As the weather chills, keeping your kitty safe by keeping them indoors is even more critical.

We say it a lot: we can't do this work without your support. What does that mean? It means your support - as an adopter, a volunteer, a community partner, a donor – has helped us accomplish all of this since July: 🐾 Found homes for 477 cats and kittens with wonderful families in 21 North Carolina counties 🐾 Altered 2,725 cats and dogs in the SAFE Care Spay/Neuter Clinic 🐾 Provided families in need with over 5,515 pounds of pet food through our Pet Food Pantry

Think LOST, not STRAY!

On average, a cat should have at least 30 minutes of play per day. You can break up playtime into small bits throughout the day or have a dedicated longer time for your kitty to get moving. Pick out a variety of toys for your cat to play around with all day long! --> https://www.safehavenforcats.org/news/feeling-fit-and-feline-how-to-get-your-cat-moving/

ME-WOW! Over 850 volunteers lent their paws and hearts to help us each year. That’s a lot of purr-sonal dedication! Special thank yous to the volunteers who gave the most hours: 🐾 Melanie Loury (547 hrs) 🐾 Kristine Adamson (359 hrs) 🐾 Mark McClintock (348 hrs)

Helping Hurricane Milton Cats

SAFE Haven has 10 new well-traveled guests! Thanks to our long-time volunteer Chris, these sweethearts made it safely from Sumter County, Florida, to Raleigh, North Carolina. These little ones are now in the loving care of our staff and volunteers and will be available for adoption soon. We could help these kitties impacted by Hurricane Milton thanks to your support. Last week, you helped make space in the shelter during our adoption special week so we could say yes when the need arose. Want to continue that positive support? Donate now to help us care for our Florida crew and cats like them: https://www.safehavenforcats.org/donate/general-donations/ Huge thanks to Chris and all our amazing volunteers who make rescues like this possible. You are the heart of SAFE Haven! 💖

Our volunteers are the cat's meow, coming back again and again to care for our feline friends. Your work doesn’t just stack up in hours; it’s the love and care that makes SAFE Haven fur-ever grateful! 🐾

Welcome Western NC Kitties!

We've just welcomed 12 new cats to SAFE Haven from Western North Carolina. A tremendous thank you to our friends at Forsyth Humane Society, who brought them from hurricane-affected areas to us here in the Triangle. As we work through the intake process and get to know these kitties better, we look forward to sharing more about them while we prepare them for their next big step: finding loving forever homes! 🏡 Your donations help us to answer the call for support like this from areas impacted by Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton. Whether you can spare $5 or $50, every dollar means more lives saved: https://www.safehavenforcats.org/donate/general-donations/.
