Oreo’s Haven Policies & Commitment to Compassionate Rescue

“Every decision at Oreo’s Haven is guided by compassion, transparency, and an unwavering commitment to the safety and wellbeing of the cats we serve.”

At Oreo’s Haven, every decision we make is guided by one simple promise:
the safety, health, and wellbeing of the cats always come first.

We are deeply grateful for the fosters, adopters, donors, and community members who stand beside us in this mission. To ensure clarity, trust, and the best possible care for every animal, we follow the policies outlined below.

Our Rescue Philosophy

Oreo’s Haven is committed to:

  • Compassionate, ethical rescue practices

  • Responsible medical care guided by licensed veterinarians

  • Honest and transparent communication with our community

  • Placing cats in safe, loving, lifelong homes

  • Treating every person involved in rescue with kindness and respect

All actions taken by Oreo’s Haven are done in good faith and in the best interest of the animals in our care.

Foster Care & Medical Decision-Making

Fosters are an essential and cherished part of our rescue family.
To protect the wellbeing of each cat:

  • All medical care and treatment decisions are made in consultation with Oreo’s Haven and our veterinary partners.

  • Cats in foster care remain under the legal and medical responsibility of Oreo’s Haven until adoption is finalized.

  • Any signs of illness or injury must be reported promptly so appropriate care can be arranged.

These guidelines ensure consistent, safe, and timely medical treatment for every animal.

Adoption & Pre-Adoption Standards

Before adoption, we work carefully to ensure the best possible match for both the cat and the adopter.

Our process may include:

  • Age-appropriate vaccinations and veterinary care

  • Spay or neuter scheduling when medically appropriate

  • Honest discussion of temperament, needs, and history

  • Adoption agreements designed to protect the lifelong welfare of the cat

Our goal is forever homes, not rushed placements.

Privacy, Respect, and Online Conduct

Out of respect for animals, fosters, adopters, and community partners:

  • Oreo’s Haven does not discuss private foster, medical, or adoption situations publicly.

  • We remain committed to kindness and will not engage in public conflict or negative online exchanges.

  • Any concerns are addressed privately, respectfully, and with the wellbeing of the animal as the priority.

We believe compassion should guide not only how we treat animals, but how we treat one another.

Transparency & Accountability

We welcome thoughtful questions from our community and are committed to responsible stewardship of the trust placed in us.

Oreo’s Haven maintains:

  • Veterinary-guided medical care

  • Careful record-keeping for animals in our program

  • Ethical use of donations to directly support rescue, medical care, and adoption efforts

Our work is powered by community support, and we honor that support with integrity and gratitude.

A Shared Mission

Oreo’s Haven exists because of love —
love for the forgotten, the vulnerable, and the cats still waiting for safety.

Together, with compassion leading the way, we continue saving lives
one purr at a time. 🐾
