The Boring Safe Haven

💫 2025 In Review 💫

Honestly, we think 2025 has been our best year yet…
We heavily ramped our community involvement. To name a few:
- Hosted our first online auction
- Partnered with Hazel’s House for a couple adoption events
- Had our first local adoption event in Boring
- Participated and had a parade float in the Sandy Mountain Days Festival Parade
- Participated in fundraising events involving kitten cuddles
- Hosted our first holiday bazaar with such great vendors

For what we did with the kitties this year ~
😼 57 intakes!!
😻 59 adoptions!!
😸 68 spays and neuters!!! Some of which were to help the community
😽 ending 2025 with 21 cats in our care, most of which are currently awaiting adoption

What do we anticipate 2026 to look like for us?
✨ focusing in on supporting the cats and kittens of Clackamas County first and then other counties when we’re able to
✨ more intakes & more adoptions
✨ continuing fundraising efforts
✨ continued support for AND from our community

We would love to double ALL of our figures for 2026 but can’t do it without YOUR help.
How can you help?
🌟 Apply to adopt and/or spread the word to others about adoption, whether it’s from us, another rescue or your local animal shelter
🌟 Apply to become a foster, we absolutely cannot do this without fosters
🌟 Share what we’re doing within the community - spread the word!!
🌟 Donate - whether monetary (we would love some recurring donors), or in-kind donations like food, bedding, litter, toys, supplements, vaccines, etc.
We have an Amazon Wishlist.
We have an account with BottleDrop.
We are part of the Fred Meyer Community Rewards program.
Reach out to us for more info on these!!
🌟 Offer to help us by donating your time to transport - we need help with transporting to the vet and to our spay/neuter clinics
🌟 Instead of surrendering kittens to be given up for free at your local feed store, consider reaching out to us first. We would love to help if we have the capacity, or at least facilitate finding another rescue to help.
🌟 SPAY & NEUTER YOUR PETS - whether they’re indoor only, indoor & outdoor, outdoor only, stray or feral, do it!!! Ask us for help if you don’t have the funds or resources 💜

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone that helped us have a great year and helped us continue to make an impact on the surrounding community.

Let’s ramp it up once again in 2026!!!!

Hazel's House is always so kind to us 💗🐱

Not the most organized picture but….. a huge thank you for the wet and dry kitten food and the gastro dry food!!

We appreciate you always and this will be an immense help to us. Also remaining hopeful that the gastrointestinal diet will get some of our GI sensitive kitties on the fast track to healing their guts!

Please give a warm welcome to this dilute brother and sister duo we picked up today 💛🩶

These two littles are super sweet, quite curious and are already being loved on by a great foster family!

Little sister has something going on with her back end, so she’ll be seeing our friends at Guardian Veterinary Care tomorrow. Wish her luck!! 🥲
