The Sanctuary at Haafsville is a safe haven for homeless cats and dogs.  

This week, Lyric deserves special recognition for her progress. Lyric came to the shelter almost a year ago with other cats from the same home. Her parents are no longer around. Initially, Lyric was not sure what to make of the shelter and the other cats around her. She would hide away in a corner or sit out of reach on a high catwalk. It was as if she was trying to be invisible. Occasionally, Lyric would attempt to seek attention but got scared away by the cats with stronger personalities. Most of those cats found homes and Lyric is feeling more comfortable socially. Lyric is now becoming more visible. It’s nice to see her mingling with the other cats, getting a snack, chasing a ball and approaching people for petting during busy volunteer shifts. Lyric’s facial expression has relaxed and she’s holding her head and tail high. She is getting closer to her adoption day for sure. Lyric will thrive in a quiet, low activity home with reassuring adopters. Lyric is around 5 years old, spayed, vaccinated, negative for FIV/FeLV, litter box trained and microchipped
