Description
Poor Peaches was found wandering around a parking lot, all alone and sick! That must have been very scary for her. I know I would be scared if I was in that situation!
Thank goodness someone found her and we had space open at Good Mews. We nursed her back to health and she is feeling much better. She is also very happy to be safe in a comfy office. Yes, Peaches has her own office! She is such a Diva she said she did not want to share her space with others, so we accommodated her needs and she now lives in her own office. But an office is only so big and I know she would love to have a whole house to herself with lots of windows to look out of. If you would like to share your home with this feisty girl, come by and meet her. Oh, and since Peaches is such a Diva, she will only share her home with humans, no other cats, thank you very much!
Update-The staff has started letting Peaches visit the other kitties in the main shelter during the day and Peaches does great! She has been getting along with everyone so we feel Peaches would do okay going to a home with one other cat. But she still wants to be treated like the queen of the household!
Peaches has taken a temporary job as an office manager at a vet clinic while theirs is on vacation. If you are interested in meeting Peaches, please email our adopt mailbox at (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Description
Peanut and his sister Muffin were rescued by a Good Mews volunteer and ‘adopted’ into Cayley’s family. Peanut is very playful and energetic, and loves to run, jump and climb. He’s still a bit skittish around people, but enjoys being petted and goes crazy over treats. He loves other cats and could spend hours playing with his brothers Pongo and Uno. He might need a bit of extra time to adjust to new situations. He loves any kind of toy, especially feather toys and the dragonfly toy. He loves to climb and would be thrilled to have a cat tree of his own. He would love to be adopted with one of his siblings, or into a household with another young, energetic cat or kitten.

Description
Penguin came to Good Mews after he was seriously injured. We think he was hit by a car. He required many weeks of cage rest because he could not even stand! Once he was feeling better and could walk, he was released into the main shelter. He was happy to be able to finally walk around, but I don’t think he was very thrilled with all of the other cats he had to share his space with! So Penguin likes to keep to himself, lounging in a big cat bed. As a result, he is often over-looked on adoption days. But I know this sweet boy wishes for a loving family. He likes people, but never walks up to them, asking for attention. What he will do is walk towards you and stop a couple feet from you and just sit. That is his way of asking you to come pet him! And once you start petting him, he loves it! I really love Penguin and I hope he finds his forever home soon. He would make a great only cat and he doesn’t ask for much. He would also do fine with one or two other cats.

Description
Rhinna came to Good Mews when she was just a little kitten. She was born under someone’s front porch and she and her siblings went into foster care until they were ready for adoption. She was quickly adopted, but it just didn’t work out with her family, so she was returned to Good Mews. Rhinna was a little upset upon her return, but she is starting to feel better and she is enjoying the company and attention from all the volunteers. She is a very affectionate kitty that loves her chin scratched. She is also a vocal little girl and likes to let you know when she wants your attention. Rhinna is a fun kitty and will keep you entertained with her playful antics. She would love to have her own special home, so please come meet her!

Description
Ron Jon is a very nice guy that will need a special family. Ron Jon was adopted a few years ago, but had to be returned because it wasn’t working out. Ron Jon has a unique personality and will sometimes get upset if he does not get what he wants. The best thing for him would to be in a stable home that has structure and not a lot of change. He really is a nice cat and hopefully someone will want to provide him with a home. He loves people and enjoys playing with them. He also likes to be petted and talked to. I think once in a home where he feels secure, he will be a great companion. He just needs someone willing to give him this home. Ron Jon would do best in a home with no children or other animals.
Please come by and meet him and see if he is the right cat for you!

Description
Rosebud was on her way to being euthanized because her family did not want her anymore. A GM volunteer just happened to be at the clinic where Rosebud was and overheard the whole conversation between the owner and one of the employees at the clinic. Rosebud looked pitiful. She was very underweight, her coat was a dull, matted mess and she knew what was going on. It was just a matter of minutes for her. Our volunteer stepped in and offered to take Rosebud and the owner easily gave her up. So off to a foster home she went where she got the love and attention she needed. Within a few weeks Rosebud started to blossom both physically and mentally. Her personality really started to shine! What a love this kitty is! She is such a talker and a snuggler and loves her toys. She would sit in your lap all day if you let her and will follow you around the house. Rosebud deserves a wonderful home and to be showered with the affection and attention she deserves.
——————————————————————————————
Rosebud is FIV+, but don’t let that scare you! Rosebud is a very gentle girl that wants nothing more than a family to call her own.
FIV+ cats can live long and healthy lives. They can also live safely with FIV-negative cats. FIV is spread through severe bite wounds, so it is important that your kitties get along.
Rosebud would do best in a quiet home. She gets along fine with other cats, so one or two quiet, laid-back kitties would be ideal for her. She would also do great as a single cat, that way she doesn’t have to share a lap with anyone!
To learn more about FIV, please read our two articles under the Advice tab on our home page.
Rosebud is in a foster home. If you are interested in meeting her, please email (JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

Featured Kitty
shadow
Good Mews found out about a situation where someone had over 50 cats living in stacked cages in a dark shed. They had one light bulb for light. Some of these kitties had been living in these conditions for about 3 years. Obviously this is no way for any living being to live. We were able to assist with some of the cats, and a couple other groups were also able to help.
Most of these cats have never been socialized and only knew one person: the person who kept them in the cages. They lived in fear and always wondered what was going to happen to them.
Nina and Shadow are two of these kitties and are very afraid right now. They are going to need a loving, patient adopter so they can learn to trust at their own pace. It may take months, or it could take days. They just need the chance to learn what having a loving home is like. Once they feel safe, I know they will be wonderful companions.
Nina and Shadow are very bonded because they had lived in their cage together. They rely on each other and are required to be adopted together.
