Story
Born on May 7, 2023. Has 5 other siblings.* All are ready for adoption. Never been outside - flea free. Eating hard cat food. Weaned. Litterbox trained. I am NOT 100% certain of the sex of the kittens so make sure to double check before finalizing the adoption. "Are dilute calico cats rare? Yes, even female dilute calico cats are rare. As we saw above, only one in every 1,000 cats is born a standard calico and dilute calico cats are that much harder to come by. One of the reasons for this is that the dilution gene is what’s known as a recessive gene. That means that a more dominant gene can mask it and a kitten would need to inherit the dilution gene from both parents in order to be born a dilute calico. "...- so, consider yourself very lucky indeed if you become the pet parent to one of these beauties." https://www.petsradar.com/advice/dilute-calico-cat

Story
Rosie is such a sweet girl and i’m truly heartbroken to rehome her. I’ve had her for 6 years and had adopted her from SPCA in cincinnati. She is about to be 6 years old on September 28th. She is all caught up on vaccines. Sadly my reasoning for rehoming is due to the fact that she does not get along with my dog anymore, i’ve tried everything to rehabilitate their relationship but she needs to be in a home with only cats or no other animals for her own well being. She is so playful and sweet and will give you so much loving and kisses; when she’s really happy she’ll start giving little love nibbles. she loves going outside but likes to stay very close to home and will only be out for short periods at a time. she loves her cat tower, her tunnel, and a specific wooden stick toy. the fee is $100 to ensure she’s going to a good home that can truly provide for her and love on her. i’d love to be able to stay in contact if willing, so heartbroken to have to do this!

Story
Meet Phoebe! 🩷Phoebe is an absolutely fantastic cat looking for her forever home. She is incredibly loving, cuddly, and very social. She’s fully house-trained, loves to play, and catnip is definitely one of her favorite things! She would be best served in a single cat household! She’s also an amazing traveler—she rides quietly in the car without making a peep. She even tolerated a bath without a single complaint, showing just how calm and easygoing she is.Phoebe has been examined by a veterinarian, is up to date on all of her vaccinations, and has tested negative for feline leukemia (FeLV).Phoebe was found on July 30, and despite our hopes of keeping her, we unfortunately aren’t able to provide her with a permanent home. She deserves a family who will give her all the love and attention she has to offer.If you think Phoebe might be the perfect addition to your family, please reach out!

Story
Say hello to MATTIE! -Adult (~3-5 years) -Dedicated biscuit maker -Powerful purr and sandpaper kisses! -A bit of an enigma, afraid of life itself -This kitty has behavioral considerations and will require medications and a special diet Mattie came into rescue very shut down, and has made some slow but steady progress in foster care with a calm environment and gentle routine, but her emotional comfort zone remains…contained. Literally. Fostering Mattie brings irony to the concept of foster home based rescue, considering the whole point is so that cats don't have to remain isolated, but solitude is truly Mattie's safe space: she has a single spare room all to herself, and will not come out of it. She’ll need a very special adopter; someone with a bounty of both time and patience to help unravel this fuzzy little ball of neuroticism. (And handling skills, as we would not consider her the easiest kitty to medicate, and the sensitive tummy makes for secretly medicated treats a challenge). Mattie lives with SIGNIFICANT anxiety that makes new environments and people overwhelming for her. She is very easily stressed and now that she is finally starting to become a bit more “cat-like” in her foster environment, we are eager to send her off to blossom in her forever environment. Despite her persistent state of “I Am Afraid,” she is truly soft at heart. She greets her food with enthusiasm, is passionate about fuzzy blankies, enjoys birdwatching from her cat tree, and is also a fan of chin scritchies and brushies. She has a proud purr and quite impressively (and perhaps slightly unsettingly) large eyeballs. Mattie’s anxiety does not actually present itself in a fractious nature; she doesn’t bite, she just hides when overwhelmed. Mattie wouldn’t hurt a fly. In fact, she is probably afraid of them. She is otherwise in good health, fully vaccinated, spayed, and also recently had her teeth cleaned.   What kind of home does Mattie need? -Quiet and low-stress -Patient and observant -Experienced with or open to supporting a behaviorally complex cat with medication needs -Okay with a cat who may always be a bit of a nervous nellie Just think of Mattie as the embodiment of “introvert energy.” Her current routine consists of liquid gabapentin by mouth twice daily, transdermal fluoxetine in the morning, and a hydrolyzed diet to keep her anxious tummy happy. So if you’re patient, motivated by even the tiniest progress, and emotionally fluent in “cat,” Mattie might just be your tiny, ghost-eyed soulmate.  Included with the adoption is the kitty's spay, all current-due FVRCP, FeLeuk, and rabies vaccinations for kitties over 1-year, deworming, flea treatment, a wellness check, FIV/FeLV combo testing, and microchipping. We offer a 2-week getting acquainted period and a 2-week wellness guarantee, so you can comfortably settle in with your new kitty! To apply to adopt, please complete an adoption inquiry at www.bluesmews.org so our adoption specialist volunteer can review it and contact you!

Poppy is being graciously sponsored by Anthony & Cynthia Burns!Poppy is such a soft and chatty girl! Her fur feels like petting a cloud, and thankfully she's a big fan of pets and cuddles! Poppy is definitely an extrovert and has a lot to say, so be ready for some full conversations about all kinds of things- probably food, cuddles, looking out windows, and zooming around playing with toys like springs. Springs are the BEST toy! She is on the hunt for a new best friend, so come visit Poppy in the lounge!

Opalite is being graciously sponsored by Daneille Vrtar!Opalite is a young lady with a striking gray coat and a big personality! She's confident, playful, and friendly. She took a few days to warm up to the cat lounge, but now she's often climbing up on our wall shelves or cat trees, running around, playing with toys, and looking for a person to get some pets or playtime! Opalite came to us with her sister Angelite, and they are hoping to go home together. She's ready to make your home her own and be your new bestie!

Patty is being graciously sponsored in honor of all the kitties needing a safe and loving forever home!Patty is a petite girl who loves to spend time with people. She will come trotting over to you for pets and loves to get a chin rub. Patty is still getting used to sharing her space with so many other (cat) roommates, so we're still getting to know her full personality, but if you want an outgoing cat who loves to cuddle, she may be the girl for you!
