My story

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

Hello! My name is Akela!  My estimated birthday is 3/25/2023.  

I was born outside a in a large cat colony. I was just a baby, so I was brought into the rescue with two of my brothers, one has been adopted. I am a little timid. It takes me a long time to warm up, so I've been overlooked. I get more confident every day. I love other cats. I play great with them and love to be groomed by them. I am also fostered with a dog. I tend to hiss at him and go about my business. 

Loud noises tend to scare me so I would do better in a quieter home.

I would love to live forever with my brother Baloo but I wouldn't have to. As long as there is another cat in the home, I would settle more comfortably.

Harlow's Haven Cat Rescue is a non-profit organization the focus on saving the lives of at risk and homeless cats in our community. We provide them with a safe environment in foster homes where they can live cage free and thrive until adoption day.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We currently utilize private foster homes who are located in Adams and York county, as well as Carroll County Maryland. To meet one of our adoptable cats, you must have an approved adoption application. We do not currently have a facility but with generous donors and a great team of volunteers, we hope to have a space in the near future.

More about this rescue

Growing up surrounded by nurses has instilled compassion and a strong sense of service within Chloe. She volunteered at fundraising events for cancer patients for many years, becoming more involved as she got older. As a result of her parents fostering dogs, she became very invested in the idea of finding loving homes for homeless pets. This became even more important to her when her cat, Harlow, came into her life as a stray. With the help of her family, and a great board of directors, her concept for a cat rescue came to life!

We rescue at-risk and homeless cats to provide them with a safe and nurturing environment where they can live until adoption day.
