Meet our littlest resident, Pluto!
Pluto is roughly 9 weeks old and is ready to meet his potential forever family! Pluto would do well in a home with cats and/or calm dogs as well as a home with children. He lives the best of both worlds and loves to run and play with his friends or toys, but also loves to be cuddled and pampered all day long!

Pluto is available for “pre-adoption”, and if you are interested in Pluto, please fill out an adoption application at the link below and mention his name! Pluto is so excited to meet you! ❤️🐈‍⬛

It fills me with so much joy to see these babies grow up in such a loving place with their new families 💕

I’m happy to report to everyone that Stax is doing great at home! He hates his cone, but has been soaking up all the snuggles from his new family❤️❤️
Here’s some words written by his new family!

“Wow! Thank you all so much for your generous donations. Stax is doing great. Although he hates his cone, he has been napping on the couch dreaming of chasing mice through open fields, no cone in sight. We can't say enough good things about Beauchamp Animal Hospital and Sara at The Cat's Meow Rescue. Thank you all!”

Meet Tom Sawyer!

This sweet little man is apart of our "Literature Litter", and is sure to melt your heart!

Similar to the actual Tom Sawyer, this little guy had a bit of a bumpy start to his life. Our Tom was found dumped along with 5 other kittens by the railroad tracks, with no help in sight. Luckily, a Good Samaritan came just in time to rescue the little family, before any harm could be done to them! When he arrived to us, we found out that one of the kittens Tom was dumped with, was actual his poor young mother.

We estimate that mama was only around 4 months old when she gave birth to her 4 babies, and was probably dumped soon after the kittens started growing up. And at the same age his mom became pregnant with him and his siblings, Tom found himself in the big world without a home. Now, little Tom has not let this sour start in life effect his attitude- in fact, he still loves people, and sees the best in everyone! And although we have fallen madly in love with this little family, we can't wait for little Tom Sawyer to finally get his happy ending with a forever home to call his very own.

Tom is around 6-7 months old, and has already been neutered and started his vaccines. We believe the ideal home for Tom would be one that appreciates a good lap cat who loves to snuggle and give kisses, but also one that will play with him the other half of the time! If you are interested in Tom Sawyer, please fill out our adoption application on our petfinder profile or message us!

Announcing the royal, Lady Tulip 🌷👑
Tulip considers herself a close relative of the royal family, next in line for the throne- and she bows before no dog, cat, or person. It matters not that she is only 6 months of age, she is wise beyond her years. Her story may have began in rags, but what good princess tale doesn’t? Fear not, for she does still have a compassionate side despite no longer being able to bear children of her own. And we can promise you she does not carry any plague as she has been fully vaccinated- so no need to worry about her little “love nibbles” as we like to call them 😉

Tulip is still awaiting her carriage ride to her very own castle. So, if you have a throne room with no one to occupy it, please consider putting forth your inquiries about Tulip on our adoption application linked in our PetFinder page- or send us a message!

Lady Tulip can not wait to meet her potential suitors! 💕

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃👻🐈‍⬛
We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

Did you know that black cats are considered bad luck in many societies, especially on Halloween? Well, in order to ensure our cats here at the rescue are safe- we take extra careful precautions with our cats (especially our black cats) during Halloween season.

As a rule, I will not put up any all black cats on our adoption site during the month of October into early November for the cat’s safety. You will see this with a lot of rescues and shelters. I will also bring our outdoor TNR cat inside during Halloween, just in case there are any people who come across her with evil intentions.

Wednesday Addams and Luna are two of our black kittens that have not previously been posted, but will be available for adoption very soon! (Wednesday is the short haired girl, and Luna has long hair!) Luna is apart of a bonded pair with her orange tabby brother, who is also long haired, and will need to be adopted together as a pair. Wednesday can be adopted out on her own, as her brother, Lurch, is not quite ready to hit the adoption page.

Stay tuned for these girls on our website, and let us know which one you think wore the bat costume the best! 🦇🐈‍⬛

Let me introduce you to our senior hospice foster, Callie.
Callie came to us from our friends at a local TNR rescue group. Callie was found laying in the middle of a neighborhood street almost completely lifeless. Neighbors reported seeing her laying there for almost 3 days, and they had assumed she was deceased. Luckily for her, someone stopped on the way home from work and realized she was in fact alive, but in rough condition, and called the local TNR group who came to her rescue right away. They gave her some much needed fluids, some food, and a warm bed for the night until she was able to be transported to the animal hospital I work at and into the rescue’s care.

During her exam, it was found that Callie has stomatitis- which is a condition where the body treats the teeth like a foreign body, and will try to reject them. This causes terrible pain and horrible mouth erosion. It also appeared that Callie had a growth in her mouth, which we believed to be cancerous, and therefore scheduled surgery to extract most of her teeth and remove the growth that day.

We also found out Callie is likely diabetic, as well as FIV positive. This makes treating any wounds or infections in her body so much harder, as her body is just unable to heal like other cats. This is what caused me to decide to place Callie into our senior hospice program.

I’m proud to say that Callie has improved greatly in the past few months she’s been here at the rescue. She is living a comfortable life by getting monthly steroid and antibiotic injections to control her chronic mouth infections, as well as getting as much wet food as she can eat. No longer are the days of her laying in the street for days on end with no help. Callie will live out the rest of her days here at the rescue enjoying a heated bed she can call her own, access to food and water constantly, and surrounded by love💕

At first glance, this looks like a picture of a bunch of kittens together- and while that it true, there is a Mama cat that is also present amongst her 4 kittens.

We are estimating that mama cat is roughly around 10 months old, and already a mother of 4. This is a prime example of why it is absolutely vital to spay and neuter your pets. The toll and stress pregnancy and birth takes on an adult cat is hard enough, but on a kitten that is not fully developed and having to struggle to live her life on her own outside, is just horrendous. And the worst part, these cats are all so friendly, it’s clear they have grown up around humans and mama could have possibly been someone’s pet at some point. But because of irresponsible pet owners, she was dumped with her 4 children to care for before she even reached her 1 st birthday.

There are so many resources available for pet owners or even good samaritans who find animals on their own that need to be spayed or neutered. There is no excuse for not getting your animals spayed and neutered, especially if you let them outdoors. Many county animal shelters and hospitals offer free or low cost spay and neuter clinics, as well as organizations that are built for the main purpose of spaying and neutering animals that run solely on donations alone. Many vet clinics will also offer discounts or spay/neuter programs! If you have a pet that is outdoors that needs to be spayed or neutered, but don’t know where to find resources for them, reach out to your local vet clinic or search “spay and neuter clinics near me”.

If everyone spayed and neutered their pets, we could save more animals like mama from having to learn how to survive on the streets with 4 children to care for, while also being a kitten herself.

ADOPTED🎉❤️
These cats and kittens have finally found their forever homes, and I couldn’t be more happy!

Mr. Moo and Rigatoni have officially become brothers for life, and are now living together with a very sweet couple! Mr. Moo has recently been doing acupuncture treatments for his IBS, and his mom reports that he is doing great with them! Rigatoni has come out of his shell and now takes naps with his new family, such a drastic improvement from his spicy kitten days💕

Toffee and one our brand new additions, Gomez Addams, have been adopted together by a fellow vet tech and coworker of mine. She knew he was a perfect match with Toffee as soon as she set eyes on him! Toffee is currently breaking in her new brother and teaching him all the moves to WWE: Kitten edition😂 they have also been renamed to Anataze (Toffee) and Bizmuth (Gomez Addams)!

Adoption days are always a bittersweet day, but they are becoming one of my favorite days because I am confident these cats are going to homes that will love them just as much as I do💕
