Finding good homes for good kitties…
Camp O.P.P.
Good Mews had a wonderful opportunity to participate this summer with Our Pal’s Place, Camp O.P.P.
Each week in July we spent the day with a different group of kids ranging in age from 5th grade to 8th grade.
Fun was had by all as well as a great chance to educate the kids on cat behavior, the importance of spay/neuter, cat care and what it takes to run Good Mews!

Meet Your Match
Good Mews is very excited to announce we will be the first shelter in Georgia to roll out the ASPCA®’s Meet Your Match Feline-ality™ Program. We plan to have it up and running by late summer!
Meet your Match for felines was introduced by the ASPCA® in 2007. The launch of Feline-ality™ in 2007 is the latest addition to the ASPCA®’s Meet Your Match™ constellation of adoption programs that include research-based animal behavior assessments—all aimed at increasing adoption rates, and reducing return rates at shelters, thus combating the problem of pet overpopulation in shelters today.
According to the ASPCA®, “the key to developing successful adoptions lies in making good matches between adopters and pets, thus creating lasting bonds,” said Dr. Emily Weiss, the ASPCA’s senior director of shelter behavior programs, and researcher of ASPCA®’s Meet Your Match™. “Feline-ality™ is a tool that does precisely this; and everyone—adopters, shelter staff, and most of all, the cats—benefits from the program.”
Meet Your Match™ is a program of ASPCA®.
