The kitties had a very special visitor... ❤️ Nolan here is paralyzed just like some of our cats. Lyla and Slippery Soap knew right away this was someone who truly understood them. Nolan got lots of snuggles and had such a big smile on his face! Thank you so much for socializing with our rescue kitties, Nolan, they are already missing your kindness! Come back again soon. 🥰

Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary is a safe haven for all- both kitties and humans! Anyone can visit during our open hours. Learn more about our cage-free sanctuary for kitties with disabilities and those at risk of euthanasia at www.safehavenpet.org 🐾

"H-hi.. my name's Fishtopher. 🐟 I'm new around here. I came to this place called Safe Haven from a shelter far away where I was at risk for something called euthanasia. I'm not really sure what that means, but I do know that I feel a lot safer, and this place is pretty big and cozy. ❤️ However, I'm kinda shy... and I like this box here. I use my big green eyes to watch the other kitties zoom around and play, but I'm just not ready for that. I prefer to swim solo for now. I really like people though, and would love if you would come in and pet me. I'm told I give 10/10 head bonks!"

There might be a million fish in the sea, but trust us, there's none like him! Fishtopher is READY for a furever home, he's been waiting long enough! 🥺 He doesn't love all the cats here, but a chill feline friend in a home could work out with a proper introduction!

Fishtopher is 2-3 years old, neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. If you think this catch could be the one for you come meet him and fill out an adoption application at www.safehavenpet.org 🎣🐾

(Look, the longer he's here the worse the puns will get... adopt this cutie!)

Sanctuary hours: Tues-Fri 12pm-6pm, Sat 12pm-4pm

LAUNDRY HELP NEEDED! In recent months we have had 50+ laundry volunteer sign ups and only a handful have come in. Our bins are piling up and we cannot afford a laundromat bill when so many lives are counting on us. 😥 If you previously signed up, please make sure that you are receiving emails from [email protected] (check spam) and stop in if you can. If you would like to volunteer please fill out an application at www.safehavenpet.org/applications/volunteer-application/ 🧼

If we could get just 20 people to commit to 1-2 bags a week we could save so much! 🙌 Thank you SO much to anyone who has been helping- you are truly appreciated more than you know! ❤️

P.S. We are also low on detergent, if anyone can send some our way we would greatly appreciate it! Any brand unscented or "free and clear"!

“Pet cats, take naps!” 😴🥰 Cat Grandpa Terry has been making rounds on the internet again! Here are a few recent photos and answers to common questions I see on posts. 👴🏻

“Is Terry still there?” YES! Terry comes in weekly and doesn’t plan to stop anytime soon! 🙌

“How is napping helpful?” Safe Haven takes in kitties with disabilities and special needs. Sometimes we have cats who are unsocialized. When Terry naps on our couches it tells the scared kitties “okay, this human isn’t a threat”. They sense his calm and loving presence and snuggle up with him. Then they go on to become socialized with more humans and find furever homes! 🥰 Anyone visiting is welcome to do the same- though we can’t guarantee kitties will flock to you like they do with Terry!

“Is he physically/mentally okay?” Terry is in good health, don’t worry! He keeps up with doctor visits and stays home if he is ill. If you ever see him using a towel as a blanket it’s so that our incontinent/paralyzed kitties don’t leave a mess on his clothes, not because he’s cold! We have plenty of blankets or pillows should he ever need any! 🛏️

“Is this really a job?” No! Terry is a retiree and volunteer, he is not paid. Even if we tried he wouldn’t take it- he wants every penny possible going towards the kitties. He only wishes every person who saw his story could contribute so that we can continue to be a “safe haven” for both kitties and people for years to come. 🥹

If Terry and his catnaps have made you smile please consider sending in a donation of any amount. ❤️ Every single penny adds up! Donations can be made via Facebook, at www.safehavenpet.org/donate, or www.venmo.com/safehavenpetsanctuary

P.S. Please TAG Safe Haven in any content involving Terry! All he wants is for his naps to benefit the kitties- when folks online take advantage of his story for their own gain we have a problem. Help us by continuing to bring awareness to our sanctuary. ❤️

Thank you!
- Safe Haven, Cat Grandpa Terry, and the kitties!

URGENT $5 FRIDAY: Moomin's start to the new year is NOT going well. 🥺 Just before Christmas staff noticed he was refusing food and not acting like his usual charming self. Turned out his teeth were bothering him, and a painful abscess on his chin had developed! Just when we thought he was in the clear ANOTHER abscess was discovered today. Poor boy has undergone 3 (!!) procedures now with a 4th on the schedule. Multiple drains, chin staples, cone of shame.. he can't catch a break. 💔 His constant cries are heartbreaking- he misses all of his kitty friends in the sanctuary.

Moomin isn't handleable without anesthesia, so along with his surgeries he needs to go under for exams and cleanings. We're looking at $1-2,000 at least for just one kitty right off the bat in 2025! 😥 Please consider donating ANY amount you can spare today, every single penny adds up! Keep Mooms in your thoughts, he's a trooper!

Donations can be made through Facebook, at www.safehavenpet.org/donate or at www.venmo.com/safehavenpetsanctuary (make sure it's spelled correctly!)

THANK YOU!

ADOPT ME: Meet Nelson! 🐈 This sweet kitten was found outside all alone seeking safety and love. Now all he’s missing is a furever home. 🏠 If you’re looking for a snuggly, social, and playful pet this is the kitty for you! He LOVES soaking up attention and makes friends with anyone he meets! Nelson is on a special prescription diet to keep his tummy happy and healthy. (Purina Pro Plan EN Gastroenteric) 🍽️ Due to his dietary restrictions he is in a private suite in the sanctuary. He spends his days waiting for visitors and hoping someone will fall SO hard that they won’t be able to imagine life without him. 🧡

Come in and meet Nelson during open hours! To apply to adopt visit https://www.safehavenpet.org/pet/nelson/

Please SHARE! 🙏 What’s one thing each of these animals have in common? They were all spared from euthanasia and given a second chance here at Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary. These are just *some* of the innocent, precious lives we were able to rescue in 2024. These are animals whose lives were at stake due to disabilities, illnesses, or for simply taking up space in overcrowded shelters…. 💔 Our goal is to save TWICE as many next year, but we can’t do it without you! Please consider signing up for a monthly life-saving donation. Even just $5 12 times a year can go a long way! If you can’t commit to a monthly expense, we understand. Just send over any amount you can spare today. Ring in the new year by making a HUGE difference in the lives of at-risk animals.

Whoever adopts Sox better write important notes in their phone, because he’s notorious for stealing paper, writing utensils, and more! 🚨 This little kleptomaniac has no shame. Charge after charge and he keeps going back for MORE. Security cameras? Witnesses? He doesn’t care. Whatever his thieving kitten teef want he gets! Please share to find this mischievous kitten a furever home! While you may never see that grocery list you set down, you’ll always have his purrs and snuggles. He can make you laugh on your worst day- maybe that’s why he does it! 😹❤️

🧦 Sox is 7-8 months old, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He would prefer to go home with another kitten or have a playmate at home. Meet him during open hours and apply to adopt at https://www.safehavenpet.org/pet/sox/
