Pet Food Pantry Needs You
Your donation of supplies to the Pet Food Pantry means that pets and their humans can stay together in hard times. Kate — owner of Oliver, Winter, Miso, and Bento —found out firsthand how vital it is to have someone to turn to when in need.

“We hit some hard times when my husband died, leaving us with thousands in medical bills. I don’t know how I would have fed my pets without the help from SAFE Haven. I was afraid we might need to surrender our pets, which would have been heartbreaking.” If you can help someone like Kate, here’s how you can donate without leaving home.

Have a Meowy Little Christmas

Furever Friends
This Giving Tuesday, you helped create unbreakable bonds! Thanks to your incredible generosity, we raised over $50K and counting to support cats in need. Every donation brings us closer to matching our furry friends with their purr-fect human companions.
