Story
Alex has been in a foster home since January 2025 - he needs a forever home NOW! Alex is a very sweet boy that has overcome a lot in his lifetime. When he was found in the streets in the bitter cold, he was extremely thin and unwell, and the tips of his ears and the pads of his feet had frostbite. After being in a loving foster home for a very long period of time, he is now the handsome boy you see! The skin on the pads of his feet have peeled, revealing very soft toe beans, and the tips of his ears have fallen off. He now has a thick, bunny-soft coat and very good body weight. He is quite laidback at times and would be a good cuddle buddy. But when he sees a toy, he gets his spunk on and is off and running (he especially loves playing with a laser). Alex now needs a forever home where he can feel safe and loved – is that with you? PLEASE NOTE: Alex is presently in a foster home, so if you are interested in adopting him, please send a message to patessel56@gmail.com . Please be sure to include your telephone number. A time will then be arranged for a meet and greet at the shelter.

Story
Meet Ocean! Ocean is a handsome boy with a calm, soulful spirit. He’s a bit shy at first, preferring to observe the world around him until he feels safe. But with patience, love, and a gentle touch, he begins to open up — and that’s when you’ll see just how special he truly is. Ocean gets along well with other felines. He’s not the kind to demand attention, but he appreciates soft voices, slow movements, and a kind heart that understands the beauty of earning trust over time. Once he feels secure, his calm and affectionate nature will make him a wonderful, peaceful companion. If you have the patience to let a shy heart bloom and the love to offer him a forever home, Ocean will reward you with quiet loyalty and gentle affection.

Story
Meet Duncan! He’s a total lovebug who craves attention and will happily soak up all the pets you’re willing to give. He shows his affection with the cutest head-butt hugs, and once he starts, it’s hard to stop. Duncan is incredibly affectionate, with gorgeous green eyes that seem to look right into your soul, and super-long white whiskers that only add to his charm. Duncan does have special needs, though, because he is FIV positive. He can still live a very healthy, active life, and can be adopted as the only cat in the home or with other FIV-positive kitties. As long as all cats in the home get along well, he can even be adopted to a home with non-FIV cats. Please click the following link to learn more about FIV in cats: https://www.animalhealthfoundation.org/blog/2012/08/demystifying-the-feline-fiv-positive-stigma/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=12266384074&gbraid=0AAAAADy0rxCstAbJfLoq5vCNDz6bTZQcZ&gclid=CjwKCAiAmKnKBhBrEiwAaqAnZz-mMpIbF6pwIwGlIONr76ibmXL0jsL5l8ljPC-ZiDs6v7Ov6N4o1BoCIWAQAvD_BwE .

Millie is gentle, kind, silly in the most adorable waysTo 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 it with you.  Current on vaccinations, and have tested negative for both FIV ('Feline Immunodeficiency Virus') and FeLV (Feline Leukemia). Introducing Millie — the shy sweetheart with a heart made of warm sunshine.At 4 months old, Millie has already checked off all the important boxes: she’s spayed, FeLV/FIV negative, and fully prepared to dedicate her life to being one of the best kittens ever (a title she accepts with great humility… and a tiny bit of pride). Millie may start off a little shy — she’ll give you that “Hmm… can I trust this human?” look from across the room — but give her a moment and you’ll watch her transform into the sweetest, most loving cuddlebug you’ve ever met. Once she decides you’re her person, she’ll follow you like a soft, purring shadow and curl up next to you as if she’s known you her whole life. She’s gentle, kind, silly in the most adorable ways, and has a special talent for melting hearts with just one slow blink. Millie’s the kind of kitten who makes you feel chosen — and honestly, that’s the best feeling in the world. Approx. birth date: 08/15/2025 Foster:  LLDecember 11, 2025, 11:04 am
