Salem Sanctuary for Wayward Pets

Salem Sanctuary for Wayward Pets We are located in Cincinnati, Ohio.

SSWP began with two friends and has grown into a small network fighting for the same goals- helping/educating our community, spaying and neutering as many animals as we can, and rehoming into safe and loving homes.

🌟⭐️Klaus⭐️🌟

Sweet boy looking for a new home!!!

Klaus is about 8 yrs old and is a Tripod kitty!!! Klaus will be required to go to a home with NO pets and NO children. He can be very playful and sweet once he gets to know you but he is pretty skittish at first. He is neutered and has had his shots. Klaus is also chipped.

Klaus is looking for a loving, kind and patient guardian! Don't Let the missing leg fool you! Klaus is a sweet and playful boy once he gets comfortable! Klaus will need some extra attention while he gets used to his new home so we also will be requiring his adopter to do at least 4 behavioral sessions with me (completely free of charge). Klaus has been through some trauma in his past. He was thrown into moving traffic when he was 3 months old which caused serious injuries that required the amputation of his front leg and shoulder blade. Transitioning him into a new home will be very stressful for Klaus. His adopter will need to be dedicated to following my instructions. If you listen to my advice, his transition will be easy for him. We just want to find this amazing boy a wonderful and happy home!

Klaus has a past history of getting urinary blockages whenever he experiences significant changes or stress. Because of this, we recommend he sees a vet for a checkup at least once a year, preferably twice a year.

I am confident that with my help, his transition into a new home will be as easy as possible and will not cause a stress blockage. I will also go over all the signs to look for that may indicate a blockage. Cats are EXCELLENT at hiding their illnesses but there are always signs and I am more than happy to teach them to you!

I also do not recommend using a covered litterbox with Klaus. I do not believe he would do well with a covered litterbox because of his high anxiety. He will need a litterbox that is uncovered and not tucked away in a small dark space, such as a closet. It doesn't need to be in the middle of a room lol but it will need to be somewhere well lit and open like a spare room.

The ideal home for Klaus would be a quiet home. He needs a loving and patient guardian. Someone who will understand his boundaries and respect them. I would love to see him go to a home with someone who is either retired or works from home. Absolutely no other pets and no children. There will be no exceptions to this requirement. Please also keep in mind that Klaus will not take to you right away. You can definitely meet him before deciding to adopt but please keep in mind that the Klaus you first meet is not the true Klaus.

If you would like to meet Klaus, please reach out and I will set up a meet and greet! Please share this post far and wide so we can all work together to find his purrrfect family!!

Updated update: a foster has been found :) Thank you everyone for sharing this post!!!

Update: she was able to find another rescue that is able to foster them, however, the wait list is 1-4 weeks so we still need a foster, but the amount of time has been reduced to 1 to 4 weeks

URGENT! TEMPORARY FOSTER NEEDED!!!!

PLEASE SHARE!!! We only have until Sunday to find a foster!!!

calling all angels!!! We have 3 kitties needing fostered for 3 to 6 months. Their owner is dealing with a difficult housing situation and desperately needs someone to take in her 3 sweet kitties until she moves into her new, pet friendly, home. Fostering would be at least 3 months, up to 6 months. The kitties have all the supplies needed for a while and the cost of future supplies will also be covered. Absolutely no financial obligation is needed. They just need a warm home and lots of cuddles and pets. They are all very well behaved and would do well with other cats (with proper introduction - which I am more than happy to help with). They also do very well around children and have been nothing but gentle to the owner's daughter. They have never been around dogs but the owner is confident that with a proper introduction to a friendly dog, they would do just fine. All 3 cats are spayed/neutered and have never shown any type of litterbox aversions.

If you are interested in temporarily fostering these babies, please reach out for more details. I can also get you in touch with their owner if you'd like to speak to her directly.

Elderly 10 year old mutt, mostly weiner dog maybe some Jack Russell, needs a home ASAP. poor girl was abandoned by her owner and the neighbor was kind enough to take her in but she has to keep her in the basement because her existing dogs will not do well with a new pup sibling. She is very well behaved and desperately needs more people interaction. I am working on obtaining more information and will update the post once I have additional information on this sweet old girl! If you are interested in adopting her, please reach out to us on messenger and we will be happy to set up a meet and greet!

Her adoption fee is $25

These sweet babies are looking for their forever homes. They have all lost their guardian unexpectedly. These cuties aren't part of our rescue but we still want to do our part to find them the best home possible ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Delilah: white female, 10yrs old, deaf. SUPER sweet, good with kids, cats, dogs.

Sampson: black male, 12 yrs old, chill, laid back, also good with kids, cats, and dogs.

Bentley: lab mix, male, 8-9 yrs old, about 80lbs. Super sweet, calm, great on a leash, house broken and crate trained (although he was never crated in his previous home), in his previous home he lived with kids, cats, and dogs.

My friend's sister passed away unexpectedly a few days ago leaving behind 3 children, 2 dogs, and 2 cats. So far, one dog has found a home. Bentley, Delilah, and Sampson are still on the hunt for a forever home. My friend and her family are so overwhelmed, so I am trying my best to help them place these beloved pets. We are trying to find homes so we can avoid the overcrowded shelters. We are desperate to find homes for them.

Thank you! and please share!! ♥️🐶😻😻

Please share this post ❤️❤️

Look at how gorgeous Flora is?!

Flora has not received any applications and we have a feeling we know why. You see, Flora is not good with any other animals. She needs to be in a one-kitty household. Because of this, she was actually going to be euthanized all because she didn’t like the other cats and dogs in her previous foster home. Thankfully, Dr. Fette said she would not euthanize due to that reason and asked us if we would help find her the purrfect home.

Flora has been fully vetted and despite her not liking other animals, she is extremely sweet with people. **See video in comments**

If you think you may be interested in adopting Flora, please head on over to our website at furreverandaftercatsanctuary.org and go to our Adoption section 🐾

*UNDER CONSTRUCTION*

Hello All,

We've got some exciting things happening here at Salem Sanctuary for Wayward Pets!!

Our last available kitty was adopted yesterday! THANK YOU CANDUS for working so hard to find homes for our last few cats!!! Excellent work!!!!

We will be taking a short break from accepting any intakes. We are revamping our rescue process! As always, our goal is to save as many animals as possible while maintaining our commitment to a foster based rescue which requires a lot of careful planning!

We will still be active on our Facebook and we will also make sure to share adoption posts from other rescues during our temporary closure.

Cat behavioral assistance is also on hold for the time being. If you are having issues with a cat's behavior you can send us a message but I will not be able to do home visits for a short while. I will, however, help as much as I can via text.

Thank you everyone for your support these past few years! We look forward to our reopening in a few months! We will continue to accept donations while we are under construction. Having a savings is extremely important in a rescue because you just never know when an animal will suddenly need a veterinarian which can cost thousands of dollars! If you'd like to send a donation we have several platforms but our primary one is PayPal:

We also have Facebook pay (on our individual personal profiles), cash app and venmo! Send us a message for details on those, if needed!

Again, we thank you all for your support! Steph and I are not the only ones saving lives! You help save lives every time you donate, foster, adopt or share our posts!

🌟⭐️ADOPTION FEES PAID⭐️🌟

These lovely girls Moon (orange and white) and Sky (orange) have been with us for over a year. We are very happy they are no longer in the streets, but these girls deserve their own home. They’re around 3-4 years old and fully vetted, spayed, tested negative, and ready to have a home. They’ve been around dogs, other cats, and are fostered with kids so they would do well in almost any situation with a proper introduction. Please consider adding one or even both of them to your home. They would love to love you. We would prefer to see them go to a home together, but it's definitely not required!

We absolutely cannot believe these sweet girls haven't found a home yet. They are completely healthy, have absolutely no behavioral issues, they are great with all people, kids, cats and dogs and they are absolutely gorgeous!

Their adoption fees have been PAID IN FULL by donation from their current foster in the hopes we can finally find them the loving homes they deserve! They are fostered in Cheviot, Ohio.

Upcoming kittens!!!

We just got a couple kittens! One of our fosters found some kittens and brought them inside. She's got a pretty full house right now so everyone send her well wishes and lots of good luck vibes! It's never easy integrating surprise kittens into a home where you already have cats. 🥴

As some of you may know, I'm a HUGE Shark Week fan! 🦈🦈 So I was secretly hoping we'd get some kittens in this week so I could give them shark week themed names 😊😊

Stay tuned for pictures and more information!!

It'll be a little while before they are ready for adoption. They need to be cleaned up, vetted and quarantined first but we will keep you all posted!

Donations needed!

As many of you know, we operate almost completely off of donations to our rescue. We wouldn't be here without all of you! This is a pretty busy time of year for rescues so we are in desperate need of donations! Everyone with pets knows how crazy expensive it is to take an animal to the vet! In many cases it's $100 just to walk in the door! That's why we need your help!

Any and all donations are very much appreciated. Even $5 can go a long way!! Thank you all in advance and THANK YOU for all those who have supported us in the past, present and future! You guys are all rockstars and I hope you know that you've saved lives :)

Jax is still looking for his forever home or for a foster! **adoption fee already paid!!**

Jax is 10 years old, neutered and UTD on vaccines

Jax is FELV+ so we will not be allowing him to go to a home with other cats who are not also FELV+. Absolutely no exceptions.

Jax does VERY well with dogs and would also do well with kids (ages 7 and up preferred but can be younger if they have already learned the proper ways to interact safely with animals)

This handsome guy is incredibly playful. He is SUPER goofy! Jax is also extremely confident and social and will greet all your guests at the door :) When you walk by him and he wants you to pet him he sticks his paw out and taps on your arm as if to say "ummm hello!!!!???? I'm in need of some attention please!" Jax makes me laugh at least a dozen times a day! If I could keep him as my own personal pet, I wouldn't even think twice about it! He's the perfect companion. While he would do well with dogs and other FELV + cats, he would also do very well in a home with no other animals. If you're looking for the type of cat that will make you laugh and smile every single day then look no further!! He's the perfect kitty for you!

His requirements are:
1. He must stay on a wet food only diet. - currently on fancy feast but he loves all wet food
2. He must go to the vet at least once a year for a check up to make sure his FELV is in check.
3. Again, absolutely no FELV negative cats in the home.
4. As is the same with all of our animals, he will be required to be an indoor only cat. He does like to go on leashed walks, but absolutely no unsupervised outside visits. He would LOVE a catio space!

Jax's adoption fee has been paid by donation from his prior owner who is just as eager as we are to find this sweet boy a new home!!! If you are interested in adopting Jax or fostering him, please reach out to us so we can set up a meet and greet!!!

Stripey derp boy is still available. He’s had exactly ONE meeting and has been ghosted by countless potentials. Give the goofy boy a chance!

Mulligan, 6 months old. Neutered, fully vetted.

This guy is a gorgeous black tabby. I’ve seen this coloring called a ghost tabby, which is very fitting for him- he has the personality Jackson Galaxy refers to as a wallflower. That means he is timid and shy a lot of the time, so he will not be going to a home with small children under age 10 or so. He is best buddies with my outgoing cat so he would do best with another cat who will encourage him to be brave. He also adores my dogs now that he has been here a while- he rubs in her and gives her head bumps. He would do well with a variety of pets in a proper introduction. He loves to snuggle and cuddle once he is comfortable. He has a great purr! He even gives me face kisses- he is truly a very sweet boy. He likes when I rub his belly and call him the chubby bunny. 🤣 He will definitely need slow introductions and patience. He does love to play with toys and they encourage him to come out and be social as well! He will eventually open up in his new home and be a little snuggly Angel, but that will take time. He would do well starting off at his new home in one room and slowly branching out into the house as he gets more and more comfortable. We are always happy to help with cases like his.

His adoption fee is $45 and we are located in Cincinnati. Please do not apply if you have small children, but please do consider one of our other kitties!
