Hadley Home For Wayward Cats

A Sanctuary for Unadoptable Cats to Live a Long and Healthy Life

About US

Dan & Jackie Hadley have been in the cat rescue network in Arizona since 2006, at first with Desert Paws Rescue organization. In 2014, it became obvious to them that they would have to step in differently, as an increasing number of cats were unadoptable (wayward) and that nobody would foster them any longer.

They founded Hadley Home For Wayward Cats to provide a forever home to unadoptable and special needs cats who would have been euthanized if no solution would have been created in the meantime.

Ways to support our cat sanctuary

Be a Donor, Adopt a Cat, Be a Hero

Be a Donor

Providing a forever home for wayward cats comes at a cost that can be counted in thousands of dollars when emergency veterinary visits are suddenly necessary and urgent.

By becoming a recurring donor of the amount of your choice, you provide the sanctuary a reliable source of income that allow them to plan ahead of time for these cases.

Adopt a Cat

Most of our cats are available for adoption.

By stepping up and becoming a cat parent, you not only give your home to some of our sanctuary cats, you also allow us to have more room to rescue the next cats who will cross our path.

If you lost a cat, along with our condolences, we can open the doors of our sanctuary to give you some kitty love to help heal the pain of loss.

Be a Hero

Regardless if you are able to donate or adopt, there is still something that you can do that is of immense value to the sanctuary:

Spread the word! Share our newsletter with your email list and your social media followers.

Let people know that you are involved in making the world a better place for our cats as well.

They all have a story,

and their story matters as much as your story.

Our mission

What we do

At Hadley Home For WayWard Cats, we are focused on providing a new beginning for unadoptable cats who might otherwise be euthanized.

We provide a safe, loving foster environment for rehabilitation and medical needs, and provide them with their forever homes.

Adoption

How It Works

Talk With Us

Giving a forever home to a special needs cat requires a few important elements to be discussed about, such as the environment, the love and care, the financial ability to keep up with medical costs, and more.

Fall in Love

You don't pick any cat. You come to the sanctuary, and you let the cats feel you out and choose you as their forever parent. Sometimes it takes more than one visit to allow our cats to fall in love with you.

Then comes the question if you want to choose them and if you're ready to assume all the responsibility and receive all the love and presence this (these) cat(s) have to offer.

Allow Time to Adjust

Do not expect every cat to be fine with change. They need an adjustment time spanning from a few days to a few weeks, and even to a few months in some cases.

Allow your new adoptees the time they need to adjust and to feel comfortable in their new environment.

Follow Along

Now that you know us, make sure to follow us on social media and to engage on our content, so that your followers may also see it in their feed.
