Julie

This is a temporary reserved cat. This status typically lasts for a week.
This is so that an interested party can think about a possible adoption proposal. It is still possible to apply as a reserve.

Julie is one of Haven's blind cats. She is 2 years old and has a gentle character.

She is good with other cats and friendly dogs, making her a great companion. Although she can be a bit shy when she first meets you, she quickly develops into a friendly and affectionate cat.

She needs some time to get used to new people, but once she gets comfortable she shows her loving nature.

A cat can adapt very well to blindness. Julie is therefore very independent. But an adopter should not forget that she is blind and take that into account.

She had eye surgery where her eyes were removed and closed. Despite this challenge, Julie adapts well and navigates her environment well.

Like all Safe Haven Egypt cats, Julie has received her basic vaccinations against common feline diseases and rabies. She is microchipped, dewormed and has undergone anti-flea treatment. Julie is litter box trained and has been sterilized.

Safe Haven Egypt ensures that all cats are kept in safe indoor environments and are not allowed to roam freely. Julie can go outside in one catio or a very well-enclosed garden.

When adopted, Julie travels with a negative rabies laboratory certificate, a sturdy cat box and all documentation of the cat.

We invite potential adopters to our adoption procedure to read. You can always contact us if you have any questions to contact us.

Julie is a special cat who deserves a loving and patient home. With the right care and attention she will certainly be an enrichment for her new family.

Maxine

Maxine is one of the many cats who have found a safe haven in Haven. Since she came to us as a kitten in August 2021, she has had a loving home. She came in with her mother and siblings when she was just a month old. Her third birthday is now approaching.

Like all cats at Safe Haven Egypt, Maxine has received her basic vaccinations against common cat diseases and rabies. She is also fitted with a microchip, has undergone a deworming treatment and had an anti-flea treatment. She is litter box trained and spayed.

About three months ago it was noticed that Maxine appeared to be blind, a condition she had not previously had. A specialist veterinarian confirmed this. It is not clear what happened, possibly the pressure in the eyes became too high for an unknown reason.

Despite only recently becoming blind, Maxine has adapted. Maxine is naturally friendly, but since her sudden blindness she is still insecure. She can sometimes scream loudly when someone touches her.

Maxine is also almost completely deaf.

Deaf & blind; This means that respect for her personal space is very important. Respectful people around her are needed.

Despite these challenges, she is good with other cats and has a calm nature.

Each Safe Haven Egypt cat travels with a negative rabies laboratory certificate, a sturdy cat box and all documentation of the cat.

Maxine, like all our cats, is an indoor cat. She is not allowed to walk around freely, but in a catio or a very well-enclosed garden, she can come outside. She is a loving cat who needs a caring home where she can feel safe and loved.

We ask potential adopters to our adoption procedure to read and tell us contact if there are any questions.

Fanta

Meet Fanta, one and a half years old and – yes – female. There are three times as many male ginger cats as there are female ones.

In November 2022, Koky, the founder of Safe Haven Egypt (SHE), was asked if she could help a small, red-haired baby cat who was missing a back leg. When a friend of Koky's went to pick her up from the street, she realized that the kitten had a sister.

Of course, they were both rescued and brought to the Haven, because without their mother they wouldn't stand a chance.

The SHE community gave them the names Asbury and Fanta.

Unfortunately, Asbury, the kitten with only half a hind leg, was already very ill. She died shortly afterwards, even though she was under vet care and everything was done for her. However, things went well with Fanta.

Fanta has now grown into a wonderful young lady. Apart from her intense ginger coat and beautiful markings, she has a classic Egyptian appearance: Slender, athletic build, long legs and a narrow head with a long nose and large ears.

She is simply beautiful!

Fanta loves human affection. Not a cat that jumps on your lap from day one. She needs some time to get used to new people and a new environment. But in general she loves people and gets along well with her own kind.

Apart from her first days of life, Fanta only knows the shelter and must be kept indoors in her new home. In fact, SHE never accepts unsecured outdoor access for its rescued cats because they have all experienced the safety of the Haven. Of course Fanta would appreciate a well-secured balcony or a cat-proof garden, but this is not a necessity.

Fanta has been sterilized, deflead, dewormed, chipped and vaccinated and can fly to Europe, Canada and the US. She travels with her vaccination passport and proof of active rabies protection.

If you are interested in Fanta, you can find more information about our adoption procedure here.

do not hesitate to to contact with us if you have any questions or an adoption proposal.

He has a gentle and playful personality, and is a real cuddler who likes to lie on your lap. Jonsey gets along well with other cats and dogs who are used to cats.

It is estimated that he was born in October 2023. He is now about 8 months young.

All cats at Safe Haven Egypt, including Jonsey, have received their basic vaccinations against common feline diseases and rabies. They are microchipped, have undergone a deworming treatment and an anti-flea treatment. All cats are housetrained and have undergone castration or sterilization.

Amber

Every now and then there is a cat whose rescue sticks in the memory. And while that can also be with a very cute photo, most of the time it is because of the terrible situation the cat found itself in.

We introduce you to Amber.

She came in covered in tar. It is not known how this happened. Let's hope she fell in herself. – It's hard not to immediately think the worst of people.

Amber revived thanks to the good care in Haven!

We estimate Amber to be 3 to 4 years old. She has now received her vaccinations against common cat diseases and rabies. She has been sterilized.

Has received anti-worm and anti-flea treatments. Is chipped. Graduated from the University of Litter Box Use.

Amber gets along well with other cats and cat-friendly dogs.

She is also social with people. It is not a shoulder cat but is friendly and loves cuddles.

Amber is positive for FIV, but we are confident that this will not affect her love for you.

If cats interact peacefully with each other, the risk of infection is very low. And keeping Amber alone is also an option.

FIV cats should only live indoors and benefit from a good diet and a stable routine.

Like all cats, but especially with a cat like Amber, be sure to visit the vet every year for a check-up.

If you want to read more about 'living with an FIV cat; ' This is a Dutch-language Facebook group for people with an FIV cat and this is a similar English speaking group. – See also the 'info sheet FIV' at the bottom of this message.

If you would like to give Amber a try, take a look at our adoption procedure. And please don't hesitate to ask anything. Feel free to ask!

Alfie

Our handsome boy Alfie is still looking for his own loving family!

In January 2022, a mother cat was brought to Safe Haven Egypt (SHE) with her newborn kittens. All the kittens survived, including Alfie.

While mother Tiggy and three of her babies have already been adopted, Alfie and his sister Sassafras still need a home. We would like to place them together, but they can also be rehomed separately.

Alfie has grown into a beautiful ginger tomcat and is now 2 years old. He is a bit shy at first, but has the potential to become a real cuddle cat once he has settled into his new family. In the Haven he likes to be petted on the head by his caregivers. When they don't give him enough attention, he starts following them.

Would you like to give Alfie the security of his own home where he will receive the love and attention he needs?

Like all SHE cats, Alfie has been neutered, treated against fleas and worms, microchipped and vaccinated. He can fly to Europe, Canada and the USA and of course travels with a negative rabies certificate and all necessary documents.

SHE is committed to the safety of their rescued cats. Therefore, they should be kept indoors or ideally have access to a safe outdoor area such as a well-secured balcony, cat run or cat garden.

Also take a look at our adoption procedure. And don't hesitate to contact us to contact for questions.

Sassafras

Our cuddly tortoiseshell cat Sassafras is looking for a home again!

Sassafras was admitted to Haven with her mother and four siblings when she was just one day old. Luckily all the babies survived!

The mother cat was named Tiggy by our sponsors and has already been adopted, as have two of her kittens.

In addition to Sassafras, her handsome brother Alfie is still looking for his forever home. We would of course like to place them together, but that is not a must.

Sassafras is now 2 years old and enjoys every cuddle she can get at the Haven. Although she does well there and socializes with the other fluff balls, she is desperate for the attention and love, which only her own family can give her.

Would you grant Sassafras' wish?

Like all SHE cats, Sassafras is sterilized, deflead, dewormed, chipped and vaccinated.

She can fly to Europe, Canada and the US and of course travels with a negative rabies certificate and all necessary documents.

SHE attaches great importance to the safety of its rescued cats. Therefore, they will not be allowed to roam freely in their new home. Of course they would be happy with a well-secured balcony or a cat-proof garden.

Deedee

Deedee on the street in March 2021

Deedee was born around December 2020 and came to us in March 2021 after a video of her acting strangely. This seemed to indicate a neurological problem.

We managed to rescue her from the street and bring her to Haven. She was very scared at first,

Thanks to B12 vitamin injections, her condition improved significantly.

Deedee has been at the Haven for three years and has no known health problems. She does have a tendency to tilt her head a little to the left, but this does not hinder her in her daily life.

When Deedee arrived at our home, she was very shy, but now she allows herself to be touched by Koky, the manager of the Port, and she likes to get close. We expect that after adoption it will not take much effort to get Deedee used to her new owner and to gain trust.

NB; Deedee is not a ready-made cuddle cat.

She gets along well with other cats and dogs and is litter box trained.

Like all Safe Haven Egypt cats, Deedee has received her basic vaccinations against common cat diseases and rabies, has been microchipped and has undergone deworming and anti-flea treatment. She has been sterilized and must be kept as an indoor cat, although she can go outside in a catio or a very well-enclosed garden.

When adopted, Deedee comes with a negative rabies laboratory certificate, a sturdy cat box and all necessary documentation.

We ask a potential adopter read our adoption procedure. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

*Cat with personality. She is really friendly.*

Kicho

Kichõ was born on the streets of Cairo and survived with his mother and siblings. Two of the kittens did not survive the first days on the street, but the rest were allowed to grow up in the safety that Haven has to offer after a tough start in life.

Kichõ is truly a beauty: silky soft, deep black, fluffy fur and breathtaking green eyes!

But he is also a 'shy' boy. He is not (yet) a cuddly cat. He prefers not to be touched. Trust needs to grow in some cats. Kichõ is such a cat. If he is adopted and he starts to feel safe and gains confidence in his human, that can certainly change.

A shy cat, a 'don't touch cat', has the potential to become a cuddle cat. Or a cat that one can touch to a limited extent. There are no guarantees here. An adopter must be able to accept that Kichõ can be a cat that does its own thing. Not on your lap. But possibly in the seat next to you, as long as you stay away from him.

It is estimated that Kichõ was born in April 2021. He is therefore 3 years old and has been living in Haven almost all his life.

Like all SHE cats, Kichõ is neutered, deflead, dewormed, chipped and fully vaccinated. And he knows how to use the litter box.

He can travel to Europe with a negative rabies certificate and all necessary documents. Kichõ is looking for a safe home. He must be an indoor cat or only go outside in a very well-enclosed garden.

Kichõ's coat is still short because he is still young. It may well be that his coat becomes even longer and thicker with age and in a cooler climate. Do you want to give this black beauty your heart?

If you are interested in our cats, You can find more information about the adoption procedure here. - Do not hesitate to contact us.

Currently no room in your plan for Kichõ? Maybe you know who can give a home to a cat that is more difficult to place? – Sharing is caring! (buttons at the bottom)
