Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary

Safe Haven Pet Sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) no-kill, cage-free sanctuary located in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Their incredible mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, care for, and find forever homes for cats and dogs with special needs and disabilities, as well as to educate the public on their care and nutritional needs. They bravely accept cases of abuse, neglect, hoarding situations, and animals with various physical and psychological disabilities, including FIV+, FELV+, blindness, paralysis, and missing limbs, as well as neonatal kittens and puppies and senior animals. Operating entirely on donations, they only euthanize animals when they are suffering and there are no other options.
