My story

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

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

Georgia was found as a very pregnant stray in August 2023. A Safe Haven volunteer offered to take Georgia in as a foster so she could safely have her kittens in a loving home. Georgia was able to get all settled in at her foster home before having three healthy kittens. Her kittens have all been adopted, so now it is Georgia's turn to find her own special forever home.

Georgia made it pretty clear from the beginning that she had no interest in making friends with any of the other cats or dogs in her foster home, so Georgia and the kittens (once they were born) resided in a private bedroom/bathroom to keep the new little family safe and happy. Her foster does think that Georgia would prefer to be an only pet in her forever home. She also seems to be a bit nervous with unfamiliar or really loud sounds/activity. Because of this Georgia wasn’t a huge fan of the kids in her foster home, and her foster mom feels that she would appreciate a home with no small children.

While we don’t know anything about Georgia’s life before becoming a Safe Haven kitty, we know that the Good Samaritan who found her helped change her life by reaching out for help in finding resources for a pregnant stray cat. With the help of caring humans, Georgia was able to get off the streets, move indoors, have and raise her kittens, and can now enjoy a quiet and calm life where she is always taken care of in her future forever home!

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.
