After a weeks-long closure, Safe Haven — Peninsula Friends of Animals’s no-kill shelter between Sequim and Port Angeles — has resumed cat and kitten adoptions by appointment and is operating its pet food pantry, executive director Danette Grady said.

The nonprofit organization has adopted about 20 cats in the past month, Grady said.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of its April Catnip and Sip fashion show-auction-tea. Also shut down are a number of peninsula summer festivals at which PFOA’s potholder team would sell thousands of kitchen hot pads as a fundraiser.

Instead, the team members turned to sewing machines to make masks, first for Clallam County Emergency Management and then for the general public. For $20, the donor would get a mask and a second would go to someone in need; masks may be ordered by calling 360-452-0414 or sending an email to execdir.pfoa@gmail.com.

PFOA board member Marilyn Ash said the mask-making program has raised more than $3,000 and that PFOA is still receiving requests for masks.

In all, PFOA’s nine-person team made 1,007 masks and 20 gowns to Clallam County Emergency Management — with 16 masks donated directly to a medical clinic — along with 277 for the shelter.

In addition, PFOA’s low-cost spay/neuter program, hosts clinics on the third Wednesday of each month, with openings on June 17, July 15 and Aug. 19.
