or manager then I don't know how she expects to get business if she's not welcoming to her own customers. I had heard good things about their grooming so I inquired about getting my cat groomed. I even made an appointment. Then I thought I'd walk around since I'd never been there before. I even said aloud "I've never been here before but a friend recommended you". No response. No, oh let me show you around. No oh well let me tell you what we do here. I even went to look at the kitties up for adoption. The woman didn't come to see if I was interested in any of them. Either she's really shy or just has really bad customer service. But you can't afford to be shy when you own your own business. I'll never go there again.

This place is great. The husband and wife run this place and they are good people. The wife is a huge cat lover. They have a little cat rescue place in the back. You can donate to help with the cost or a adopt a cute little meowing furball. I only buy cat food from them. I rather be giving my hard earned dollars to them than anyone else. Skip Walmart and Target and come here. The prices are about the same, so you mind as well support them. Plus if you pay in cash, you get a little discount. Win-win situation. ♥️????????????????

I go here for Orijen. Fast, friendly service and fresh food. The cats they sell are well taken care of. There is a frequent buyer program for food with pricing better than Amazon for 25lb bags of Orijen.

Very caring owners .my cat all grown up. From a kitten 4 years ago

Quality family owned pet supplies store. Cat adoptions on site. Pay them a visit and support your community.

Watched my nephew bathe his dog, instead of the staff...didn't know this is available, atleast, not in So. California.

I adopted a cat from this place and paid 130 dollArs to "RESCUE " a cat and I brought it home it had a runny nose and diarrhea constantly. Took him to the vet and he had feline herpes and some king of new worm. We have spent a small fortune on this kitten now. Then I find out my friend got a cat from here to and it was the same thing herpes not eating well spent a ton on the cat. Just do ur homework cats arnt always low maintenance animals

The have everything for your dog or cat.

Great place, knowledgeable, friendly people. Lovely cat rescue and great selection of healthy foods for your pet.

The lady that runs the place is just the nicest helped me out with getting the right treats for my pittie. Highly recommended.

verry helpful and friendly customer service my favorite pet store!!!!!!!

In spite of highly rated reviews, I have to warn you that rate increase for the renewal is much higher than that of brand new policies, meaning premium for new customer is cheaper than premium for existing customer under exactly same conditions. I have been a customer for 6 years but last few years, they increased my premium over 20% each year. Currently I am paying for $58/month but I would pay $41 as a new customer with exactly the same condition. When I asked customer service for this discrepancy, they gave me convoluted excuses. I think they should reward customers who have been paying premiums for all these years instead of punishing them with high premiums. Maybe this is the their way to get rid of older dogs....

Excellent excellent excellent, this is got to be the best Mexican place i south of the 605, the food was delicious the service was good, the waitress was pretty, my wife was very happy, the margarita was good, not like that weak ass margarita that El Torito serves, I will definitely visit this place again, children are welcome, but let you know it is a classy place, the price is on the high low range, but the food is well worth it

Wonderful groooming services and open on Sundays!

The owner Dawn is so helpful and knowledgeable, she has a unique cattery not to miss and an extensive array of healthy pet food and supplies
