My story

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

Raven is a gorgeous 1-2 year old black cat looking for her forever home!

Raven is a petite girl full of sweetness and spunk. She loves people but she is initially shy with new ones, although she’s getting quicker and quicker at warming up to strangers as she realizes how nice they all are! She has a beautiful glossy black coat, the tiniest tuft of white on her tummy, and HUGE eyes! She reminds us of Toothless from the movie How To Train Your Dragon.

Raven is playful and curious—she is always on a mission, whether that is exploring new places to nap, running sprints with her foster brothers, or winding around her human's legs asking for pets. Raven also likes to perch on people's shoulders and rub against the back of their heads- so cute.

Raven is rambunctious when she is active and sleeps for the rest of the day. She likes climbing up high and would be great in a home with a cat tree or other tall cat-friendly furniture to climb.

Raven currently lives in a 2-bedroom house with 2 people and 2 cats. She does great with other cats! She likes to play and snuggle with her foster siblings. Even though she isn't technically a mama cat, she loves young cats and kittens and apparently took all the kittens under her wing when she was in the shelter. She would do fine with kids, but probably would be most comfortable with older kids with more predictable movements- she is very suspicious about anything that feels like chasing and would probably give younger kids a wide berth for a while. Dogs are unknown- she does great with cats and might be great with dogs too, but we can't say what her experiences with dogs were like in the past.

Raven would be great in a home with another cat or two to play with, or a person who has energy to tire a cat out with daily play. She will totally blossom in the right house, she is a sweet girl with so much love to give her people!

There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown. All ages and breeds are best estimate.

Adoption fees include a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%.

All cats have received comprehensive veterinary care and tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV unless otherwise stated. Cats are up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations and have been spayed/neutered, treated for fleas and/or ear mites, de-wormed, and microchipped. Please note there may be additional follow up visits and boosters that are not covered by Pet Haven after adoption.

Additional adoption info

Pet Haven is a foster-based rescue. Our animals live with foster families until they are placed in permanent homes and their foster families get to know the dogs and cats learning important information about the animals. For example, the foster family will know if the dog or cat is good with other animals or children, and will have a good idea of what kind of training, attention, and special needs the pet may require. This makes our foster families great resources for potential adopters!

More about this rescue

Our Mission
Pet Haven improves the lives of pets and the people who love them by rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs and cats; reducing pet overpopulation by supporting spay and neuter efforts, and providing resources to people that help strengthen the human-animal bond.

Our Vision
A Minnesota where all pets live in safe, loving homes.

Our Values
Excellence in service and care; community; integrity; innovation; perseverance; compassion; a rewarding place to volunteer

How We Help
Spay/Neuter Initiative Program: Providing support to end pet overpopulation in Minnesota
Owner Surrender: Providing a safe haven for pet owners
Foster: Committed to finding forever homes for cats and dogs
Phoenix Fund for Special Needs: Providing veterinary care for animals in need of healing
What We Do
We help dogs and cats find homes with loving families through foster-based care. Every dog and cat lives with a foster family until they find their forever families. We provide all of their basic needs including proper food, veterinary care, behavior training, and supplies.

Through in-home fostering, we learn about each animal’s temperament, personality, likes/dislikes, and any medical needs. With this first-hand information, we can then find the right family for each dog and cat.

Our volunteers also educate the public on responsible companion animal care and represent respect for animals at all times. Whether we’re working with prospective new families, meeting people at public events, or socializing with friends and family, we encourage others to view and treat their pets as members of the family. We are their guardians, and they depend on us for companionship and care.


We spay/neuter prior to adoption.
We microchip all our Pet Haven Pets and remain as a secondary contact.
We make sure all pets are up to date on required vaccinations
We test for Heartworm and Lymes in all our dogs and are transparent in the results and treament
We test for FeLV/FIV and are transparent in the results. We believe that cats who test positive still deserve a chance at a quality home.
We do not euthanize animals unless they have untreatable health or behavioral conditions that deny them an acceptable quality of life or makes them a serious threat to people, other animals, or themselves.
How We Operate
We rely on adoption fees, tax-deductible donations, grants, and special events to keep our rescue operating. Our staff, Board of Directors, and volunteers have provided the passion and commitment to keep Pet Haven a safe haven for animals for almost 70 years.

We are committed to preventing pet homelessness through the SNIP Grant. Since 2005, we have granted more than $240,000 to organizations in Minnesota to support spay/neuter initiatives.
