My story

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

Meet Tiger and Monica, two sweet bonded “sisters.” When she was a kitten in 2020, Monica was adopted to be friends with Tiger, and they did indeed become BFFs. Sadly, they had to come back to Happy Cats because of a family illness, through no fault of their own.

Monica is the big beautiful tuxedo with what must be the world’s longest and most luxurious whiskers! Her 8 YO friend Tiger is the wise tabby lady of the two, who helps keep them both grounded and less stressed. They can often be found snuggled and grooming together.

Tiger will definitely like being your new Kitty Admin, following you around to trade purrs for pets.

Monica is a little more anxious, but once she knows she’s safe among friends–even new ones!–she’s chatty and as ready as Tiger to meet you at the door.

We expect both will be loving and loyal companions who are happy to snuggle. Tiger loves laptime already with her new friends. Monica is content to be the Sidecar Kitty who snuggles right next to you for now. Just make sure to let Monica tell you when she’s finished with petting, as she can get a little more stimulated than Tiger does.

They’re both happy to have daily playtime, so they can chase and get out their energy. Just about any kitty wand will do, anything that gets them leaping and moving!

They were friends with a small dog who Monica used to play with, so will likely be friends with another smallish cat-savvy dog with a gentle introduction. Monica has only known Tiger so may do best in a home without other cats and will probably do best in a home without small children unless they are especially in tune with cat body language.

These two lovely ladies can be adopted together for $120 which includes their spays, vaccinations, microchips, food and litter starter kits, and a free well-kitty checkup each to help you get started.

More about this shelter

Welcome to Happy Cats Haven! We are a non-profit rescue and adoption center for homeless cats and kittens in the Pikes Peak Region of Colorado Springs. We are a Feline Friendly Shelter and guarantee safe haven for all cats we take in.

No healthy or treatable cat is euthanized, and our Live Release Rate is 98%, which means we meet the definition of a No-Kill Organization and exceed that of Socially Conscious Sheltering.

We believe that cats are valuable, lovable and trainable, not disposable. Feline Friendly means we treat our cats as individuals–with respect, compassion and positive reinforcement–to make their stay as stress-free as possible until they are adopted.

We give both our cats and our adopters the gift of time, so everyone can relax and show their true personalities. Each adoption matches our deep understanding of our cats with their new families, handcrafted for a feline lifetime.

Our ongoing support with classes and online advice continues long past adoption. We have found forever families for over 4,500 cats and kittens since 2011!
