Story
*Courtesy Post! Contact Jayme by emailing jayyress@gmail.com for more information or to adopt. This is a courtesy post; this kitty is not with Blue's Mews.* Meet Ripley, the 13-year-old sweetheart with a heart of gold and a meow that means business—especially around mealtime! This doll baby was lovingly surrendered when her previous owners could no longer care for her, and now she’s looking for a quiet, cozy home to call her own. Ripley is a very lovely lady. She is incredibly affectionate, adorably drooly (thanks to a bit of dental disease), and delightfully chatty—she’ll keep you company and always remind you when it’s dinner time. She has a goofy nasal-sounding purr due to her unique breathing, but it’s totally normal and just adds to her charm. Ripley does have a special diet—Hill’s RX Digestive Care Dry Food and Purina Complete Essentials wet food with a sprinkle of Miralax to keep things running smoothly—but all her needs are simple and manageable and very low maintenance. She’ll come with her favorite water fountain, which she adores for fresh sipping all day long. If you’re ready to welcome a gentle, loving, and one-of-a-kind feline companion into your heart and home, Ripley is waiting to meet you! If you're interested in sweet miss Ripley, please contact Jayme directly using the email listed above!

She's such a sweet girl, her foster mama takes Fiona to work with her, where she's been given the job of office manager!

Story
Hootie is a friendly, funny lanky guy who loves to play--hard. He's very athletic and the red dot doesn't stand a chance against him. He's pretty shy at first but warms up quickly. He's a "kitty parkour" master, jumping and swinging from his cat tree and perches, especially during a bout of the zoomies. He enjoys being eye level with you. He likes to shrink away, flatten himself out and army crawl when you give him pets. He seems to like the attention, and it's just an odd quirk. You can actually "pet" him with your voice and have him falling over and rolling around on his back. He does not want to be held, but will tolerate a few seconds of it with some vigorous head scratches. Hootie unfortunately has stomatitis. He will need a special home that can keep an eye on his gum health and know when he needs to see a vet for his comfort. Following 6 extractions in May 2025, his dental health is much improved. We are currently trying Maxi Guard Dental Gel to keep the inflammation in his gums minimized. Hootie would do best with no kids or older kids and may befriend a docile dog, though he's never been around one before.. He needs to go to a home with another cat. Included with the adoption is the kitty's neuter, 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. In addition to being fully vetted, our cats and kittens are highly socialized. We offer a 2-week getting acquainted period and a 2-week wellness guarantee, so you can comfortably settle in with your new kitty! Please note, Hootie's foster lives in Midwestern Darke County. It's ok though, video chats are a GREAT way to do initial meet and greets!

Story
Ohh, sweet Neo! This gentleman has been returned not once, but TWICE because families he called his own went through sad divorces, resulting in his loss of home. He's currently hanging out with a foster mom and a lot of foster kitty friends, but he'd LOVE a family with more time for him and maybe just a couple other kitties, so he can relax and enjoy people who love him! Neo has been through so much change and turmoil in his short 7-years. One of our top priorities is finding someone who will truly be a safe place for him to be valued and loved, forever! We understand moves, changes in family, additional pets brought in... this boy NEEDS consistent love from the same people who love him, and he deserves nothing less. Please consider carefully before applying for this love bug. (And if you decide you ARE the forever home he's searching for, we will be SO THRILLED for you both! We think Neo is wonderful!!) Included with the adoption is the kitty's spay/neuter, 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. In addition to being fully vetted, our cats and kittens are highly socialized.

Story
Barnabas is a 10 year old cat we adopted about 2 years ago. Since then, we have added two other animals to our home and he is having a hard time thriving with them. He’s great with people and children, but is very frightened by other animals. He loves to cuddle. If you have no other animals in your home and are looking for someone to keep your lap warm, he’s great. When he’s the only one getting attention though, he thrives.
