Ingrid's Haven is a non-profit cat shelter in Victoria, an hour's drive from Melbourne. Come and meet the many rescue cats and kittens available for adoption - all from death row at the pound, rescued and cared for by Ingrid until forever homes can be found.

Ingrid does not accept surrenders from individuals, (see the About page). 

 

Ingrid's Haven is a no-kill shelter.

Thanks to the wonderful folks at Goodwill Wines, at least $20 from every case of high-quality Australian wine bought from them goes directly to the care of the cats at the Haven.

Bags with cat design

Ingrid's Haven online boutique is run by Ingrid's volunteers (affectionately known as the vollies) and all the items have been handcrafted by the vollies of Ingrid's Haven and its supporters. ​Every cent of your purchase will go to help save the life of an abandoned cat or kitten.

DEDICATION

This website is dedicated to all the wonderful people who understand how important it is to adopt a rescue pet ... and to the memory of all the animals that didn’t make it out of the pound.
