Story
🩷 Meet Lily, a beautiful and charming 9-year-old feline who is in need of a new home. I have had the pleasure of caring for her since she was a kitten, but unfortunately, our home is no longer suitable for her, one reason is due to the presence of our two dogs. I am seeking a suitable home where she can thrive and receive the love and care she deserves. If you or someone you know may be interested in opening up your heart and home to Lily, please let me know! This decision has come with long thought and heavy heart as Lily is very special to me! Lily is loving and a great cuddler! She is wonderful with kids and honestly did good with our first dog but now with two it has just become too much for her. It’s stressful for her and she is not getting the love and attention she needs. Lily is healthy with no medical issues. Up to date on vaccines, spayed and front nails declawed.

Story
Sugar is a healthy female cat. She enjoys a lot of alone time. Very skittish around noise and commotion. She will occassionally like to cuddle up to you once she knows you for some head butts and purrs. She can tolerate dogs and cats, but is on the grouchy side with them. No fights, but she likes to assert her dominance with them. She originally lived with an elderly man who passed in June 2021. Same month my aunt then adopted her. However, she later had to move to a senior living facility that didn't allow pets, so I took her in as a foster Feb 2022. Already, she'd been in three/four homes, and I couldn't see her going back to a shelter. After several scenarios on my 5 year old cat and dog, who was our original cat, I've decided after 2 years of trying, Sugar needs to find a better home for her needs. She is getting her yearly rabies vaccine this afternoon, so she will have a recent vet appt/exam done.

Story
I can be shy at times but usually I like to meet the people who come in to visit, I can get a little possessive of them and swat away any of the other cats so I can have all the attention. Otherwise I will lay around and get pet for a while then go and laydown in the sun. I am not an active boy but I make up for it in cuddles and lap time, when I'm excited to see someone I give pretty gentle love bites. I would love a nice quiet home with a human that would tend to my every need, your reward will be love bites and headbutts. If you think that sounds like fun you should put in an application today!This 4 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I was pretty scared when I got to Safe Haven, but its nice here. I have a room to play in and socialize with humans and other cats, with lots of people to brush my beautiful hair. I am a little older and don't enjoy the ruff play the younger cats like, but will come out to get attention and treats. I will even tolerate some gentle brushing, but I can get a little moody and tell you with a tender warning swat that I'm done and would prefer to do something else, like sitting together or having you pet my head while I sleep in my condo. I may be older, but my 12 pound body can still climb the cat trees and I dream of a home with lots of windows to lay in and a lap to nap on when I need the attention of my human. Please submit an application if I sound like your kind of older gentleman.This 11 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I came to Safe Haven with my sister and brother, we were rescued by a nice woman that wanted to give us our best chance. Now we're inside and getting used to being waited on hand and foot. I love meeting all the people who visit, I used to be scared of people but they give treats and provide playtime with those wand toys so now I can't get enough of people! I will do anything to get attention, its pretty great when people come to see me. I don't mind the company of other cats, I share a room with my siblings and two other cats. The other cats don't really care for my kitten energy and will tell me off, but that doesn't get me down. I will just try to play with someone else. If you think you'd like a guy like me in your life, please submit an application today.This 6 month old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I came to Safe Haven with my sister and brother, we were pretty nervous being here but have come around to being around people and the noises of the shelter. I might hide whenever someone comes in to visit, but have come around to understand people are pretty great. I'm looking for a home that will give me time to decompress and adjust to life with humans, I was an outdoor girl before coming to the shelter and still see people as something that can be scary at first, but given my age I will most likely grow out of this and be a great cat.This 6 month old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.
