Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Erik the Red is a 4-year-old gentle giant looking for his forever home!
This fluffy guy is a sweet boy who often flops onto his back to invite pets! He absolutely loves affectionate pets and will instantly purr in response. He has spent his time at his foster house learning the joys of being an indoor cat - warmth, cozy couches, and family!
His favorite activities are naps on the couch, hunting his toys (springs, mice, and string, oh my!), and getting brushed (necessary to keep his lustrous coat looking its best).
Erik is confident and friendly to other cats, and he likes to hang out with humans as well. He loves food and will be happy to be your new cooking buddy!
This handsome fellow is a moderate-energy cat. He loves to play and gets the zoomies, but then he settles in for a well-earned nap!
Erik was previously a stray until a kind finder discovered him near the Vikings Stadium and realized he had great potential as an indoor cat! He is currently being fostered in a house with two adult humans and two resident cats.
He gets along very well with the resident cats, enjoying chase-play in particular! Erik is currently fed separately from the resident cats to ensure this food-motivated boy only eats his share! He is also on a special prescription diet due to some food sensitivities; his forever humans should continue providing him with this to ensure he stays happy and healthy.
Due to his previous life on the streets, Erik can be frightened by new people and loud noises at first, so he will need his own quiet space and some patience while he settles into a new environment. Once he feels safe and comfortable, Erik will enjoy affection and daily play.
This boy has a lot of love to bring to his new home!
There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown. All ages and breeds are best estimates.
Adoption fees include a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%.
All cats have received comprehensive veterinary care and tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV unless otherwise stated. Cats are up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations and have been spayed/neutered, treated for fleas and/or ear mites, de-wormed, and microchipped. Please note there may be additional follow up visits and boosters that are not covered by Pet Haven after adoption.

Pet Haven is a foster-based rescue. Our animals live with foster families until they are placed in permanent homes and their foster families get to know the dogs and cats learning important information about the animals. For example, the foster family will know if the dog or cat is good with other animals or children, and will have a good idea of what kind of training, attention, and special needs the pet may require. This makes our foster families great resources for potential adopters!

Our Mission
Pet Haven improves the lives of pets and the people who love them by rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs and cats; reducing pet overpopulation by supporting spay and neuter efforts, and providing resources to people that help strengthen the human-animal bond.
Our Vision
A Minnesota where all pets live in safe, loving homes.
Our Values
Excellence in service and care; community; integrity; innovation; perseverance; compassion; a rewarding place to volunteer
How We Help
Spay/Neuter Initiative Program: Providing support to end pet overpopulation in Minnesota
Owner Surrender: Providing a safe haven for pet owners
Foster: Committed to finding forever homes for cats and dogs
Phoenix Fund for Special Needs: Providing veterinary care for animals in need of healing
What We Do
We help dogs and cats find homes with loving families through foster-based care. Every dog and cat lives with a foster family until they find their forever families. We provide all of their basic needs including proper food, veterinary care, behavior training, and supplies.
Through in-home fostering, we learn about each animal’s temperament, personality, likes/dislikes, and any medical needs. With this first-hand information, we can then find the right family for each dog and cat.
Our volunteers also educate the public on responsible companion animal care and represent respect for animals at all times. Whether we’re working with prospective new families, meeting people at public events, or socializing with friends and family, we encourage others to view and treat their pets as members of the family. We are their guardians, and they depend on us for companionship and care.
We spay/neuter prior to adoption.
We microchip all our Pet Haven Pets and remain as a secondary contact.
We make sure all pets are up to date on required vaccinations
We test for Heartworm and Lymes in all our dogs and are transparent in the results and treament
We test for FeLV/FIV and are transparent in the results. We believe that cats who test positive still deserve a chance at a quality home.
We do not euthanize animals unless they have untreatable health or behavioral conditions that deny them an acceptable quality of life or makes them a serious threat to people, other animals, or themselves.
How We Operate
We rely on adoption fees, tax-deductible donations, grants, and special events to keep our rescue operating. Our staff, Board of Directors, and volunteers have provided the passion and commitment to keep Pet Haven a safe haven for animals for almost 70 years.
We are committed to preventing pet homelessness through the SNIP Grant. Since 2005, we have granted more than $240,000 to organizations in Minnesota to support spay/neuter initiatives.
