Description

Abner and Ella are two very sweet cats but very shy right now because they don’t understand what is happening to them. They have been through so much lately so right now they are a bit scared.
Abner and Ella’s loving guardian had a stroke and had to go into an assisted living. They were very bonded with her and she loved her kitties very much. The family took the cats in, but they have dogs and Abner and Ella are very afraid of dogs, so they stayed hidden in the closet! The daughter contacted Good Mews and asked if we could help. We couldn’t stand to think of poor Abner and Ella living in a closet, in fear, so we agreed to take them in. So it is understandable why these babies are so scared right now. They lost their loving home and have been bounced around from one scary place to another! They are probably wondering what will happen next! Well, we are hoping a new loving home will happen next.
Abner and Ella will appear very shy when you meet them, but they enjoy it when you pet them. I strongly feel once they go to their new forever home and start to feel safe and loved again, they will come out of their shell and be very loving kitties. They just need a chance. Please come meet this pair soon.
A home with no dogs would be best for them.
Both are front declawed.

Description

AC and Nyla were dumped at a local vet’s office with their three siblings when they were only a few weeks old! Their siblings were adopted, but nobody ever picked AC and Nyla. I don’t understand why, these two girls have a lot going for them! They are super sweet, gorgeous, and a lot of fun! Who wouldn’t want them as part of their family?
They lived at the vet’s office for a very long time and Good Mews decided to bring them to the shelter in hopes of finding them a home. I don’t think we will have a problem. They are very affectionate and love people. They also love to play and their favorite toys are balls and feathers. They also love their food! Since they have been together their whole life and are very bonded, they are seeking a home together.
Come meet this darling pair soon. I know you will fall in love with them!

Description

I am a frisky young fella with a shiny, soft black coat who will follow you around wherever you go!  I love attention from the Good Mews volunteers, and often get up on a cat tree where they can notice me and pet me! Of course, I reward them with lots of purring. I’ve been at Good Mews for over 3 years, and so I am ready to find my forever home. But have you ever noticed how many black cats are at Good Mews, or any other shelter? Sometimes people don’t want to adopt us because they are superstitious or because a calico might seem prettier. But I promise not to bring you bad luck if I cross your path! And I really am a very beautiful boy, with a rich shiny coat. I would love to go home with one of my brothers (Ricky or Sergio), but it’s not required. Please come meet my brothers and me!

Description

Bathish was returned to Good Mews when her owner was diagnosed with cancer for the second time. It was very hard for her to make this decision, but she could no longer care for Bathish and give her the time she needed. She felt Bathish deserved to find a new loving family.

Bathish is a very sweet girl that loves people and loves to play with toys. She has never met a stranger. One of her favorite things to do is to sit by the window and watch birds. We promised her it won’t be long before she will have a new window to look out of again.

Bathish is deaf as a result from anesthesia when she was getting her teeth cleaned. But that does not slow this girl down! Most cats ignore us anyway, right? So come meet this darling girl soon and make her part of your family!

Description

Belinda and Provolone make the perfect couple. Yes, she is a bit older than him, but there is nothing wrong with being in love with a younger man, or an older woman!
How did these two love-birds meet? I will tell you:
Belinda was adopted from the shelter when she was a kitten. A few years later, she was returned to Good Mews. She was so depressed she had to be force-fed.  She did not understand why she lost her home, so she did not want to go on living. But we were not going to let her die! So we fed her by hand, and gave her tons of love and told her not to worry, life would get better!
Provolone also came to the shelter as a kitten. He was the shyest kitten in his litter. He watched all his siblings go to forever homes, but nobody ever picked him. Before he knew it he was removed from the kitten room and placed in the shelter with the big kitties. So he made the best of it and tried to make friends. Then one day he saw a sad kitty sitting all alone. He went to comfort her and soon Belinda was back to her happy self. She found someone to love.
These 2 are always found together, snuggling. Lots of times we will see Provolone lying right on top of Belinda, I don’t know how she breaths. But she is not bothered by it.
Both are a little shy, but still love people. Once you start to pet Belinda she begins to purr…and she has the loudest purr!!  Provolone is a very sweet boy and is starting to enjoy people petting him and showering him with affection. He feels more comfortable when he is with Belinda and will allow you to hug and kiss him, as long as she is around. They are seeking a quiet home together. If you are looking for 2 extremely bonded cats, please come meet this couple!

Description

Big Boy came to Good Mews when his guardian had to enter a nursing home. This was very confusing for Big Boy because he had such a loving home for so long! But we are glad that Big Boy was able to come to Good Mews and we promised him we would find him a new loving home.
Big Boy is a senior, but you wouldn’t know it! I often see him playing and wrestling with some of our younger kitties! This beautiful boy loves people and would make a wonderful companion.
He would do well in a home with other cats, but he would also be happy as an only cat, as long as you promise to play with him!

MVP

Party Animal

Leader of the Band

MVP
I'm a savvy cat who knows the score. I'm pretty unflappable, too. I don't mind entertaining myself, but a human companion at the other end of the couch and a nice scratch behind the ears always make my day. If you're looking for a resourceful addition to your team, think about signing this Most Valuable Pussycat.

Party Animal
I'm a cat on a mission: PARTY! I love to play and explore and test my limits. I'd love to play with you, but I can make a toy out of anything: pencils, post-it notes, potatoes. If you're looking for some laughs and someone to liven up the party, think about inviting me.

Leader of the Band
I'm a cat who does everything in a big way. I not only like to be in the middle of things--I like to lead the parade. I'm an adventurous cat, but I'll still make plenty of time to show you my affectionate side. I'm the demonstrative type, you might say. Want a cat who's brimming with confidence? That's me.

The Executive
I have to say, I'm a busy cat. First, I've got to check out what's happening out the window. Next, I'll see if any closets or cupboards need looking into. And then there are my naps--can't be late for those. I can fit a little socializing into my schedule. Shall we plan on breakfast and dinner? I hope you like kibbles.

Sidekick
Like all sidekicks, I'm just plain good company. I like attention, and I also like my solitude. I don't go looking for trouble, but I'm no scaredy-cat, either. If you are looking for a steady companion to travel with you on the road of life, look no further.

Personal Assistant
You're working on the computer? Let me press the keys. Reading the paper? I'll hold the pages down for you. Watching TV? I'll just plop in your lap so you can pet me. I love an orderly household, don't you? I'll help you with all your chores, and I'll help you relax when we're done. You'll wonder how you ever managed without me.

Private Investigator

Secret Admirer

Love Bug

Private Investigator
I'm working undercover to keep an eye on you and your household. You may not even know you're under surveillance. I can vanish into thin air if anyone or anything interferes with my investigation. If you need a cat who knows how to stay out of trouble and will always keep your secrets, I just might take your case.

Secret Admirer
When it comes to relationships, I'm very level-headed. I don't leap in paws first, if you know what I mean. But give me a little time, and then I'll shower you with purrs, head-butts, and plenty of lap time. In the meantime, you may not see a lot of me, but I'll be thinking a lot of you!

Love Bug
Do you seek affection? I do! If you also like petting, purrs, and paws kneading your lap, I think we might have a LOT in common. I'm looking for "someone who enjoys quiet times and togetherness." Could that someone be you?

Fluffy

Good_Mews

My name is Fluffy and my story started out a bit sad but now has really turned around. See, my family moved and left me behind in the garage with just a bowl of food and water. Luckily for me, a neighbor rescued me after hearing me in the garage and Good Mews was able to take me.
I lived at Good Mews for awhile but I did not do well with so many other cats..I wanted all the attention! So I moved to the Cat Clinic of North Georgia and am now the office cat! But I would still love to have my own special home. Come by and see me soon!
