Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary stands as a true Safe Haven For Cats, passionately dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing loving forever homes for felines with special needs and disabilities. More than just a shelter, this organization operates with the core belief that every cat, regardless of its challenges, deserves the chance at a fulfilling life. They champion the idea that a special need or disability should never be a barrier to love and care.
Operating as a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit, Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary is a no-kill, cage-free environment. This unique approach ensures a stress-free and comfortable atmosphere for cats recovering from abuse, neglect, and hoarding situations. They open their doors and hearts to cats diagnosed with FIV+ and FELV+, those facing blindness or paralysis, cats with missing limbs, and those with various physical and psychological disabilities. Recognizing vulnerability in all forms, they also welcome neonatal kittens and senior cats, providing specialized care tailored to each individual’s needs. Euthanasia is only considered as a last resort, solely when a cat is experiencing irreversible suffering and all other options have been exhausted, upholding their commitment to life and compassionate care.
Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary’s impact is substantial, rescuing hundreds of animals annually. Their life-saving work is fueled entirely by the generosity of donations. Supported by compassionate donors and sponsors, they are committed to continuing their vital mission for years to come, ensuring that “no pet is left behind.”
The sanctuary warmly welcomes visitors during opening hours, fostering community engagement and transparency. It provides a welcoming space with free WIFI, comfortable seating, and a used bookstore, Haven Books, where affordable purchases directly support their mission. Engaging events like yoga with kitties are regularly hosted, creating unique opportunities for interaction and fundraising. Furthermore, their proud partnership with The Pawffee Shop Cat Cafe in Appleton, WI, has facilitated over 200 cat adoptions since 2019, extending their reach and impact within the community.
