Now comes the fun part: Meeting the cats! Allow the cats to come up to and socialize with you. Holding the cats is not permitted. Cats, of course, are just like people. They all have their own unique personalities - some are shy and some are outgoing.

All of the cats, except for the two resident kitties, are for adoption through Stray Haven Rescue. If you think you’ve met the purr-fect cat for your family, fill out an adoption application.
