My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This shy little girl was caught with the rest of her family as part of a colony near to us, and while she’s still settling in and getting used to not having to fend for herself, it’s obvious that she’s going to be an absolute sweetheart once she starts to let her personality shine through her uncertainty.
Saffron was trapped with her three kittens - Tiny, Sparkles, and Sandy (who are also looking for homes!)- and her sister, Truffles and Saffron is definitely the shyest of the family. Since they moved into our cat room, Saffron has started to settle in, but she still likes to hang out in out of the way places, like the middle of a cat tree or partially behind a curtain, where she’ll be able to see what’s going on but not immediately spotted, but if you go up to her slowly and let her sniff you before trying to pet her, she’ll reward you by leaning into the scritches and starting the quietest little purr you’ve ever heard.
Because she’s so shy, right now we’re looking to place her in a home with no kids or kids who are older than 10, since loud noises still scare her and she’s gotten along well with the other cats in the room, so she would be okay with one or two cat friends (and would probably do extremely well if she could be adopted with her sister!). We haven’t dog tested her yet, but would probably do best in a home without dogs.
Saffron is about a year old,spayed, up to date on her vaccinations, and microchipped, so she’d be ready to go into her new home as soon as we are able to find her one! We don’t have any set adoption fees, but do ask that a donation be made at the time of adoption, and for Saffron we are asking for a donation of $250.
If you are interested in adopting Saffron you can fill out an adoption application for her on our website, waywardranch.org, or let us know if you have any questions!

More about this rescue

Our Mission: To provide a quality life to the animals that need it most.

Wayward Ranch Animal Sanctuary, Inc. is a 501c3, tax exempt non-profit organization and all donations to our sanctuary are tax deductible.

The Dream:

Wayward Ranch was founded by three friends who, after working for other rescues for a long time, realized there was something missing from the average rescue model. No animal is perfect, and in the typical shelter system any behavioral concerns an animal had coming in are just exacerbated the longer they are kenneled or caged waiting for a home.

Many local shelters have taken to shipping puppies up from the south because they are more “adoptable” than the shelter animals we have here. However, this just floods are market and takes homes and resources from our local animals who are suffering as a result.

We are committed to a different type of rescue experience. We are a unique combination of adoption and sanctuary facility, taking the pressure of euthanasia away from animals who may not be generically adoptable. We also help our animals thrive, rather than deteriorate, as they wait for forever homes using a combination of enrichment and training techniques.
