    went to visit with some kittens a couple weeks ago! They are so nice here-- way nicer than any other shelter I've been to in Baton Rouge (although I wouldn't consider this a "shelter"), they let you walk around to any cage you want and get whatever kitten (but the ones who are already adopted cannot be held), I held William and I loved him! So sad I couldn't adopt him but I'll definitely be back whenever I want kitten cuddles!

    I got a little kitten named Muse for my christmas present and he's absolutely perfect he's the perfect fit. he already knows how to use a liter box, he's chipped and fixed so that's great that i don't have to do that. he has such a great little personality and is a wild child and we both love him so much already. thank you cat haven!

    I love Cat Haven's paw prints all over the parking lot!

    I love coming here for cat therapy! I used to have cats and miss them terribly so this was my second time coming in for cat therapy. Walking towards the building, there's cute purple paw prints all over the parking lot! There was a sweet black cat that was in the shade under a car. That cat is named Buddy so don't forget to give it a pet on the head before heading in! Walking in, you gotta use hand sanitizer as you enter each room with cats in them, as they have plenty of rooms with different cats of all ages and types. Lovely staff that I met and one of them had a deep love for a female Siamese cat. Definitely recommend if you love cats to come by! Maybe not so much if you have a cat allergy! Love coming to Cat Haven, and if you can, you can volunteer there as well!

    Oliver loves to hide and watch me go about my day!

    We love our #CAAWS dog. I have read some reviews here that are negative. I will share my…read moreexperience. We have had our dog for about 5 years now. This dog , who CAAWS actually rescued from a kill shelter, was a shy, slightly reticent dog. Sabra ,who is a school teacher and a volunteer at CAAWS, helped me to choose " Austin" ( their name). During this same time, I was tending to my Mom( she has since passed on ) and was helping my family in Virginia. Keep in mind , CAAWS does have a screening process, and for a very good reason. These animals, at least many, have not had " happy" lives, and some are recovering from abuse or neglect . They want to make sure that you will be a loving and responsible pet owner. I am fortunate that our son helps to take care of our dog if and when we must leave town. Owning a pet is a responsibility, and a healthy dog needs more than food , water and trips to the vet ... they need love , tenderness, regular exercise and to insure that CAAWS dogs are matched to a suitable owner, yes, they are very careful with whom they place these deserving pets. Make room in your home and heart for a life time of unconditional love. I know that there are many people who love dogs as much as I do. Our dog did require some dental work , and because of this, we now are very careful about how we care for his remaining teeth . We have friends who have become volunteers there, and I know that the adoption process may seem " detailed"... but CAAWS loves to see their pets find a fur ever home. I highly recommend going to meet these deserving pets. Adoptions can be arranged to suit your schedule. In our case, we met our dog, filled out the necessary paperwork and had a two week trip. When we came home, we were able to adopt our dog... he is a very lovable canine, and having him in our life also enriched us in many ways. He was with us when we had to be rescued from the August 2016 flood... and has been a joy through the many storms since then. When we needed to move into an apartment in 2016, he was also a joy, and his personality is friendly and thankfully, he isn't into barking unnecessarily. I highly recommend CAAWS, their caring volunteers, their fees are kept low... and all of their animals ( dogs, cats) love being adopted. Sabra, and other volunteers, do a great job. We love " Chase", who used to be " Austin"... thank you to all #CAAWSvolunteers #CAAWS has a Facebook page... thank you!

    Very disappointing, insulting, judgmental experience…read more I don't doubt they take good care of their animals. They simply wasted my family's time and truly disappointed my children.

    Magic Happens isn't a traditional shelter or pet store operation. This is a breed-specific rescue…read morethat focuses on all the cutest little wabbits! (And a few other small friends like guinea pigs!) Run by a woman named Wendy, the bunnies of Magic Happens are pampered and primped in foster homes all over the southern Louisiana area. When a prospective adopter pages through the Petfinder.com listings to find their perfect little bun, Wendy is quick to invite them out to meet their prospective pet. Most email communication occurs in the evenings because Magic Happens isn't Wendy's primary job, but she treats all the bunnies (and other small things) like they are her #1 priority. A word, if I may, about bunnies as pets: Rabbits are quirky, intelligent animals that need more than a small hutch in the backyard. They're smart enough to litter train, and they're long-lived enough to rival cats. In fact, rabbits are a lot like cats in terms of intelligence, interest in their surroundings, and life-span. Rabbits aren't "just a few years" pets, and neither are cats. Both are worthwhile investments, and both animals can add so much to the family. Want the cutest wake-up ever? Bunny. Sitting on your chest. Back to the review... Our family needed one more guinea pig to be complete, and Wendy was patient as we chatted about personalities and care histories. (Hot tip: guinea pigs are herd animals! Get your pig a same-sex or neutered friend.) We emailed for three weeks, and twice rides were arranged between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. (One of the pigs was mis-sexed and not a girl, as promised. Hot tip: NEVER TRUST THE PET STORE EMPLOYEE. VERIFY THE SEX OF YOUR ANIMAL.) Wendy and all the folks at Magic Happens are committed to making sure the animal that comes into your life is a forever pet, perfectly matched to your family and your needs. One of the biggest perks of adopting from a rescue is that the animal is already known, and Magic Happens is no exception. Want a snuggler? Yep. Or a loner? Yep. Exactly.

    Wonderful and caring rescue. With so many people breeding rabbits around Baton Rouge, MHRR have…read moretheir hands full and does a great job!
