The shelter began in the two-car, heated, and air-conditioned garage of founder Pam Miller in 1994. SAFE Haven’s first 400 cats were adopted from that garage. Five years later, SAFE Haven moved to a larger facility in a business center on Durant Road in Raleigh, opening the Triangle’s first permanent no-kill shelter for cats. In 2001, the SAFE Care Spay / Neuter Clinic was opened, a major initiative. At that time, it was the only freestanding clinic for cats in North Carolina. In 2012, SAFE Haven launched a pet food pantry to supply food to low-income households or people experiencing temporary financial hardship who are in danger of having to give up their companion animals. SAFE Haven has expanded twice and now occupies rental space in two buildings: one space for the adoption center and the other for the spay/neuter clinic.
