I'm honestly rather appalled that anyone would feel that the rescue shouldn't try to recoup some of their costs. How else are they going to continue to take in more animals?

I actually adopted a boa today from a rescue that asked me for a $25 fee after I saw the vet records indicating that they had spent many times that much getting him healthy. I left more, about half of what they'd spent on him, in the hopes that they'll be able to afford to KEEP taking in needy critters. My guy would have been euthanized weeks ago if not for the rescue.
