Animal Sanctuary in Navan
Find out about our work, our animals and all different ways you can help us.
About Us
We create a safe and loving forever home for farmed and domestic animals in need. We foster small domestic animals and find them a family best suited to their needs and personality. We promote a vegan philosophy and encourage people to speak out against the use and abuse of animals in the farming industry. By sharing the stories of our residents with the public, we strive to show people the incredible beauty and individuality of other animals.

Please Consider Supporting Our Rescue – Rehabilitate – Rehome Program for Cats in Need
All funds will go towards helping cats who were abandoned, neglected or born on the streets.
We foster them in our brand new cattery and find loving homes best suited to their needs and personalities.

Food For Thought
It is not an act of kindness to treat animals respectfully. It is an act of justice.
– Tom Regan
Know Your Numbers
Worldwide, more than 70 billion land animals are killed for food every year. We run an outreach program to encourage people to end their part in any use and abuse of animals by refusing to buy and consume animal products.
Our sanctuary relies predominantly on donations from private supporters and our own fundraising efforts to finance our work. We are grateful to the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine for the Animal Welfare Grant of €4000 we received in December 2023, 2024 and 2025.
