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
Evan and some of his friends came to Good Mews from a shelter in Alabama. That shelter was shut down and some of their former volunteers contacted us and asked if we would be willing to take in some of their cats. They had 80 cats to place and were struggling to find placement or homes for all of them. We feel it is important that all rescues need to work together so we were more than happy to help them. We went to pick up the kitties and they did very well on their long trip back to Good Mews. Now we have promised all of them that we will find them a wonderful new home to call their own.
Evan hasn’t let all the changes in his life get him down! He is a very personable young man that is looking forward to meeting new people and kitty friends. He loves attention and he is quite the character! He loves pets and belly rubs and loves to play. He would make a wonderful addition to most families! We will give more updates on Evan once we learn more about him!

Felice is a very charming girl that loves people and a nice lap to sit on. So if you are looking for a lap cat, then Felice is your girl! Poor Felice was returned to Good Mews at no fault of her own. She does not understand why she lost her home, and is now living with so many cats! But a beautiful girl like her, I don’t think she will be here long. I bet she would love to sit with you after a long day of work and watch you read or listen to how your day went. As long as she knows she is in her forever home and will be loved for the rest of her life!
Felice would do great as an only cat and she also gets along with dogs

Description
Fiaca and Noelle are two beautiful petite girls that were abandoned along with their siblings. All of their siblings have since been adopted, but Fiaca and Noelle are over-looked on adoption days because they are very shy. Since they were abandoned, we do not know their history, but my guess is something scary must have happened to them. We are hoping one day they will learn to trust us, but it is going to take a lot of time and patience.
These sweet girls are extremely bonded and are often found curled up in a bed together. It is rare to see one without the other. So we would never dream of separating them.
There are times when an adopter comes through our door looking for a “hard to adopt” cat because they want to give a cat a home that does not have the same chance as the more adoptable cats. Right now we feel that is the type of person that will have to adopt Fiaca and Noelle, because they are so shy.
We always hear back from these adopters and the stories they tell us about these “hard to adopt” cats are wonderful! Whether these cats come around in 1 month or 1 year, they do come around! And I truly believe Fiaca and Noelle are no exception, if given the chance. They have already made great progress since coming to the shelter, and I know once in a quiet home, with the right family, they will blossom to be lovely girls!
**Update** Fiaca and Noelle are in a special room so volunteers can work with them and show them that people aren’t so bad! And it is working. They enjoy us petting them and we brush them and they purr and purr and Noelle even leaned towards me and gave me a kiss. So I know once in a quiet home, these girls will come around and be wonderful companions. They just need a chance.

Description
Fiona is an adorable girl that really needs a good home where she will be spoiled rotten! And if any cat deserves that, she does!
Fiona was rescued from a hoarder in 2007 who had more cats than she could care for. All of these cats were greatly neglected and required extensive medical care. Most of the cats we rescued from this situation have been adopted, but Fiona is still waiting patiently for her forever home.
She was adopted once, but it was short-lived. And this really made us sad because Fiona was so excited to go to her new home. She got a new hair-cut before she was to be picked up and we could tell Fiona felt beautiful and was ready to start her new life. However, her new person did not want to put ear drops in Fiona’s ears, so she was returned to the shelter! Ear drops are not a big deal, especially when you are rewarded with such a sweet girl.
So now Fiona is waiting patiently again for a new forever home. Please come meet this special kitty soon. She really is a loving girl. She is seeking a home with a lot of windows so she can watch the birds, a comfy bed to sleep in, someone to brush her regularly, a cat video to watch, some yummy canned food (it’s her favorite!), and some kitty pals to hang out with. That isn’t too much to ask, is it?

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!

Description
Gypsy and Cinder were abandoned and Good Mews was able to take them in. As it turned out, Gypsy and Cinder did not like humans at all!!! And I don’t mean they just hissed at us and told us to go away. We could not even touch them, much less look at them! But we were not about to give up on these beautiful cats. They were worthy of a loving home, and we were going to provide that for them, no matter how long it took. So we called in a troop of experts and they dedicated their time working with them. It took awhile, but Gypsy and Cinder finally decided we weren’t so bad. They were moved to their own special room for a couple months so more volunteers could socialize with them and all the hard work paid off. These cats love people and love attention! Now they are seen out in the main shelter, playing with the other cats and seeking attention from the volunteers and visitors on adoption days.
As you can see, Gypsy is a very handsome boy and he also has a wonderful personality. He would do best in a home with another cat or two to play with. We would prefer that he does not go home to a family with dogs.
Cinder is a beautiful girl with golden eyes who is very loving and sweet. She is a bit shyer than Gypsy, so a quiet home would be best for her without any young children or dogs. She would need to go to a home with other cat friends.
Come meet these amazing cats soon!

Bud
Bud and his sister Taylor came to Good Mews when their family lost their home. Bud is one of the most beautiful cats you will ever see. He is a little shy right now, but will easily come around when he knows he has a loving family again. I guess if I lost the only home I had ever known, I would be a little wary too! He gets along great with other cats and is seeking a home with a family that loves him and some kitty friends to pal around with! Will you be the one to brighten Bud’s day?
