🚨WE NEED YOUR SOCKS. 🧦🚨

Not your socks.

Your baby’s socks. Or your neighbor’s baby’s socks. Or those one-off baby socks mysteriously hiding in your laundry room.

During surgeries, the clinic uses baby socks to keep kitty paws warm. We don’t care if they’re mismatched, gently used, or covered in cartoon dinosaurs. If they’re baby-sized, we want ‘em!

Drop off at SAFE Haven or send reinforcements by mail. Do it for the toe beans. 🐾

Hi! I’m Birch, your future best buddy and resident tumbleweed of fun. I’m just a kitten, but I’ve got big dreams: chasing toys, climbing cat trees, and curling up in your lap for a cozy nap. I’ve got a soft tabby coat and a big heart, and I’m ready to bring joy, mischief, and purrs to your home. Come meet me at SAFE Haven—I’m small, but my love is mighty!

One in four pet owners who give up their pets to a shelter say it is because they cannot afford to care for them. By providing temporary pet food assistance, the pet stays in their loving home and out of the shelter. That’s why we operate the Pet Food Pantry. Here’s how you can help: https://www.safehavenforcats.org/programs-and-services/pet-food-pantry/

I'm Cheez Whiz, a high-energy, inquisitive, and athletic boy. I enjoy wand toys, SOME other cats, and watching birds and squirrels. I can get overstimulated, so an experienced cat person is best. Sound like you? Come down to SAFE Haven to meet me!

Hello there, fine human! I’m Bartholomeow, a dashing gentleman with a name as grand as my whiskers. 😺 I enjoy the finer things in life: soft blankets, head scritches, and gazing out the window like I’m in a Jane Austen novel. I may look regal, but I’m all heart and cuddles. Think you have room in your castle (or apartment) for a charming feline companion? Come meet me at SAFE Haven—I’ve been waiting for you: https://www.safehavenforcats.org/adopt/meet-the-cats/adopt-me/?animal_id=16224&cat_name=Bartholomeow
