Description
Bode 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.
Bode is a very pretty young lady but she is still unsure of her situation. We always wish cats could talk so we can understand what has happened to them and why they are so upset. But I know in time, once Bode becomes more comfortable, she will relax, and start to understand nothing bad will ever happen to her again. And we promised her we will find her a loving home where she will be showered with affection! She sure deserves that. Once we learn more about Bode, we will give updates!

Description
Bongo is a sweet, shy girl who we all wish could find a home to call her own. You see, Bongo does not know what a “home” is. “Home” to Bongo is the shelter. She came to Good Mews as a kitten in 2003 and has never been adopted. The only family she has ever known is the staff and volunteers at Good Mews. We all love her dearly, but our only wish is for her is to have her own family to love her. She deserves to have her own windows to look out of and watch the birds, a big bed to jump up in at night so she can cuddle with her special person, and someone to look her in the eyes at the end of the day and say “I love you”.
Because Bongo is so special, her family is going to have to be special. They are going to have to accept Bongo for who she is. She will take a while to adjust to her new home but with a lot of patience and understanding, I know Bongo will flourish!

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?

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!

Description
When Creighton and Liberty were kittens, they were found by 2 young boys in a wall of a deserted building. They asked Good Mews if we could take them in, and we found room for them. The mother and boys came to visit Creighton and Liberty often and were very much in love with them. They eventually ended up adopting them.
They lived with their loving family for 3 years, then because of the economy, hard times fell on them and they made the difficult decision to return the 2 cats. This absolutely broke their hearts but they wanted the best for the kitties, which is a new home where they can be taken care of.
Of course, Creighton and Liberty are very confused as to why they are back at Good Mews. We explained to them that they did nothing wrong, and that their family loved them so much, they made the decision to let them go to a place that will take care of them until they find their forever home. Hopefully they will one day understand.
Creighton and Liberty are very bonded and must be adopted together.. Creighton is more outgoing than Liberty , and she is very protective over her brother. Both are very sweet, affectionate cats that are longing for a new home to call their own. If you are looking for two loving cats to join your family, please come meet these two beauties.

Description
Drifter is a beautiful white cat with yellow eyes. And not only is he beautiful, he is very sweet! Drifter was found wandering around a volunteer’s apartment complex and the volunteer couldn’t stand seeing this beautiful boy living outside in the cold, so he brought him inside. The volunteer posted signs everywhere, but nobody stepped up to claim poor Drifter! It is apparent he had a home at some point, because he looked well taken care of, but I guess nobody was looking for him. After a couple of months of looking for Drifter’s family, the search was called off and Drifter came to Good Mews to find a new family.
Drifter is a little confused as to what is going on. He lives with a family, he is wandering around outside in the cold, he is living with another family, and now he is at the shelter! That is a lot for this young boy to digest in such a short period of time! So now we are on a mission to find Drifter a permanent home to call his own! He is a very sweet boy that loves to be petted, and to get your attention he will give head-butts. He loves snuggling down in his cat bed, so he will require a cozy bed in his new home! Please come meet Drifter soon!
Update-Drifter is one of the sweetest boys you will ever meet!! And not only is he super sweet, he is absolutely gorgeous! He loves to be held and will snuggle up into you. If you sit on the floor, he loves to lie in your lap. This boy wants nothing but love and affection. Anyone would be lucky to have him as part of their family. What an awesome cat he is!!
