How to leave a legacy

Perhaps a cat has played an important part in your life, or you care deeply about cat welfare in WA. Have you ever considered leaving a lasting legacy to Cat Haven by including us in your will?

As the only open admission cat shelter in WA, we never say "no" to any cat. With thousands of cats and kittens coming through our doors each year, and only 2-3% of our annual operating costs funded by the State Government, every contribution is vital. Your generosity keeps Cat Haven running and leaves behind a truly admirable legacy - ensuring we can continue to care for cats for years to come.

We understand that family and friends are at the forefront of your thoughts when making decisions about your will. Keeping your will up to date is one of the best ways to safeguard your beloved pets.

As a way of saying thank you for considering us in your will, we have partnered with Safewill to save you 50% off, when creating an online will for the first time.

Rehoming your cats

In the sad event that your cat survives you, Cat Haven is here to help. We will endeavour to find them a similar home, minimising the stress caused by such a huge change.

We ask that you clearly mention this in your estate, and ensure friends and family are aware of your wishes for us to rehome your cat. We will supply you with small card which you can carry in your wallet or purse. This card will explain how someone might contact Cat Haven to organise the best possible care of your cats.

So that we can find the best match possible, we would need as much information as possible about your cat's likes, dislikes, habits and idiosyncrasies.
