My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Hermione was adopted as a kitten in '21 and had a happy home until her owner had health problems and needed to return her. 

She has grown into a gorgeous cat, that is affectionate and seeks attention from almost every person that enters her room. If she doesn't come running up for attention, she may be having a day where she sometimes prefers to be quiet and looks like she is deep in thought - we just think she is dreaming of her forever home! These are the moments that we have found it's better to let her come to you, because she doesn't usually love to be pet when she is trying to nap.

Most volunteers get to know the fun, loving side of Hermione - the one that shows she is quite the spunky, sweet girl!  Hermione definitely does have boundaries though, such as not enjoying her hindquarters being touched, and can also be a handful at vet appointments. Since she can be a bit unpredictable to over-handling or to someone not paying attention to her body language, we feel she would prefer a quieter home without young kids. However a family with a school aged kiddo that is fairly cat savvy would enjoy her playful side, and like most cats she will lose it over a wand toy! Hermione is moderately active, but also enjoys lots of naps throughout the day. She has experience living with a small dog, but would likely prefer to remain the only cat. 

We just know the perfect family is out there for Hermione - and the last bit of great news is that her adoption fee has been sponsored, so all she needs now is someone to give her that chance to be the great cat that her previous owner knows her to be!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

It is the policy of Safe Haven of Iowa County that all animals adopted from our facility will be spayed or neutered upon adoption, or the adopter will sign a spay/neuter agreement and follow up with veterinary records once the operation has been complete for puppies and kittens. We firmly believe that controlling the animal population is the only way to reduce the population of animals in rescue facilities such as ours and those shelters that do destroy animals for no reason other than overpopulation.

It is our policy that adoptions are conducted a minimum of 24 hours after your initial visit with the animal and submission of the adoption application. This allows us time to call your references, perform home inspection as well as giving you the opportunity to sleep on your decision and make sure it is what you really want.

Compare the adoption fees below with the routine animal health care and spay / neuter costs you would have to pay. Without the generous help of the local veterinarians we would never be able to include such services at this fee.

We have the right to refuse ANY adoption for ANY reason.


Dogs & Puppies: Adoption fees include spaying or neutering (if under 4 months a voucher is provided for surgery at one of our participating veterinarians), heartworm test, distemper, rabies, worming, ear cleaning, flea control if needed.

Fee: $200.00


Cats & Kittens: Adoption fees include spaying or neutering (if under 4 months a voucher is provided for surgery at one of our participating veterinarians), FeLv and FIV testing, distemper, rabies and worming, ear cleaning, and flea control if needed.

Fee: $50.00


All puppies and kittens adopted without spay/neuter completed will have a contract stating the animals will be altered by the time it is 6 months old. Follow up calls will be made to confirm completion of surgery.

More about this rescue

Our Mission
Safe Haven of Iowa County is a rescue organization whose mission is to rescue, protect, spay/neuter and find good homes for stray animals in Iowa County, Iowa. We strive to offer the best in traditional veterinary care with relationships built with local veternarians and, whenever possible, holistic health care for sick and injured animals in our care.
While sheltering homeless pets is vitally important, Safe Haven of Iowa County also understands that pet shelters are not a solution to the nations overpopulation problem. It is essential that we:

-Teach respect for living things

-Reinforce the bond between humans and animals

-advocate for and help provide assistance to large scale spay and nuetering programs

-Teach and model responsible pet ownership

These are all things that will help us in our effort to stop the needless killing of cats and dogs in our shelters and pounds.

We ask that our community understand that while we pamper and care for our pets they are all still missing the most important thing in their life...a loving home and family of thier own.
