February is Cat Appreciation Month!
February is Cat Appreciation Month, so be sure to give your kitty extra attention and toys this month! Of course, we know that in cat households, it’s ALWAYS Cat Appreciation month!
Also consider celebrating this special month by adopting a new cat (or two with our February special!). All of our kitties would really appreciate a new home!
If you are unable to adopt, how about joining our Kitty Keeper program by sponsoring one of our shelter residents? For more information about being a Kitty Keeper, click here

Grant from the Doris Day Animal Foundation!
Good Mews Animal Foundation is proud to announce the award of a $5,000 grant from the Doris Day Animal Foundation. This grant is specifically targeted toward our Golden Companions program, and provides the funding to waive the fees for our senior cats that are adopted by senior citizens. In addition, this grant also assists with the funding of the HALO costs relating to our senior cats in the HALO program. The Doris Day Animal Foundation strongly supports the benefits of the companionship that senior cats can provide to senior citizens, a position also strongly supported by Good Mews.
So if you are a senior citizen, age 65 or older, all adoption fees are waived if you adopt one of our special feline senior citizens. They will bring you many years of comfort and love. Or if you know a special senior, maybe a grandparent or other older relative or friend, consider bringing them in to meet our older kitties. Our Golden Companion kitties would like nothing more than a Home for the Holidays! Please meet our Golden Companions under the Adopt tab, Golden Companions. And a very special thank you to the Doris Day Animal Foundation for their support of this program.

Featured Kitty
Saphra
Saphra is a super sweet girl that sadly lost her home when her guardian had to move in with someone with a disability so she could care for her. The person with the disability is allergic to cats so Saphara couldn’t come along. Saphra was adopted from Good Mews when she was a kitten so she is a little confused as to why she is back at the shelter. It is always hard on the cats that come from loving homes because they probably think they did something wrong and they don’t understand why they were in their home one day and in a cat shelter the next. So we try to give them a ton of attention so they feel better and hope that a new loving home comes along soon.
Saphra is a beautiful gray cat that is very loving. She will be shy in a new environment, but once she gets to know you, she will be a loyal companion. She will probably also be shy around strangers once in a new home, but a lot of cats are like that!
When I first went to visit with Saphra she was sitting in her tent bed. She kept popping her head up and down like a jack-in-the-box. When I started petting her she instantly started purring and rolling around. After awhile she started standing on her head! She really is a funny little girl. So if you are looking for a sweet, quiet kitty to join your family, then come and meet Saphra.
