Story
Meet Thomas! This absolutely precious little boy showed up on a kind lady’s porch and simply wouldn’t leave. He knew he didn’t want to be alone and scared outside anymore—he wanted love, safety, and companionship. When she couldn’t bring him inside, she reached out to our rescue to help him find the home he’s been waiting for. Thomas is truly one of the sweetest, most snuggly kittens you’ll ever meet! He melts into your arms, purrs nonstop, and thrives on love and attention. With his gentle nature and affectionate heart, Thomas is more than ready to be someone’s cherished companion. This darling boy deserves nothing less than the very best forever home—one filled with love, cuddles, and the security he longed for. Could Thomas be the kitten your heart has been waiting for? 💕

Story
Meet Tilly! 🌸🐾 Tilly’s story is one of strength, love, and resilience. When her family moved away, she was left behind—pregnant and alone. With no safe place to go, she made a home under an evergreen bush on the property, where she fiercely protected and cared for her babies until help arrived. Now that her kittens are safe and growing, it’s Tilly’s turn to be the one who’s cared for. This gorgeous calico is incredibly social and affectionate—she loves people, seeks out attention, and has a purr that warms the room. After all she’s been through, Tilly is more than ready to trade the uncertainty of her past for the comfort of a forever home. She gave her heart to raising her little family—now she’s ready to give that same love to you. 🧡

Story
Meet Tulip! 🌸🐾 Tulip’s journey began under the shelter of an evergreen bush, where her loving mama protected her babies after being left behind when her family moved away. Despite such a hard start, little Tulip has blossomed into the most precious gray-and-white girl with a heart full of love. Just like her name, Tulip is soft, gentle, and full of life. She adores cuddle time, purrs endlessly when she’s close to you, and still has all the playful kitten energy to keep you smiling. With her sweet spirit and affectionate nature, she’s ready to grow and thrive in a forever home where she’ll always be safe and loved. Tulip has waited long enough—it’s her time to bloom with a family of her own. 🌷💜

Meet Toby! 🤍🐾 Toby’s story began under the branches of an evergreen bush, where his brave mama cared for her babies after being left behind when her family moved away. She did everything she could to keep them safe and loved, and now it’s Toby’s turn to find the home he’s been waiting for. This gray and white sweetheart is as cuddly as he is playful. Toby melts into your arms for snuggles, then bounces off to chase a toy or explore with his curious little paws. His gentle spirit and affectionate nature make him a perfect companion for someone looking for both fun and love in one adorable package. Toby’s ready to leave his past behind and step into a bright future—could it be with you? 🏡 💙

Story
Meet Tango! 🧡 This little orange tabby has a big story for such a tiny kitten. His brave mama was left behind when her family moved away, and she did her best to protect her babies under an evergreen bush, waiting and hoping for the life she once knew. From that tough beginning came Tango—a sweet, snuggly, and playful boy who’s ready to leave his past behind and twirl his way into a forever home. Tango loves cuddles just as much as he loves playtime, making him the perfect mix of fun and affection. He’s looking for a family to give him the love and security his mama once dreamed of, and he’ll return it tenfold with purrs, cuddles, and a lifetime of devotion. Could Tango be your happy ending? 🐾

Story
Sheldon wants to be held at his convenience... because he would rather be playing, or spying on the neighbors! He's a silly boy who likes to reach out and try to swat at you as you walk by or if you're taking his picture. He does that to say it is playtime, no harm meant... It's all in fun! Sheldon doesn’t usually talk much, but when he does he gives you a mouthful. He loves playing with his foster's other cats and usually sleeps on the couch, snuggled with another cat. Our vet estimates him at approximately 2.5 years old. 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! To apply to adopt, please complete an adoption inquiry at www.bluesmews.org so our adoption specialist volunteer can review it and contact you!
