Iggy is a very special lady. She has Cerebellar Hypoplasia which is a neurological condition in which the cerebellum is smaller than usual or it is not developed all the way. It is commonly known as "Wobbles." Iggy is also blind in both eyes. She is a very sweet girl and gets along with some cats but not all of them. She finds herself a spot and will lie down and sleep all day! Because of her CH, she sometimes flips over food dishes and sometimes misses the litter box when she pees but it's no big deal because we all love her and understand her condition. She would be best in a home with no children because of her condition and blindness. If you are interested in adopting Iggy, please fill out an application on our website here!

Please remember that we pick the best fit for our animals especially those with special needs!

ABOUT ANIMAL HAVEN:

The Animal Haven is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization whose mission since 1948 has been to provide humane refuge for homeless, abandoned, or surrendered cats and dogs, while we strive to find them loving, permanent homes. 

The Animal Haven is a private, not-for-profit animal shelter that has been providing refuge to homeless cats and dogs since 1948. The Animal Haven was established as a no-kill shelter, which it continues to be to this day. This means that we will not euthanize an animal, except when it is in the best interest of a sick or dying animal. The shelter is located in a beautiful, wooded area on a seven-acre parcel of land located in North Haven, CT.

We take in homeless, abandoned, and surrendered cats and dogs from the Greater New Haven area and beyond. We also take in animals from municipal shelters if they are at risk of being euthanized. All animals that enter The Animal Haven receive physical examinations and health assessments and are vaccinated against disease. Ongoing problems are monitored and addressed. We have a mandatory spay-neuter policy for all animals to assist in reducing the unwanted dog and cat population.

The Animal Haven's first priority (in addition to taking in homeless animals) is to find them loving, permanent homes. The staff members at The Animal Haven spend time with each animal to understand his or her personality and needs. This helps us to find a home that best suits each animal and to recommend a dog or cat that is the best fit for each person or family. We never give up on an animal. If a cat or dog is not adoptable for any reason, he or she will live with us at the shelter for the rest of his or her life.
