Katy's Kritters Safe Haven

Shaggy is also officially adopted. His new owners are an older lady and her adult son likely in his 40's. They are some incredibly fun people. I am very excited that Shaggy finally has a family of his own where he's the only kitty to be spoiled rotten. You deserve all of it buddy!

Waffles is officially out on a foster to adopt agreement. His soon to be owner will complete adoption in July, 2026. Early congrats buddy. You most definitely deserve the world and some final stability baby!

His soon to be official mom is so excited and really invested in Waffles having the best life. She has a very calm and gentle demanor and lives alone so her house is on the quieter side which will greatly help him to become his best self and thrive.

Yoshi is officially available for adoption but we need your help to email and send to as many local veterinary clinics as possible. We hope to find Yoshi placement at a vet clinic as a vet clinic ambassador.

Jasper has been found safe and sound. He is back indoors with his beloved family, right where he should be.

Urgent-All hands on deck. We need as many eyes as we can get on this!

‎This Kitty is missing and we need your help to share the post, raise awareness and help get him back home to his frantic family. The owner is a dear sweet friend of mine, a local animal advocate and a local animal rescuer and TNR Trapper. She has done so much for her community and now she needs your help.
‎
‎The Kitty's name is Jasper. He got outside by complete accident and normally is a 100 percent indoor kitty. He left from his home after a door didn't latch properly, his home is located in the Rosemount Woods Mobile Home Park located in Rosemount MN. He went missing on June 3rd 2026. He is neutered, not microchipped, and front declawed. Possible sighting at nearby park, called Central Park in Rosemount. He is well loved and dearly missed by his family. We are more concerned due to him being front declawed, that being outside for long periods of time could leave him defenseless. This is my friends beloved resident baby. She is very upset and frantically doing all the normal things to find him. She has only received 1 possible sighting but it was blurry and couldn't be confirmed it was him.
‎
‎If you have him, she would very much like to be reunited with her beloved furr ball. We are also looking for sightings or leads to track where he went. Neither of us have seen him.
‎
‎If you think you see him. Please stay still, get your phone out and snap 3 to 5 pics as clearly as you can.. Note the time and cross streets of the sighting. Please do not chase as we do not want him running scared, it will be better for him to be aware of his surroundings. You can try offering cat food or leaving water outside. If you feel comfortable and have a way to safely contain him, please do so but only if he approaches you. He is generally friendly but might be scared being outside. Again we do not want to scare or chase him. Sometimes can be helpful to lure into a park car but carefully leave the air on or stay with him until he is picked up.. Than, please email us asap any pics or info you may have. Ty kindly for your help in bringing Jasper back home to his family who loves him very much. If you have a lead or found him, please email [email protected] and text this number at (651) 318-9335. Ty so much.

Waffles is available for meet and greets this weekend as well as throughout next week in Eagan.

‎Meet Waffles (Available for adoption)– Your Future Best Friend 🧇🐾
‎Location: Twin Cities Metro,
‎
‎Waffles is the definition of a people-loving companion. This sweet, social boy absolutely thrives on human interaction and is happiest when he’s right by your side. Whether you’re relaxing on the couch or moving around the house, Waffles will be your loyal little shadow, ready to cuddle, play, or simply keep you company.
‎
‎He’s affectionate, playful, and full of personality—a perfect mix of snuggle buddy, entertainer, and explorer. His favorite “toy” is you, and he loves interactive playtime just as much as curling up in a cozy blanket for a nap. Waffles has a hilarious habit of falling asleep in the most interesting positions, twisted up like a 🥨 pretzel. He is quite the ham and the acrobat.
‎
‎Waffles would do best in a home with adults or respectful children over the age of 8. Loud environments, chaotic energy, or grabby hands can overwhelm him, so he’s looking for a calmer home where he can truly relax and be himself. Waffles is being re-homed due to his owner becoming abruptly homeless.
‎
‎While Waffles adores people, he prefers to be the only feline in the home—he’s a one-cat kind of guy who wants all your love to himself. That said, he has shown positive interest in calm, respectful dogs and has previously had successful visits with canine companions who understand kitty boundaries. He does seem to readily accept dogs of all sizes that are kind to him.
‎
‎The basics about Waffles:
‎
‎Neutered (Male) & microchipped
‎
‎Young-Approx. 1 year old.
‎
‎Up to date on all vaccines (including rabies & feline combo series)
‎
‎Negative for feline leukemia, FIV, and heartworm per Triple Snap Test.
‎
‎Received exam, flea/tick treatment, and deworming
‎
‎Healthy with no known chronic conditions
‎
‎Vet Records are included with adoption.
‎
‎He has excellent litterbox habits and currently uses standard clay clumping litter. Waffles is an easy keeper—he enjoys free-fed dry kibble, fresh water at all times, and a daily serving of wet food (he’s not picky and loves it all!).
‎
‎He’s also a bit of a simple guy—skip the fancy scratching posts, because cardboard scratchers are his favorite!
‎
‎Waffles loves to explore, burrow into blankets, and be wherever his humans are. If you’re looking for a loyal companion, a cuddle expert, and a best friend who will adore you endlessly, Waffles is your guy.
‎
‎Ready to meet your new loyal B.F.F. for life? Waffles can’t wait to meet you. 🐾 Please email Katy at [email protected] or text 651-381-8207 to inquire more about Waffles or how his adoption process will work. Waffles can't wait to find his forever human or humans and finally settle down in a family of his own.
