Pet Haven Inc.
Our Mission
Pet Haven Cat Adoption Center is a nonprofit, limited-admission, no-kill shelter dedicated to giving cats a second chance and helping them find loving, permanent homes in our community.
A Legacy of Compassion
Founded by Helen Wilson in 1972, Pet Haven holds the distinction of being Canyon County’s first and oldest animal shelter. What began as a personal mission to protect strays has grown into a community-supported organization that has, since 1996, operated from our own dedicated facility focused exclusively on the needs of felines.
How We Help
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that receives no government funding, we rely entirely on the generosity of our supporters to provide a clean, safe, and loving environment for cats in transition. We are committed to promoting the health and well-being of cats through comprehensive care, including spaying, neutering, and vaccinations for all our adoptable residents, alongside low-cost services for the community.
Finding Your Purr-fect Match
We believe that adoption is a joyful partnership, and our team is here to help you find a companion that suits your lifestyle. When you visit our cattery, we provide insights into each cat’s unique personality, history, and compatibility with your household, ensuring a thoughtful match for both you and your new furry friend.

Whether you are ready to adopt, interested in volunteering, or want to support our life-saving work, there are many ways to get involved.

10/8 - Meet Tucker Tucker is one of our longest residents at Pet Haven. He's a staff favorite and a loverboy for sure! Some of the best friendships take a little time, and Tucker is proof that they're worth the wait. This handsome tuxedo boy may be a little shy when you first meet him, but don't let that fool you. Tucker is quietly watching, learning, and waiting until he knows he's safe. Once he settles in, he'll thank you with gentle purrs, sweet head bumps, and plenty of cuddle time. Tucker is looking for a patient family who understands that every cat adjusts differently. He isn't the type to steal the spotlight on day one, but give him a little grace, a cozy place to hide, and lots of love, and you'll watch his confidence grow more every day. He's a young cat with many happy years ahead of him and would love nothing more than a home where he can finally relax, play, and become your loyal companion. Tucker also does well with children who understand how to respect a cat's space while he settles in. Tucker's Highlights +Handsome tuxedo gentleman +Young and playful +Affectionate once he feels comfortable +Looking for a patient family willing to let him adjust at his own pace +Good with respectful children +Litter box trained If you're the kind of person who believes the best relationships are built on trust, Tucker is ready to show you just how rewarding that journey can be. Give him a little time, and he'll give you his whole heart. Want to meet Tucker?

10/5 - Hi, We're Woody and Buzz! (Not the movie stars! We get that a lot! ) 🧡We're a 6-month-old orange tabby boy and brown tabby boy who are already neutered and ready for our forever home. We come as a bonded pair - we're inseparable, so we'd love to be adopted together and keep our friendship going strong. 😸Woody is a little shy at first, but with patience and love, we know he'll blossom into your most devoted companion. Buzz is a little shy at first too, but with patience and time, he'll also show you just how sweet he can be. At just 5.8 pounds, he's the perfect pocket-sized companion for someone looking for a gentle, growing kitty to bond with. They are a dynamic duo! Our adoption fee is $160 — come visit us and help these shy guys discover their confidence! 😊 #AdoptDontShop #AdoptACat #SupportRescueCats #bondedcats #bondedpair
