My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Salem is a small, elegant beauty with a stunning all-black coat, but in true diva fashion, she is decorated with a charming white splash on her throat that resembles a pearl necklace. Full grown at about a year old and weighing in at just 6 pounds, this petite princess is the perfect size for cuddles and companionship.

A Heart of Gold: This little lady has already proven her nurturing spirit. Having had a litter of kittens when she was really still a kitten herself, Salem went above and beyond by stepping in to nurse her sister's kittens when their mother couldn’t care for them. Now spayed and healthy, she’s ready to leave her mothering days behind and enjoy every minute of the kittenhood she missed out on.

Salem is a playful and affectionate social butterfly! She’s absolutely unafraid of other cats and, once she warms up to them, she loves to cuddle and play—all while maintaining her own boundaries. She can play and zoom around with her foster brothers or happily just chase and toss small toys across the house on her own. This sweet girl thrives on affection and adores being petted. Whether it’s curling up on your lap for a cozy nap or snuggling with you all night long, Salem is ready to shower you with love.

A Determined Spirit: Originally, Salem was slated to return to her outside home colony after being spayed. But this little lady had other plans! She kept jumping back into her rescuer's truck, asking for more cuddles, clearly expressing that she was destined for an indoor life filled with love and family. Her determination is just one of the many reasons she deserves a place in your heart and home.

Your New Best Friend Awaits! If you’re seeking a charming, friendly, playful, and self-sufficient new family member, look no further than Salem! Come meet this enchanting feline today and see how she can bring joy and warmth into your life. Don’t miss out on the chance to welcome Salem into your family—she’s ready to make memories with you!

More about this rescue

A Winning Team

We are a small group of animal lovers who are working together to help facilitate Trap Neuter Release and medical care for animals in need. We are here to help each other help the animals and to partner with businesses, rescues and groups to make the biggest impact.

Our History

Mia (known as “Murderous Mia”) is a rescue cat who came to her mom as a hospice foster with many medical issues. She has overcome a lot of health concerns and in her journey, met a lot of human pals (many of whom are a little frightened of her angsty 4 pd person). She and her pals decided that they wanted to help animals in need. So a group of her people joined together to help do Trap Neuter Release (TNR) to lessen the population and suffering of animals and help cover costs of care for animals in need (dogs, cats, birds... Mia insists on not being specist). She invites all those who want to find a way to help to join her mafia. Her only rules are: 1. the animals come first 2. everyone supports each other and 3. no drama remain calm. The goal is to have fun while we all work together to make life better for the ones we can help.

Animals Are Our Mission

We focus on keeping things positive and supporting each other so that we can be at our best to do the most good for the animals. We strive to collaborate with others and encourage our team to come up with new and better ideas of ways to help and to run with those ideas.
