Here’s a Recent Weekly Sentinel Feature

Alert: Cuteness Overload! Totally hamming it up for the camera are Gremlin and Stash.

Look how intently they gaze at you. It’s almost spellbinding. That look on their fuzzy faces and the eye contact says, “We are your next cats. Hurry up and take us home!” 

The name “Stash” threw me at first. But then I looked at the white handlebar mustache on his face! He looks like a kitty sheriff from the old west!  

Gremlin has beautiful symmetrical markings and a face that is just begging to be kissed — right on that cute pink nose!  

These two brothers were abandoned by their owner during eviction. Fortunately, they were brought to Safe Haven, where (no surprise) they have stolen the hearts of the volunteers who care for them. 

Both are really sweet, but Gremlin is a little bit braver. Stash is still shy, but he is becoming braver by the day. Both are friendly and affectionate. 

They get praises for being very neat kitties, always using their litter boxes, and are not picky eaters at all. 

Interested? Fill out our Adoption Form to start the process. 

Want to meet them? They’re at our shelter, 1420 Post Road in Wells. It’s open weekdays from 11am-1:30pm and weekends by appointment. Call 207-646-1611.

As our shop continues to grow, we’re currently seeking several more volunteers to price donations. Volunteers will be taught how to research and price items and mark them to be ready for display in our shop. You’ll work with another volunteer, for 3 hours once a week. Please text 207-229-8314. Thank you.

Speaking of shopping, you could buy us something from our Amazon Wish List. Thanks so much for all your support!

Donations of cat food, litter and cleaning supplies are always needed and very welcome. Bring them in during business hours any day of the week.

Are you seeing outdoor cats in your yard? Please don’t turn your back on them. Maine weather shows no mercy to cats and kittens living outside. If you know someone who is overwhelmed with cats or may be neglecting their pets, please don’t ignore that. You are that animal’s life link. Every life matters.
