Hi, I’m Olivia! I’m a spunky, confident, curious, playful little nugget who LOVES people! I’ll happily follow you around like a tiny, furry shadow. Snuggles, pets, laser chasing, and wild kitten zoomies with my bestie, Monkey, are my favorite things!My sweet girl, Monkey, is shyer and more cautious.

Meanwhile, I’ll happily supply all the kitten kisses, cuddles, and silly antics your heart desires!We’d love a home without young, fast-moving kiddos to start.

5. Zinnia / Oaklynn

Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

I’m Oaklynn, a bold, bubbly, curious little sweetheart (just over 3 months old) with a big personality and an even bigger love for humans. I adore cozy cuddles, gentle pets, after I get my energy out chasing those irresistible lasers, and racing around with my partner-in-crime, Zinnia (4 months old)!My bestie, Zinnia, is a softer, more timid little soul. She didn’t get much human interaction when she was tiny, so she needs extra time to feel safe and secure. But trust me, watching her confidence grow is pure magic! My foster parents say every bit of patience (and every delicious Churu treat!) has been worth it.

6. Clive

Kitten · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Clive is an active, busy 3-month-old kitten, looking for his forever home!This guy is an adorable boy with cow-coloring, just your typical mischievous kitten! He will keep you on your toes as he’s always trying to see what he can get away with. Of course, he also loves a good play session and is quite the adventurer, always getting into things.Clive lives in a home with an adult human who works from home, his fellow foster kitten, Arthur, and one adult cat. They have their own space downstairs but spend the day upstairs hanging out with the rest of the family. Clive is busy with all of his mountain ascents.

Read more about Clive

His new home will need at least one cat tree and multiple scratchers for enrichment and entertainment. Because he has never met a peak (or large object) that he hasn’t wanted to dramatically climb, Clive should probably not be in a home with expensive leather furniture!This guy is friendly and outgoing. He does well with other cats (he’d love an equally busy, active, feline friend), and would probably do great with relaxed, cat-savvy dogs and children, given slow introductions. Active people who work from home or are around a lot would also be perfect for this little adventure man.If you’re looking to add some love and fun to your home this fall, Clive can’t wait to meet you!— — —All cats have received comprehensive veterinary care and tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV unless otherwise stated.

7. Bernie

Kitten · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Bernie is a 3.5-month-old tenderhearted soul who snores like a tiny freight train.This little guy started out as a hesitant resident! Cautious but curious, he’d hang back and let his siblings explore before making his way into the fray when he felt safe and comfortable. He has since outgrown his trepidation and is now as wily and rambunctious as the rest of the crew.Bernie has serious FOMO and wants to join the fun when he's sure it's safe. When he’s not busy wrestling or chasing a toy, he certainly has a lot to say. And when he opens his mouth to tell you something, his surprisingly old-man meow makes it sound as though he's about to complain about the price of pudding.Bernie currently lives with his two adult foster humans and his siblings (Anita, Gertrude, Milton, Stanley, and Stewart), who give him familiar companionship and opportunities to play and build confidence.Pet Haven requires that Bernie go home with one of his adorable siblings, or into a home with a friendly, active young cat who can be his playmate.

Read more about Bernie

A patient, caring home, that lets him settle in gradually, and warm up at his own pace, will help him feel secure and blossom into an incredible companion. Bernie may need a little time in the beginning, but his soft heart and unmistakable voice make him a very special little guy who will quickly become a fan favorite!-----There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown.

8. Augie / Malachai

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Augie and Malachai, a sweet, bonded, 5-year-old pair, are going to be the fun and warm part of the cold winter days that are fast approaching! Augie will be your personal heating pad, keeping you cozy on both your shoulders and your lap.This guy is a lover; he will take hours of naps with you. However, when he is rested, he will find interesting and high-up places from which to survey his kingdom. Malachai is the lazy one, who takes life as it comes. He prefers to relax on the floor and invite you to rub his tummy. These two are independent most of the time, but also groom each other.Both Augie and Malachai have a brief period of zoomies each day.

Read more about Augie / Malachai

They are not very talkative unless it's 5 o'clock, when they are ready for wet cat food; they have no qualms about letting the chef know if he is behind schedule! Malachai has a heartier appetite; therefore, it’s best to feed them in separate dishes, about 10 feet apart, so Malachai doesn’t eat all of Augie’s leftovers.Most of all, though, they enjoy hanging out nearby. If you sit in a room, the chances are good they will show up and find comfy places to nap on you next to you.We live in a 3 bedroom house. and are home most of the time. We are out of the house for 6 hours at a stretch, a few times a week, and the cats have been okay with that. Augie and Malachai have been super about using the litter box(es).Augie and Malachai will be very adaptable to people of all ages, young and old. They are on a special diet for kidney health and are eating both wet and dry cat food, so their care is extremely simple. Their forever people should be committed to continuing with their renal food, so they can live their happiest and healthiest lives.Ready for double the fun this fall?

14. Sprout / Fern

Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Fern and Sprout, 12-week-old, sweet kittens, are looking for their forever home together! Fern and Sprout are sweet, quiet, introverted tabbies. Together this bonded pair inspires confidence in each other, and you will often find them snuggling together on a cat tree in front of a window. When meeting new people, they may be a little shy at first but will generally warm up quickly when a feather wand or snack is introduced. Fern is an independent lady that makes earning her attention especially rewarding. Fern can get spooked if you approach her too quickly but once you start petting her, she immediately gets her purr motor running, and she doesn’t want you to stop.

Read more about Sprout / Fern

She is more active of the two and enjoys wrestling or chasing around her foster siblings. She is more play motivated than food motivated. Sprout is a calm, gentle presence with the sweetest of faces. She is a natural nurturer and is often seen cleaning her foster siblings and being especially affectionate towards those that may not be feeling well. Sprout is more easily won over with Churus and snacks. You offer her that good stuff, she recognizes you’re ‘good people’ and will allow you to pick her up for snuggles. She just curls up and melts into your arms. Generally, Fern and Sprout are chilled and laid back. They are great at entertaining themselves and each other and are not demanding of their humans’ attention. They are quiet observers that prefer to be in the same room as people. Fern and Sprout are currently being fostered alongside their 3 foster siblings (fellow Pet Haven kittens- Zig, Zag, and Zoom), three resident cats, and a gentle Great Pyrenees dog.

15. Dobby

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Dobby is a 5-year-old, independent and curious companion looking for his forever home!This adorable guy is a curious, playful, and independent cat who enjoys being part of the action. He likes interactive play, especially stalking toys, and he has a particular fondness for playing with wand toys when they are hiding under a blanket or peeking out from somewhere. He also enjoys catnip kicker toys.When he's not playing, Dobby likes watching the world outside, exploring the house, climbing, and finding comfortable places to relax. He's an observant cat with a lot of personality, and he is an excellent household supervisor! Dobby loves investigating whatever his people are doing, and has a particular fascination with anything involving movement or activity.

Read more about Dobby

He is always ready to watch wildlife through the window, explore elevated spaces, check out new objects, and get involved in “helping” with household chores.Dobby has become increasingly comfortable with his foster family and accepts affection and attention, although he's still an independent guy who likes to have some say in how interactions happen. He is also very food motivated!This good boy has a moderate to moderately high energy level. He has a strong hunting and chasing drive, but also spends substantial time relaxing, sleeping, watching the outdoors, and hanging out around the house. With his curious nature, he benefits from daily interactive play and opportunities to climb, explore, and investigate.Dobby lives in a single-family home with two adults and a resident cat. He has access to multiple rooms of the house and enjoys climbing, playing, and relaxing in different areas. He has several elevated resting places and opportunities to watch the birds and squirrels of the neighborhood through the windows.This guy would thrive with adopters who appreciate an independent, playful cat and are willing to let him settle into a new environment at his own pace. He does best with people who pay attention to his body language and allow him to choose when and how he interacts.Dobby’s ideal home will provide plenty of opportunities for interactive play, climbing adventures, and keeping an eye on the world outside from a window perch. He would enjoy people who want a cat who will be involved in household life without necessarily needing to be a lap cat.This handsome dude may be happiest as an only cat, although he has shown interest in and a willingness to interact with another cat in foster care. If adopted into a home with another cat, introductions should be slow and carefully managed. He may also do well with a friendly, easygoing adult cat who enjoys playing but doesn’t need a full-blown wrestling partner, is comfortable setting boundaries and then walking away, and who responds to other cats with curiosity rather than defensiveness.Dobby has come an incredibly long way since entering foster care. He was extremely stressed in the shelter, but in a home environment he has shown himself to be playful, curious, and full of personality.This boy is learning to trust; he does best when people approach him calmly and give him appropriate space. He can become overstimulated by sudden movement or interactions that he isn't expecting, so his adopters should pay attention to his body language and allow him to disengage when he needs a break. As he's become more comfortable and learned his routines, these situations have become much more manageable and less frequent.He is not a typical lap cat; he is an independent companion who often prefers being near his people, supervising what they're doing, playing with them, or relaxing nearby. He’d love to join your family and add some special magic to your home this fall!There is no guarantee of age and breed as a rescue animal's history is unknown.

Young · Male · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

Squirt and Runa are a 5-month old, sweet and dynamic duo that became buddies when they entered foster care and are looking to find their forever home together!Squirt (aka Squirtle) is a social butterfly once he gets comfortable with his surroundings and with new people. Once he’s relaxed, his purr motor starts, and if you engage in chatting with him, he'll keep chatting back and sometimes elongate his sweet meows as he makes a particularly important point in the conversation. A dedicated cardio guy, he enjoys using the cat wheel and will sometimes shout while he's on a stroll throughout the house–just to make sure you know what he's up to.

Read more about Squirt / Runa

He's quick to greet his foster and demand pets/cuddles.Runa (aka Runes) is a quiet, reserved, slightly skittish girl who requires patience when adjusting to a new environment. However, once she's comfortable, she'll follow you and patiently wait for you to refill the food bowl or water dish. This pretty girl can be affectionate when she wishes. She really enjoys relaxing on the window perch and while she's not the most cuddly, she does like to be near her people. She's a speedy gal and great at hiding. Like her best friend Squirt, Runa enjoys the cat wheel, as well as wrestling matches followed by cuddle sessions.Both can be seen dragging around their toy of choice throughout the house; Squirt especially enjoys this with longer toys that are nearly the length of his body.These two have definite kitten energy, with Squirt being a little bit more active. They like to try to get into stuff (tissue or paper towels are special faves) or get underfoot when you’re walking around. Playing with them, and keeping them busy and engaged, is a great way to help them get their energy out!Squirt and Runa currently live in a townhome with one adult, another pair of kittens and 3 adult cats (including fellow Pet Haven kitties Take Off and the bonded pair of Now and Then). They'd love a home with forever humans who work from home or are around a lot, as they truly love people, but they are okay being by themselves for short amounts of time. Since Runa is so skittish, a quieter home would likely be best. The kittens are currently separated from the other cats in the house in the evening so they have full access to their kitten food all night. (This is necessary to prevent the other cats in the house from gobbling up this tasty treat!)Squirt and Runa’s foster human currently works from home most days, and they like to relax on a blanket between her and her keyboard, using an arm as a pillow.Their only interaction with kids has been at an adoption event and it went well; due to Runa’s reserved nature, they would do best with gentle, cat-savvy, older children. Squirt and Runa are so ready to enjoy a caring, calm, compassionate home where they can bring their unique blend of kitten charm and silliness.

Young · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 18 mi from Eden Prairie

These cute, fluffy bffs, hailing from Nowthen, MN (hence their names), love finding a cozy spot to cuddle, followed by bursts of energy as they play with a variety of toys! They'll snuggle up together or next to/on top of their foster human, and can become little purring machines. They have enjoyed pretty much all of the toys, and love to get their hands on things like paper towels or tissues.Now is a bit more reserved than Then, and can take some time to feel comfortable meeting new people. They are both curious, and like to stay close by so they can monitor all the happenings in the house.Now occasionally enjoys a jog on the cat wheel, while Then likes to be prepared for food and occasionally growls when others approach at meal time, or when he's not into sharing his very favorite toy.These two have typical kitten energy; they are into everything and are always getting into things and running next to/between your feet.

Read more about Now / Then

It’s important to always look down when these two are out and about!Giving them a wide range of toys and engaging in interactive play with them is helpful, along with their wrestling matches in the Octagon that discharge some of their youthful energy.These two live in a townhome with one adult, another pair of kittens and 3 adult cats. (They are currently in a foster with three other Pet Haven kitties: Take Off, and the bonded pair of Squirt and Runa.)They'd do best in an active home that's not empty most of the time, because they love people, but they are okay being by themselves for short periods of time. The kittens are currently separated from the other cats in the evening, so they have access to their own food all night. (This prevents the other cats in the home from devouring the kitten food, which they would love to do if given access.)Their foster human currently works from home most days, and they like to lay on a blanket between her and her keyboard, using an arm as a pillow.Now is currently being treated for lung inflammation and panting. If the issues persist after this treatment, he likely has asthma and we will look at getting him on an inhaler. Their only interaction with children so far was at an adoption event, but they would be fine with gentle, cat-savvy kids. Their forever people will have to be comfortable with brushing and cleaning their beautiful long fur to keep them free of mats. They use the litterbox like champs, but do like to dig sometimes, so a high-sided box would be best.Now and Then are guaranteed to bring double the smiles and kitten fun this fall.

Meet Massey Ferguson (aka "Fergie" - Momma)
My name is Massey Ferguson, but my friends call me Fergie! I’m a bit older than the rest of the crew, which just means I'm a lady who is set in her ways. I spent my earlier days as a tough barn cat, and while I am incredibly happy to be safe and warm in a house, I still prefer it if humans leave me to my own devices. I am a gentle soul and have never shown a single ounce of aggression—I just get a little nervous and prefer to hide when people come too close. I find an immense amount of comfort and confidence when I'm with my fellow tractor momma, Allis, and I would love a quiet home where I can just coexist and learn to trust on my own timeline.

Personality: Independent, quiet, and very set in her ways.

Social style: Prefers her space from humans but is completely devoted to her feline friends.

Dream home: A calm, understanding environment with her best friend Allis, and a family who doesn't mind letting a sweet cat just be a cat.

Sprocket and sibliigs were surrendered from farm in MN.
⚙️ Meet Sprocket

My name is Sprocket! I listened very carefully to my mom's barn stories about humans, and to be honest, I’m still not entirely convinced she was wrong. I like to keep my distance and play it safe by watching my littermates whenever my foster mom is around. They all seem to absolutely love her! They climb all over her and I hear them purring away, so they must know something I don't. I might be ready to open up and join the machinery soon, but for now, I'm just taking my time.

Personality: Observant, cautious, and a little independent.

. Meet Pedal

My name is Pedal! I’m the tiniest tractor part of the whole bunch, and I look very dapper in my permanent black-and-white tuxedo outfit.

Now that I know how wonderful people are, I absolutely crave attention and love.

Personality: Smallest of the litter, brave, and now loves the spotlight.

Look: Classic, adorable tuxedo kitten.

Adopting a cat with children in Eden Prairie

Bring the whole family to meet the cat before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the cat behaves around children your kids' ages.

Teach children to let the cat come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the cat alone while it's eating, sleeping or using the litter box. Give the cat a high or quiet spot to retreat to.

Relaxed adult cats are often a better match for young children than kittens, which scratch and nip while they play.
