Description

Meryl and some of her 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.

Meryl is a very beautiful girl with striking green eyes. She is very friendly and playful and loves attention. She would make a wonderful companion. She hasn’t let all the changes in her life get her down and she is ready to get on with her life and join a nice family. Once we learn more about Meryl we will give updates!

Description

What is Mickel’s favorite thing in the world? Kittens!! Mickel would make the perfect foster brother. If you have kittens and are overwhelmed, then Mickel is the man to help you out! He is often found sitting outside the kitten room, playing footsies under the door with all the babies. I bet he could sit there for hours!
OK, so maybe it will be hard to find him a home where he can play foster brother, but I am sure he would be happy just having a home! Mickel is often over-looked because of his shyness. But like all shy cats, if given loads of attention, he will surely come around. If you would like to have this beautiful boy in your life and are willing to give him time, please come meet him soon. And if you are also looking to adopt a kitten or two, that would thrill him to death!


I am a member of the kitty keeper program so even if you cannot adopt, you can sponsor me!

Molly and Maisey are two wonderful, darling girls that came to the shelter as kittens. They were adopted, but returned a few months later because one of the family members was allergic to them! Now these sweet girls are looking for a new home. They are both very playful and love their toys! Molly is a little more outgoing and loves to greet visitors and I don’t think she has ever met a stranger. Maisey is a bit on the shyer side, but will quickly come around once she gets to know you. Both are very affectionate and love people and they would make a wonderful addition to most families. Please come meet these sisters soon. They can’t wait to find their forever home!
Molly and Maisey are seeking a home together.

Color
Orange tabby

Gender

Date of Birth
Jan. 2004

Description

It’s hard to find a cat who likes being petted and loved on more than Morris!  He’ll show you with his purrs and by pushing on your hand and curling against your arm as you pet him.  Morris was rescued from a hoarding situation, where someone took in a lot more cats than they were capable of caring for, so they were unable to treat a condition he has where his eyelashes grow inward. This caused his corneas to be scarred and his eyes to have a foggy appearance. However, he does have some sight because you’ll find him chasing toys and tossing them up in the air! He finds his way around the shelter, and will voluntarily jump into your lap! Good Mews funded his surgery to correct the condition, and now he gets daily eye drops.  In spite of all this, Morris has a wonderful attitude and is very happy.  He loves people and would make a faithful companion. If you are looking for someone that will love you unconditionally, then Morris is your guy!

Description

Ms. Kat is a darling girl that is very lucky to now be at Good Mews! She showed up at a nice lady’s house a couple of years ago with a broken leg. The lady was unable to touch her, but felt so sad for Ms. Kat, she fed her and Ms. Kat stayed around. Eventually the leg started to heal on its own, but Ms. Kat was never able to run on it. Ms. Kat started to come around and let the lady finally touch her and Ms. Kat became a very affectionate, playful kitty. But unfortunately, her caretaker was unable to bring Ms. Kat inside the home. Because of coyote sightings in the area, the lady started to worry about Ms. Kat’s safety and her inability to run because of her leg, so she contacted Good Mews to see if we had space available. We couldn’t stand to think of poor Ms. Kat being attacked by a coyote so we said to bring Ms. Kat right over! We are going to get Ms. Kat’s leg all fixed up and find her a wonderful home where she will not have to worry about living outside again. Come meet this sweetie soon. She is a very sweet girl that wants nothing more than a home to call her own.

Poor Neil..if he was afraid of people, I sure wouldn’t blame him. But as it turns out, Neil loves people! Someone was very mean to him and hit him over the head with a baseball bat, resulting in him being deaf and having a partial head tilt. We can’t believe someone would do that to him, but Neil has decided to just forgive and get on with his life.
He is a very sweet boy that loves to sit and chat with you. He is a big talker! He also has a best friend named Max that he really depends on. These 2 boys are looking for a home together where they will be safe and loved.

Description

Billie Holiday and Nina Simone are two beautiful cats that can’t wait to find their new home.
Billie and Nina were abandoned years ago at the Fernbank. An employee was able to provide them with a loving home for several years, but she fell on hard times and recently lost her home. She contacted her friends at the Fernbank and asked if they were able to help. We were contacted and since we had room, we said we would be happy to help find these ladies a new home!

Nina is still a little unsure of her situation and does not understand why she lost her home. Right now she is very afraid. She has her own special room so volunteers can spend time with her so she can start trusting people. Nina is a beautiful girl, and I know in time she will come around. She deserves to have a home of her own again and I know all of our wonderful volunteers will work hard to help her and will not give up until this sweet girl learns to love people again!

Check back for updates on Nina’s progress!

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?

Sampson

Good_Mews

Sampson was rescued from a hoarding situation, where he had to compete for human attention.  He has adjusted well to his temporary home at Good Mews, and can be seen out front spending time with people or the other cats. He does love attention!
Sampson is a beautiful orange kitty with a big bushy tail and exotic-looking stripes! He is very playful and could be amused with a feather toy or laser pointer for hours! He is such a fun cat.  Sampson also loves other cats so he is seeking a home where he can have some pals to play with.
Sampson does tend to get nervous in new environments and it may take him a little time to adjust in a new home, but once he does, he is an awesome cat!
