Providing a Lifelong Sanctuary for Florida’s Special Needs Cats for Over Two Decades
Our 20-Year Mission: Saving Special-Needs Cats
For over 20 years, Puffy Paws Kitty Haven has been a cage-free, loving home for senior, disabled, and blind cats.
We aren't a regular shelter. Our 3,600-square-foot sanctuary is a place where cats get 24/7 care and a real second chance. We have zero corporate sponsors. We survive completely on the love of cat lovers like you.
📦 Keeping Our Supplies Ready During Seasonal Shifts
Taking care of 120 senior and hospice cats means we can't wait until the last minute to get ready. Early preparation is their only lifeline to make sure their daily care never stops.
Right now, during these seasonal changes, local store shelves clear out fast and shipping routes get delayed. We are working hard to build a solid 7-day backup supply of specialized food, heavy cat litter, clean water, and backup power supplies before any delivery problems happen.
When you help us get these supplies today, you make sure our cats stay safe, clean, and completely protected through these seasonal changes.
Check our numbers below to see exactly what the cats need right now..

Seasonal Readiness & Inventory Planning
📋 Sanctuary Supply Readiness
Puffy Paws always keeps our cats safe when the weather changes. Right now, higher supply costs mean we need to make sure our shelves stay completely filled.
Our top focus is keeping a steady supply of food and care items for our senior hospice cats and kittens.
We are putting together a solid 7-day safety stock of specialized food, cat litter, cleaning items, water, and backup utility supplies.
We will be using a rental truck to pick up and move everything straight to the Haven.
You can see the exact breakdown of our weekly needs and prices right here on this page.
