Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Scout is a 4.5-year-old, handsome tuxedo looking for his forever home!
Scout is a total social butterfly who thrives on being part of the action. He loves spending time with his foster parents and charming their human friends. When he’s not soaking up attention, you can find him perched by a window keeping tabs on the neighborhood or attempting to scale anything that looks even remotely climbable (whether it actually is or not!). He’s a big fan of wand toys, and thanks to his lanky, gangly build, he needs plenty of space to leap, pounce, and show off his impressive moves. While he’s a brave little explorer at heart, Scout is happiest when he can curl up beside his favorite person for cuddles and affection.
Scout is a medium-energy guy - past his wild kitten days but still playful and full of personality. He’s quite the chatterbox and isn’t shy about sharing his thoughts in the cutest little meow. If you step into another room and Scout decides it’s time to hang out, he’ll absolutely let you know!
In his current foster home, Scout lives with two humans, two resident cats, and three small dogs in a multi-level single-family home. He needed a little time and patience to warm up to the resident cats, but now they coexist happily and roam the house together. He tolerates the oldest, calmest dog but finds the other two a bit too energetic for his taste. With respectful, mellow pups, he would likely do just fine.
Scout would thrive in a variety of home environments. With slow, thoughtful introductions, he could live comfortably with other calm, independent cats and/or dogs. Although he hasn’t met children in his foster home, he absolutely adores people and would likely be delighted to have a small human friend to dote on.
Scout is FIV+, but it doesn’t slow him down one bit! Cats with FIV commonly live long, normal, healthy lives. Because FIV is spread primarily through deep bite wounds, FIV+ cats can safely live with FIV- cats in stable, well-managed homes. His foster family has seen firsthand that with patience and proper introductions, Scout can build positive feline friendships.
Scout came into foster care with his former housemate, Tank, and their relationship wasn’t the healthiest. Tank is now thriving as a solo cat, and Scout has blossomed with the help of his patient feline roommates. Due to his history and FIV+ status, slow, careful introductions to any resident cats will be essential. Plan for 2–4 weeks of gradual integration to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
If you’re looking for a charming, affectionate, talkative companion with movie-star good looks and a heart full of love, Scout might just be your perfect match!

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.
