Home / Ways to Donate / Bridge the Gap for Pets in Need
Pet Haven continues to open our arms and say yes to as many pets as we can that need us. But it’s getting much more difficult. We need your help to bridge the gap.
Between January and June 2023, Pet Haven’s animal care costs were nearly $221,000, but our adoption fees raised just $104,747.
Our fees do not cover our adoptions.
The average loss per cat is $49.65.
The average loss per dog is $158.34
With animal medical industry’s rising costs, some as much as 70%, we need more support now than ever!
This translates to a $$57,500.00 gap we need to cover to continue caring for Minnesota pets that need our help.
We often hear Pet Haven is the only rescue that stepped up to help a pet owner. Help us keep our arms open by bridging the gap so we can continue saying “YES” to pets and people that need us so desperately.

Pet Haven supports our Minnesota shelters that are closed or overflowing.
Pet Haven provides life-saving options to pet owners that need to surrender their pets.
Many pet owners have NO options to surrender to a local shelter- either the wait list is too long or their city/county doesn’t operate a shelter. Pet Haven has welcomed nearly 100 dogs and cats surrendered by their owners this year.
Pet Haven is investing in a surgery suite at our new facility because veterinary costs are rising.
Veterinarians are increasing their rates and having difficulty finding staff. Pet Haven is building a surgery suite and providing wellness clinics at our new facility in St. Paul for our foster animals. Reducing our vet expenses can bring more animals into our foster care program.
Pet Haven cares for animals in medical crises – the most vulnerable who need our help.
Our foster cats and dogs are often sick or injured, or were previously neglected. Pet Haven is there for them all, providing medical care, safe homes, and a second chance.
