Miss Kitty lived with an older man and her sibling brother for 18 years where they were born so many years ago. The man could no longer care for himself, or his home, or his beloved cats who were his constant companions. His home was in deplorable condition as over time he lost the ability to maintain it. It was hidden under trees on a road that no one ever traveled.

His family stepped in and moved him into assisted living. This life, although shabby, was the life he and his 2 cats shared for nearly 20 years. Just imagine, how important one was to the other. And now, the family was broken.

Safe Haven is known for taking cats that many other organizations pass on. Whenever possible, we help the people and cats of Maine who are desperate for loving rescue.

The condition of the brother kitty, was beyond heartbreaking. He was immobile deaf and blind. He could not stand or walk. He urinated on himself and the team kept changing his p*e pads to keep him clean and give him the dignity he needed. He was immediately taken to the vet and we hoped to keep him in our care but the next day, he had to be euthanized with our team taking turns holding him until his appointment time. It broke the teams hearts.

The female sister, Miss Kitty, was lost without him. They were inseparable and clung to one another when they arrived. Now she had nothing. Miss Kitty was also deaf and had limited vision and now she had the challenge of having lost her family and her home.

Miss Kitty is in much better health than her poor sibling. And even though she is deaf and has partial sight, she navigates well! Like many senior cats of her advanced age, she has kidney disease, but her levels are stage II which is manageable with prescription kidney dry food which she happily eats. She doesn't like the canned kidney food but loves her Fancy Feast Gravy Lovers meals.

Miss Kitty is a grateful kitty and very sweet and gentle. She adores
attention, and purrs happily when she is petted. She enjoys her squeezable treats and shows affection to the volunteers.

She is mellow at her age, and isn't active due to her arthritic hind legs. She prefers a carpeted surface where she feels more solid footed.

She'd love to have a quiet home with a gentle person who will give her all the love she's missing to provide her with a happy life.

This darling girl needs someone who knows how to pamper and cherish, because she's so deserving of it. Due to her age, there is no adoption fee

To meet this darling girl, please call 978-618-8022 or fill out application form www.safehavenhumanesociety.org

Tulip is in surgery for her needed dental surgery to relieve her of the pain and infection stomatitis was causing her. We are all praying for the very best outcome and ask you all to send your prayers and thoughts her way.
She has come far since she was trapped a couple months ago on a farm and was to be returned as a barn cat. But the vet that spayed her advised the farmer that her mouth was such a mess that she would no longer be a good mouser and she could be euthanized if he wanted. You know of course we stepped in and she became a SH cat. She was very ill. She was anemic and had a very invasive case of lungworm and her mouth was ravaged with infection from Stomatitis. Her teeth were rotten and she was in discomfort.

We rallied and created our CCC Fund to help Tulip (Critical Cat Care fund) where the funds are used on cats that would otherwise die without our intervention. A few wonderful donors gave the base money with added up to $18,500 for a matching gift fundraiser. Since then we have been receiving donations on either Paypal or visa/debit on our website www.safehavenhumanesociety.org or in the mail: Safe Haven, PO Box 91, Wells, ME 04090. Every dollar sent to us will be matched up to $18,500. If you wish to help us please act soon. Tulip has had a great deal of medical needs and landed in emergency due to the lung-worms causing her labored breathing. Due to her condition, more diagnostics were needed to be sure she would withstand anesthesia for this surgery which she is having right now!
Her bills will be paid thru this life saving CCC fund. Please encourage your friends to share this post so we can raise as much money as possible for these emergency kitties! Thanks.

Yes, there are many wonderful people out there, Safe Haven is blessed to have generous supporters who find special ways to gift us to help our cause.

We're thrilled to share that a special donor has matched the profit Safe Haven took in for our Kitten Shower on May 17th. We brought in $1,696 and so now, that total is $3,392.

We're designating these funds to our Trap and Rescue team for gas cards, trapping supplies, and kitten and cat food needed by our foster homes that are taking such wonderful care of the cats and kittens that are trapped.

We are so fortunate. Thank you all for your generosity and helping us save precious lives.

Hello, I have no name. I have no food. I have no home or water. I have little ones that depend on me. If I leave to hunt for food, I risk my babies getting into harms way.
I've never been to a vet. I've never been touched by a human. There is no future for me or my babies here. We're living under a trailer in an unsafe location. My kittens are beginning to wander and can easily get into harms way.

Safe Haven is looking for kind, cat loving, patient, responsible foster homes so kitties like me and my babies don't get left behind.
At least I've been found, and now they make sure I have food and water. But before my kittens and I can leave this place, there has to be a place for us to go to.

It has to be a place that won't make me frightened. I'll need a quiet room of my own to relax and focus on being a mother cat to my precious kittens.

The person who takes us in, must be patient with me because I have no idea what is going to happen to me or my kittens and I don't know the sounds or movements a humane makes .I'll be very fearful and defensive of my kittens at first, but I"m only reacting to mother nature who guides me.

Safe Haven will pay for all my needs while a person cares for me. What they need desperately to help kitties like me and their kittens is a safe place for us to stay.

If you know of anyone who will give us space we can get out of from under this trailer. It's not a safe place for my babies.
Thank you.
Mother kitty
