Haven of the Ozarks celebrates new facility
On June 20, the Haven of the Ozarks Animal Sanctuary, located between Exeter and Washburn dedicated their new facility, Angel’s Haven, with a Chamber Ribbon Cutting and Open House. The funding for Angel’s Haven was provided by Patricia Hall of Monett, who named the building after her cherished cat, Angel. Angel’s Haven serves as both a cat housing facility and an adoption center office. The Haven of the Ozarks Animal Sanctuary celebrates 30 years of rescuing abused, abandoned and neglected animals. Cats and dogs receive medical treatment, spaying or neutering, vaccinations, microchipping and loving care before adoption into their forever homes. About 500 pets are adopted from the Haven annually, and the facility cares for over 100 animals daily. Funding comes from donations and adoption fees. The Haven of the Ozarks Animal Sanctuary operates seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. No appointment is necessary for adopters or visitors. The Haven is currently operating at full capacity, and urges all pet owners to spay or neuter their pets. For more information on the Haven, people may visit www.havenoftheozarks.org.
