About Us

My wife Jackie and I have been involved with cat rescue in Arizona since 2005, first with Arizona Animal Rescue and Sanctuary (AZARS) and then in 2009 as founding members of Desert Paws Rescue. As the rescue grew, there were an increasing number of cats and kittens that, for various reasons, were unadoptable. There was an urgent need to provide a place for these unadoptable and special needs cats where they could live their lives in a safe and peaceful environment. In 2014, we started our own 501(c)(-3) non-profit called “Hadley Home for Wayward Cats” with the mission of providing a safe haven or sanctuary for these unwanted cats and kittens.

Providing a forever home for wayward cats comes at a cost that can be counted in thousands of dollars when emergency veterinary visits are suddenly necessary and urgent.

By becoming a recurring donor, you provide the sanctuary a reliable source of income that allows us to plan ahead of time for these cases.

At Hadley Home for Wayward Cats, we are focused on providing a new beginning for unadoptable cats who might otherwise be euthanized.

We provide a safe, loving foster environment for rehabilitation and medical needs and provide them with their forever homes.
