Quote----As for a fee... I certainly expect to pay a fee to a rescue so long as they are a 501(c)(3)----Quote

what does 501 status have to do with paying an adoption fee?

All 501(c)3 means is that they have tax exempt status with the IRS it does not mean that they are a good rescue or that they deserve special treatment.

I know people that operate rescues without 501(c)3 status that do an excellent job and i know of quite a few that have 501(c)3 status that just plain suck.

IRS tax status has nothing to do with quality of care, adoption fees/adoptions, care or the honor of the individuals involved with the rescue itself.

its just a tax thing , no more and no less
