Story
Say hello to Puck. A young cat who embodies the kind of perfection that quietly transforms a space into something extraordinary. Think of the first sip of a perfect cup of coffee … warm, comforting, and awakening all at once. The soft orange sherbet glow of a sunset in August, casting everything in mesmerizing light. Or the satisfying sensation of a ripe blackberry stain on your finger after an impromptu jump out of the car, roadside picking moment. Unexpected, a little messy, yet unmistakably sweet. Puck's personality is a collection of these moments—vivid, memorable, and entirely without pretense.From the moment he enters, it’s clear this dear kit isn’t content to observe from the sidelines. He’s eager—intensely curious about everything around him, an explorer with a heart full of wonder.He adores people with an exquisite, open-hearted enthusiasm. Whether greeting visitors at the door, curling up nearby after a day of exploration, or sharing a quiet moment nestled beside you, he has a way of making companionship feel effortless. Every part of Puck's personality shows he’s eager to belong and be the best friend cat who brings a vibrant, steady force into a life that adores him. If you’re looking for a cat with a big heart and big love ... Puck would like to have a word with you.Haiku for PuckGray fur and bright eyes,Curious leaps and warm purrs,A friend for all days.

Story
Say hello to Ember … a breathtaking slipstream of a kitten. She is gleam and glide. The kind of beauty that sneaks up on you and makes her mark.She’s gregarious in an effortless way and fluent in friendship. Walk into the room, and she’s already at your ankles, quickly closing any space that was between you.Ember moves with purpose. Usually the playful kind. She studies the feather toy with the seriousness of a physicist, calculating the exact trajectory needed to intercept its flutter. And when she springs, she is one part grace and one part wild joy, but all Ember.She’s a dedicated birdwatcher, too. The window is her cinema, the sparrows her morning programming, with the Douglas squirrel that sometimes comes into view, the cherry on top of her naturalist moments. Above all, this dear one thrives on company and real connection. And because her best life will include living with another young, social cat to share secrets, mischief, and mid-afternoon wrestling matches, she needs to be adopted as a pair with one of her littermates. However, we’ll consider a single adoption if there’s another gregarious feline waiting at home to welcome her into the fold.Haiku for EmberPerfect little oneeyes charting her next bright leapwarmth in motion shines.NOTE: We require indoor-only care for our adoptions.

Say hello to Katie… luminous and oh-so-full of love. Katie came to Haven after losing the only home she had ever known. When she arrived, this dear one weighed close to twenty pounds, carrying far more than her small frame was meant to hold. Since then, our amazing volunteer team has guided her through a gentle weight-loss plan rooted in kindness to her body.She is making slow but steady progress and is now ready for her next step—a new home committed to supporting her as she continues her journey. And oh, does Katie know a thing or two about commitment.She is devotion in motion.A cat who greets you with deliberate, slow blinks.Her paw reaches for your hand, closing the space between.Biscuit-making is an event. Deep, focused, magical.Above all, Katie loves with her whole being.Always. And she’s looking for a new home that has the same to offer.A Haiku for KatieSlow blinks, steady paws,warmth gathers where she settlescare becomes a bond.NOTE: We require indoor-only care for our cat adoptions.The first step in our process is to fill out our application at www.havenrescue.org/catapplication.

Story
THE FIRST STEP IN OUR ADOPTION PROCESS IS TO FILL OUT OUR APPLICATION AT WWW.HAVENRESCUE.ORG/CATAPPLICATIONSay hello to Little Boy … A dreamboat adult tabby with a name that forgot to check in with reality because nothing about this peach of a cat is little. Not his size.Not in his love. Definitely not the force of his headbutts. This big, beautifully striped boy is a full-hearted, full-contact fan of humans.If it’s not naptime, he’s your official welcoming committee … first at the door, tail up like a flag, eager to make first contact. He arrives with a full-body headbonk greeting.And then there’s the lap situation.Little Boy is not a “perch on the edge” kind of guy. He is a full-on, sprawling, committed lap lounger. He moves in like he’s docking a ship … adjusts, plonks and then becomes a large, purring, striped paperweight you will happily rearrange your afternoon around.He’s lived with other cats and does just fine with that, but if you ask him, being the only cat sounds pretty dreamy, or maybe being the second in a home with another chill and independent cat who is fine with a companion cat rather than a playmate. He’s also lived with dogs, and that is A-OK too, provided they understand he is not a chase or chew toy.Little Boy is one of those cats with an almost indescribable, gentle, generous quality about him. He’s the cat who fills the room in the best way. A warm weight on your legs, a thump of greeting when you enter, a striped shadow who keeps choosing you to love, over and over and over. Haiku for Little BoyTabby tide rolls in,doorway, lap, and heart all claimed small name, giant love.NOTE: We require indoor-only care for our adoptions, though catios are fantastic!

Say hello to Banjo … a delicious year-old cat who is pure charm. A soul who rounds out the edges of the day and always makes it better.Banjo is a big letter “E.” Engaging. Easy. Endearing. He is one of the first to make friends with new cats that come into the shelter, and loves a big cuddle puddle cat pile or a tandem run on our giant cat wheel. Banjo is also the first to greet people when they come in the door, and he follows with a dance of leg-rubbing, play invitations, and slow-blinking love gazes. This special boy radiates goodness and an uncomplicated joy that curls itself in your lap and purr hums. He’s loyal without being clingy, curious without chaos, and generous with love in all directions.Banjo is looking for a home where people are home more than not, and because he is a social butterfly, he needs to be adopted with his sibling, Puck, or into a home with another young, gregarious cat to become his new best friend. A Haiku for Banjo Quiet room, bright sparkCheer hums in gentle lightWarmth lingers with him.NOTE: We require indoor-only care for our cat adoptions.The first step in our process is to fill out our application at www.havenrescue.org/catapplication.

This teen boy is pure chill charisma. Steady gaze, soft steps, and a quiet calm that says, You’re okay. I’m okay. We’re all good.Mojo is zen with spark.Moving from being stretched out on the windowsill like a shadow statue, then turning into a playful panther for a few well-timed pounces and graceful zooms. He adores toys, wand games, and chase with his cat buddies, but he never tips the room into chaos.He’s also a natural ambassador.Mojo loves people and reads the room beautifully. Curious and friendly with new humans and wonderfully at ease with other cats. He’s the guy who can hang out next to a shy cat and make the space feel safe just by existing in it.Connection is his favorite hobby.He pads over to where you are, settles nearby or leans and lets his purr roll out low and even. Desk companion, couch buddy, quiet shadow following you from room to room ... he’s there, in the best possible way.Mojo is ready for a forever home that wants a big-hearted young cat who brings peace, play, and effortless charm to every day.Haiku for MojoMidnight on the move,quiet paws and steady eyes,the whole room exhales.NOTE: Because Mojo is young we are looking to place him in a home with another gregarious cat.
