We are a Community Resource for you!
The "Sanctuary" is our concept for providing a nurturing environment for animals in need.
Our facility is home to most of our cats and dogs, although some reside in foster homes initially. This helps us to learn about their behavioral traits and make "right match" placements.
Our animals are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, treated for fleas and parasites and tested for heartworm. This means that any animal adopted from The Sanctuary at Haafsville is ready to start a new life in your home.
We are a volunteer-based organization and are very conservative financially which allows us to provide exceptional care to our resident animals. We are funded by our ongoing fundraising efforts, donations and our partnerships.
