Story
Finley was saved from living a life outside of an art studio in a neighborhood of Cleveland considered an art district. She had people caring for her, but did not have a home of her own. Luckily, we were able to take her in and give her the works a.k.a. spayed and wellness care. She was a little shy at first, but definitely receptive of human attention. She is very receptive to attention but does become reserved in new situations. We can’t wait for you to meet her! We know that you’re just going to fall in love! By the way, the way to her heart is definitely through a can of wet food 🙂 Get preapproved before you meet them! https://form.jotform.com/202214857624050

Story
Bonnie came to us a couple years ago and just kind of had a slow journey with a couple different fosters. She’s been pretty friendly for a while, however, she was in a situation at first, where she kind of stayed off in the distance in a room with some other cats that weren’t quite as friendly. We transferred her last fall to a foster home where she could learn to be a kitty cat. She is doing fabulous and is the perfect coworker; we her!🙂 Bonnie has been to a couple vets as well because she had a limp. Her leg had previously dislocated and fused to her body wall. A surgeon at the VCA said to leave it alone and as long as she was walking, it would be fine, that if we did any type of surgery, it would likely cause some discomfort and arthritis down the road. We think her swagger (limp) is kind of adorable. It’s very slight. Would you like to have a coworker like her in your life? Great! Fill out this form and we can set up a meet and greet https://form.jotform.com/202214857624050

Blossom (and her brother Khullar) came in as strays by the botanical gardens in Cleveland. They were being fed by a gentleman that worked at the Cleveland Clinic while he was in town. The neighborhood was not safe and he knew they needed help. Blossom is a very friendly gal that really gets along with other cats. She is a good girl that just wants lots of love!

Story
Damsel came to us ready to give birth to her kittens. She was living outside in a dangerous situation. She gave birth a few days later. She was very shy and terrified. A very good mama. Would let us care for her kittens, but was afraid to let us touch her. With lots of time and patience, now she begs for attention. Damsel would do best in a home without children. She still startles easily and can be reactive. She will need time to decompress and adjust. Her purrr is so loud. She jumps for pets. Shows us her little tongue when comfortable. A biscuit making professional. Ready to live life outside her playpen. Apply https://form.jotform.com/202214857624050

Beautiful bonded brothers need a loving homeTo start our adoption process, House of Mews Rescue asks that you please complete our online no-obligation adoption application, which is located on our website under the adopt tab at http://www.houseofmewsrescue.org/adopt.html Should our Adoption Coordinator feel your application is a good fit, a HOM volunteer will reach out to discuss your application with you. Current on vaccinations, and have tested negative for both FIV ('Feline Immunodeficiency Virus') and FeLV (Feline Leukemia). Donovan and Captain are bonded brothers who need a loving home that will allow them to be together forever.  You see, both these boys are a bit shy at first.  They will need someone who can give them time to adjust to their new home and environment.  They have come along way in foster care.  Donovan sleeps with his foster mom and curls up on the couch next to her, he did not do any of that when he was first rescued.  Captain is so sweet but he is just timid.  He will get some pets and loving from his foster mom but it is on his terms.    Captain and Donovan are always playing together, sleeping together, basically they do most things together.  They are so much fun to watch and provide hours of entertainment.  As stated above, they will need time to adjust to their new home but once they are comfortable, what a great feeling it will be to know you gave these boys a chance they deserve so much.     Approx. birth date: 4/1/21 Foster: MG  October 23, 2024, 1:04 pm

Joy is a confident happy kittyTo start our adoption process, House of Mews Rescue asks that you please complete our online no-obligation adoption application, which is located on our website under the adopt tab at http://www.houseofmewsrescue.org/adopt.html Should our Adoption Coordinator feel your application is a good fit, a HOM volunteer will reach out to discuss your application with you.  Current on vaccinations, and have tested negative for both FIV ('Feline Immunodeficiency Virus') and FeLV (Feline Leukemia). Joy has been in foster care her whole life. Joy is sweet and loving and will seek out attention and ask to be pet.  But it is a bit of a process with her. Joy had a tough start so initially she has a bit of fear to overcome.  Shy and fearful cats are overlooked all to often in rescue.  If someone would give Joy a chance, you will see the wonderful cat she has blossomed into. Joy is ready to find a family that will give her a bit of time to adjust to her new surroundings and who can offer her companionship that will help to boost her confidence.   Approx. birth date: 9/9/2022 Foster:  MGOctober 23, 2024, 1:04 pm

Christmas is a beautiful gray and white kitten born into Viva Los Gatos Cat Rescue on Christmas Eve 2022.  She has lovely copper eyes, and a white chest and belly.  Christmas is a very active little girl that loves being with her siblings.  She is the most verbal of her brothers and sisters, and she loves to snuggle with them.   Christmas is not a lap cat, but she is a wonderful companion cat and loves to lay next to her favorite human.  She prefers if you just give her head pets and play with her.  Throw a ball or a stuffed mouse, and she will capture it!   Christmas is a little more aloof than her siblings, and more verbal, and would do well with a companion kitty such as one of her siblings.  Come meet this friendly little girl and see if she is a good fit for you and your family!   Interested in adopting Christmas or one of our other wonderful kitties? Please visit www.VivaLosGatosCatRescue.org and complete our no-obligation, online adoption application from any PC or mobile device. Viva Los Gatos is based in Cleveland, Ohio, and adopts to residents of Northeast Ohio. Adoptions to residents outside this area are considered on a case-by-case basis.

Hi I’m Simon. My brother Garfunkel was adopted but I’m still waiting for my forever home. If you are looking for a playful and energetic furry friend, I’m it! I love to chase my feather wand and you should see how high I jump trying to catch it! I like to play fetch and will bring my toy back again and again for you to throw. I’m very inquisitive and love to see what you’re doing. You’ll always know where I am because I chirp and trill throughout the house. I enjoy watching the birds and chipmunks out the window with my foster cat sibling. I really enjoy playing with her but I think that I have a bit more energy than she does! When I finally do tire out, I am happy to curl up next to you for a little nap. My foster mom says that I am the sweetest boy. I am very well behaved and surprisingly gentle for as energetic and playful as I am. If you think that I would make a great addition to your family, please complete an application at: https://www.pawsohio.org/adoption Approx. birth date: March 5th, 2023 **This pet is fostered by: Karen**

Story
I found her out side during covid and kept some of her boys. They've grown up and get on her nerves now so she like to be outside more than inside. She got along with female cats and absolutely loves kittens, even if they're not hers. She's a cuddle bug, once she warms up she's always right on top of somebody. I'm looking for a home where she isn't stressed out all the time. Also I would really appreciate staying in contact, I'd like to make sure she's happy and and if it doesn't work out I'll be happy to bring her back and try rehoming her again. I'd be happy to help with food or litter when needed. She eats dry and wet food. No accidents outside her litter, she's used to using all kind of litter. She hasn't mistaken any of my plants for her litter but she was indoor/ outdoor and one of my other cats did think my plant was a fancy litter box.
