SafeHaven is a wonderful place to adopt a cat, offering a less overwhelming experience than county shelters with its cat-focused environment. During the Clear the Shelter event, I adopted a 13-week-old kitten named Merlo, now lovingly called Sunshine Kitty Kitty 😊. He has quickly become a cherished addition to our home. Although initially scared and shy, Sunshine is gradually warming up, becoming more active and affectionate each day. The staff at SafeHaven were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, even lending me a carrier and providing cat food and toys on the day of adoption. Another Clear the Shelter event is coming up on September 6th.
Adopted our baby on our first visit to Safe Haven 4 Cats after running around the town and visited other adoption centers over 6 times. We had to wait for 45min before entering, and the wait was so worth it. They do it so cats don’t get overwhelmed by the crowds and they make sure you can take your time and have opportunities to play with the cats. Vicky is extremely helpful and sweet, she introduced every single adoptable cat there and you can just tell that she loves every single of them. She knows their personalities, she knows how long they have been there, and she answers every question you have about each cat. They set up play rooms where you can meet the cat, you get sanitized before entering the room. They taught all kittens so well, you just know that they are loved, and they are affectionate towards humans. After visiting almost all shelters around Raleigh area, I would say I had the best experience here. Not to mention you can bring your baby home right after deciding to adopt them, the whole process is smooth and fast. Vicky stayed overtime for us since we were the last visitors, and we really appreciate her patience and everything this shelter has done to help those angels🐈🐈🐈
My daughter adopted two cats from this awesome place. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and love cats 🐈 😻. There is a lot of paperwork to fill out but rightfully so when you are about to adopt a little fur baby! However, once you finish the paperwork and are approved your paperwork is good for 6 months, I believe. If you are looking to adopt a fur baby Safe Haven for Cats is the place. The pictures are of 2-year-old Tea on the right and 6-month Ren on the left.
I had a great experience! Last weekend I was super bummed out because every where I visited kept making me jump through hoops to even POSSIBLY adopt a fur baby. One place even told me the process takes weeks because we had to set up a meet and greet and they needed to call all my references to verify everything first and so the cat I wanted wouldn’t even be available. I really wanted to adopt a cat that may otherwise not get a home instead of buying a cat so I finally ended up here. Staff was super accommodating and let me see the cats that very day. They knew all of the cats individually and were able to tell me their individual stories and talk to me about their personalities. You could tell the cats were loved and are also socialized often because of how sweet they were. I ended up finding a cat that I absolutely fell in love with and was able to take him home that day. They were also kind enough to lend me a carrier because he was a hefty boy. I 100% recommend this place.
My wife, I and daughter made an appointment. We get there and fill out the papers and go to the back, many different cats in cages. We chose the oldest resident, he was 5yr old and he was our new cat. It took 2-3 months for our cat to relax, now he is my wife's best friend. BTW our daughter is very autistic, no one said anything about her being abnormal and she was allowed in the cage with the cat for at least 30 minutes.
This cat care clinic took very good care of our 2 cats. Both were spaded. I was informed from entering the facility of all pertinent information. They did really well with our kitties.
