The Cat Chronicle – June 2023
A-MEOW-zing Generosity!
Thank you to everyone who dropped off or sent donations during our Kitten Shower last month! You gave 1,053 cans of food (234 pounds of wet food), 245 pounds of dry food, 114 pounds of litter and more! That means we can continue helping these sweet little ones when they need us. The kittens thank you!

Immediate Need: Dry Cat Food
Our kittens aren’t the only ones who can use your help. The Pet Food Pantry needs donations to feed both cats and dogs in our community. Dry cat food is always in high demand. During our Pet Food Pantry Drive June 11-17, you can drop off donations – just look for the pink tent. Click here to learn more about our food drive.
You can even help without leaving the house – ship them directly to us through Amazon or your favorite online pet store. You can also visit our campaign on Cuddly to give as well!
Microchipping is Vital
Did you know 10 million pets are lost each year? Collars and tags are great ways to identify lost pets and reunite them with owners, but they can easily come off or be removed. But never fear because peace of mind is as small as a grain of rice! Microchips are a safe, painless, and most importantly, effective way to ensure your kitty comes home if it gets lost. Click here to learn why microchipping is a great idea.
DYK: Cats adopted from SAFE Haven are already microchipped, but microchips can be purchased and implanted at our SAFE Care Spay/Neuter Clinic at the time of spay/neuter surgery for only $15.
Now Hiring: Director of Development
We’re looking for a Development Director! The Director of Development creates and implements a fundraising plan detailing how the organization can obtain financial support; often, the plan identifies sources such as individual contributors, grants, charitable events, marketing opportunities, and corporate philanthropy. Additionally, this role oversees community programs and outreach, creates marketing and public relations materials, and acts as a community champion of the organization, amplifying its message and impact to maximize visibility and sustain its mission. Think you might be a good fit for this role? Interested candidates with significant nonprofit and development experience should email their resume to patti@safehavenforcats.org. No phone calls, please.
