About Our Rescue Group
I'm a retired Agricultural Engineer. I operated the rescue house for Safe Haven for Animals for three years 24/7 (40-80 cats & kittens, all wet food and medicines). There were animals that Safe Haven was not able to rescue that I began taking, so finally have chosen to focus on those in my own home and assist in placement of older cats in Safe Haven for Animals rescue house.
I still do some workshop facilitation and small consulting jobs. I do cat rescue because I love animals, have an incredible mentor (apprecticed to vet before starting to rescue cats) and because there is huge need, especially in our current economy here in Arizona. Come Meet our Pets

Our Adoption Process
Simple contract. Fee is donation, usually between $30 and $70 depending on animal.
We only adopt to indoor-only situations. We seek homes where they don't declaw, but may be placing a declawed cat and, occasionally, might declaw to achieve a good home. We work with a veterinarian to place animals turned in to their clinic that are considered adoptable. We help in their recovery as needed first. We work to find homes for the older, passed over or less desirable cats in the rescue house operated by Safe Haven for Animals, Inc. Usually, the cats/kittens are in my home or the Safe Haven rescue house. A few are on the local animal rescue network or in other private homes. Cats we adopt from my home or the Safe Haven house have been tested for FeLV/FIV, inoculated against upper respiratory diseases and have been spayed or neutered. We do not adopt out unaltered animals. I may take the cat/kitten to the potential adopter's home for evaluation, or meet them at Safe Haven's rescue house, as appropriate for the animal. We will take back any animal within 30 days if the placement does not appear to be satisfactory and refund the donation.. Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a cat or kitten versus getting cats for sale or kittens for sale from a cat breeder? When someone is breeding kittens, they are creating new cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of cat or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a cat for sale from a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a cat or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group. |
