Animal Haven
9800 W. 67th St.
Merriam, KS 66203
The Vision - A lifelong, caring home for every pet
Mission
To provide a higher quality of life for homeless pets through adoption, education and collaboration with our animal welfare community.
Our Philosophy
Founded in 1966 by Nadine Smith, Animal Haven now provides shelter for the stray animals of Merriam, Lenexa, Overland Park, Lake Quivira & the Johnson County Parks Department. Animal Haven accepts pets directly from individuals in need of assistance anytime space is available.
Operating with a progressive low-kill philosophy, Animal Haven is determined to help as many pets as possible find the loving homes they deserve, while working to ensure that animals in our care are both behaviorally and physically healthy. All animals who can be safely handled and who are not suffering from terminal illness remain in our care until a responsible, caring and committed home is made available through adoption. Adoptive homes are carefully screened to guarantee that pets are welcomed as family companions, and hopefully remain in their new homes for life. We promote our low-kill philosophy in the community by opening our doors frequently to accept animals from other area shelters to save them euthanasia.
In 2005, Animal Haven accepted 2,658 stray, unwanted, orphaned, abandoned and rescued companion animals. Of the many pets received, 282 were humanely put to sleep due to illness or aggression, 652 were happily reunited with their original families, and 1,650 were adopted into great new homes.
