If you're working for home or just playing it safe by practicing social distancing, now is a perfect time to bring a new furry family member into the fold. Email us any questions about any cats we have and we will be happy to provide any additional information you may need. If you are approved for adoption, we are now doing curbside adoptions in order to minimize contact.

"I need snuggles, can you help?" Met Ben! Is Ben a Newfie, is he a chow? We don't know! What we do know is that Ben is going to be BIG and Ben is going to be FLUFFY! Ben is only about 3 months old and both he and his brother, Jerry, are two adorable fluffballs looking for their forever homes. They already have thick, long fur and black spots on their tongue, but their breed is a mystery, unless you count "CUTE" as a breed; they've perfected the art of CUTE! **Update: several Newfie experts have confirmed that Ben is a purebred Newfoundland.** Ben and Jerry JUST arrived to Safe House after a scary ordeal in a big animal control facility in Southern Illinois. Ben and Jerry are a little frazzled by their ordeal and seem a little shy because of that. Extra snuggles, love, and lap time is all that's needed to win these babies over, and who isn't up for some puppy snuggling? Ben and Jerry will be neutered on 3/21 and available the next day. But it simply doesn't get any more adorable than this, so submit an adoption application today! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, current on vaccinations, microchipped, and tested negative for heartworm. All dogs have a $150 adoption fee. If you are interested in meeting or adopting this dog, please complete an adoption application at www.safehousepets.org/adopt and a volunteer will contact you promptly.

While we try to keep our animal listings up-to-date online, sometimes the age range may be labelled incorrectly. Please don't hesitate to contact us for the most up-to-date information on a particular cat.  Our cats are shown by appointment - we are a foster based rescue and so we don't have a location with set hours.

If you are interested in adopting or would like to meet our cats, please fill out our adoption application online at www.safehousepets.org/info/adoption and a volunteer will contact you promptly.
