Why donate?

If you love cats and don’t want to see them suffer, donate to SAFE Haven for Cats. We will take immediate action to save cats’ lives.

For our community’s stray cats, donations literally make the difference between neglect and nurturing, hurting and health, life and death, loneliness and a loving home.

In addition, your gift helps us continue our important national and regional work:

• To end euthanasia of healthy cats, kittens and feral cats in the Triangle and in North Carolina.
• To support community T/N/V/R efforts.
• To provide low-cost spay/neuter services to anyone in our community who needs them.
• To educate our neighbors about animal welfare and behavior.
• To prevent animal hoarding, intervening when necessary.

With 28 years of service to animals and the people of Wake, Durham, Orange, Johnston, Franklin, Granville and Harnett counties, SAFE Haven for Cats has a long-standing record of careful stewardship of your gifts. See how we’ve made use of donations like yours to save cat lives by downloading our Impact Statement.

SAFE Haven for Cats relies almost entirely on individual donations like yours. As a private animal welfare organization, we are not supported by government funds/grants of any kind.

We truly appreciate your generosity and commitment to cats. Please join us in this effort with a tax-deductible donation today. Our Federal Tax I.D. Number is 56-1916620

• Sponsor a Cat

Ready to love but unable to adopt? You can make an enormous difference in an animal’s life by sponsoring a cat until a permanent home is ready for them. Your donation will help provide food, care and necessary medical attention until a loving family comes along.

Donate Now! As a virtual sponsor of a SAFE Haven adoptable cat for only $25, you provide needed medical treatment, food, socialization and care while he or she waits for a loving home. In return for your generosity, your name will be listed on the sponsored cat’s enclosure. In addition, you will receive a photo, history and adoption notices via email.

View all the cats ready for adoption, pick the one(s) you want to sponsor and click on the “Sponsor Me” button. Be sure to write their names in the “Cat(s) to Sponsor” box on the donation form.
