I first visited Animal Haven several weeks ago. My husband and I had lost our beloved cat/furry boy of 14 years and we have mourned and miss him so deeply. I miss that little happy face looking up at me when I petted him while making the morning coffee. Yes, I am a responsible adult but I just melt into a loving goo when in the company of cats. I really just wanted to go to Animal Haven to pet a cat. Any cat. I needed to feel the furry joy/love you can only get from a critter.
My husband said he wasn't ready yet to look at another pet so I went by myself. At Animal Haven I found a modern, welcoming, bright building and staff and I walked into a bright sunny room with ca. 15 adoptable cats in it and my heart just melted. I was given the opportunity to see other cats and spoke to some of the staff and within about 20 minutes I was asking if they needed any volunteers. I was hooked. I love this place. They love their critters and take great care of them. I know.
I am not a push-over with my time - I work full time; my husband is disabled and my heart still has room to give help to these beautiful critters.
I presently volunteer on Saturday mornings and for me it is a slice of heaven. Animal Haven is super-worthy of any support you can give them. Please help if you can with a donation. Thanks
