Mew-Mew House is closed for intakes until further notice. Today we lost two beloved members of the clowder. My stout heart can't handle this and the medical expenses are currently overwhelming.

Thank you for understanding.

If you wish to help financially, please go to mewmewhouse.org or visit mewmew.link/donate

For more information on the Mew Mew House in Williamson, NY, give us a call at 315-904-4226.

PUPDATE: Scout is back home and resting. He had one very very bad tooth. He was in surgery for more than an hour to remove it. But... totally worth it.

Final bill was $772.

************
Cats aren't the only members of the Mew-Mew House family. Scout is a geriatric husky who's at the vet today for what we hope is just a bad tooth.

Scout is amazing with the cats and a stellar citizen of the Mew-Mew clowder.

With blood work and everything, we expect this visit to be costly. Any help would be appreciated.

Sometimes on the heels of tragedy, breakthroughs happen.

We lost Sammy last night, but in the process Tony decided he felt safe outside of his crate - for the first time in the two months that he's lived here.

You're such a handsome guy, Tony. I'm glad to see you out and about!

When I saw that fleeting rainbow this morning, I knew I'd lose you today. We'll miss you, Sammy.

Mew-Mew Seems to attract "sugarcats." These are cats with diabetes.
Like humans, some cats are born diabetic, and others become diabetic due to excessive weight and poor dietary options.
Mew-Mew House has had as many as 5 sugarcats at a time, all of which require(d) insulin injections twice a day. Right now, we have three.
Insulin and syringes can be expensive. Any financial support is greatly appreciated.

The cat distribution system is fully functional at Mew-Mew House. Though we lose many of our residents all too soon (such is the nature of hospice and senior care), we welcome new residents just as frequently.

Sophie (pictured) and her bestie Tiger joined us a little over a week ago. She's 14 years old and simply stunning!

Mew-Mew House is a 501(c)3 retirement and hospice home for cats. Cats live in a big 'ol farm house as ... house cats. There are no cages. They have free run of the house. And they stay until the rainbow bridge calls them.
Your financial support covers the costs of veterinary care and food for all the cats, as well as provides enrichment opportunities.
Mew-Mew House is asking the community for assistance in obtaining and installing:
-- storage shelves (to safely store all our cat carriers - one for each cat)
-- a clothesline for hanging washed blankets, towels, and cat beds.
Thank you for all your support!

Mew-Mew House

A loving home for cats with nowhere to go.

Mew-Mew House is an 1830’s farmhouse on two acres in Williamson, NY. In this home dwells old, sick, or otherwise un-adoptable cats. These cats have the most warm and loving souls a person could ever hope to know, but found themselves homeless through no fault of their own.

Some cats have chronic challenges that have forced their loving families to find different accommodations. Some lost their homes because families had to move and could not take their beloved pets. Some of our cats’ loving pet parents passed away unexpectedly. Sometimes these cats are the innocent casualties of divorce.

Regardless, each cat here has a permanant home. We make sure their medical needs are met to the best of our ability. We don’t condemn any cat for ‘thinking outside the box.’ And as much as possible, we update families photos and stories about their cats, and involve families in any difficult decisions that must be made. Where possible, we allow families to enjoy one-on-one time with their pets when the end of life is near.
