Skittles's Story

Skittles came to Good Mews for a better chance at finding the perfect home. A nice lady found her in their backyard and fostered her for a few months until space opened up at the shelter. She hasn’t had much interaction with people, so the world can feel a little scary to her right now.<br/><br/>Skittles is still learning that people can be kind and trustworthy, and because of that, she will need a very patient adopter who is willing to give her all the time and space she needs to settle in at her own pace. While she may be shy at first, with patience, understanding, and a quiet home, Skittles has the potential to blossom and build a strong bond with her person.<br/><br/>She’s looking for someone who will celebrate the small victories and let her come out of her shell on her own terms. If you have a gentle heart and the patience to help a timid kitty learn to trust, Skittles could be the perfect match for you.<br/><br/>Because Skittles is so shy, she would really benefit from having a feline friend or two. In her foster home, she got along well with the other cats in the home. <br/><br/>Skittles is part of the <a href="https://goodmews.org/kitty-keeper">Kitty Keeper</a> program!

Good Mews Animal Foundation's Adoption Policy
Adoption fees vary and are published on our Adoption Information page. There may be adoption discounts available; be sure to check the Ongoing Adoption Promotions page for details. All Good Mews cats have been examined by a veterinarian, tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV, spayed or neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and vaccinated with age appropriate vaccines. Records and information regarding any other vetting, surgery, or blood work that may have been completed prior to adoption will be provided to the adopter. In addition, all cats receive a complimentary bag of Science Diet cat food and a variety of items generously donated by our supporters, including toys. You may submit your application to adopt a cat prior to your appointment but we are unable to hold or otherwise promise a particular animal until you have visited our shelter in person. You only need one application for all of our animals. Once you submit an application, please visit our shelter so that we can help you select the perfect cat. *Good Mews has the right to refuse any applicant for any reason. All submitted surveys become the property of Good Mews. Policies Bring as many members of your household as possible, including children, to be sure that your family and the cat are compatible. A counselor will then interview you about your expectations and guide you through the shelter to meet our many residents. After that, it is up to you—and many times the cat will choose you! Once you have chosen your cat, your adoption has been approved, and you are ready to sign an adoption contract, we will need the following: two forms of ID bearing your current address, one with a photo. If you rent, we require a copy of your signed lease agreement outlining pet requirements and the name and phone number of your landlord. Good Mews accepts the following forms of payment for the adoption fee: Cash, Check, Visa, Mastercard, or American Express. Special Note Regarding Adopting Kittens Good Mews follows the advice of many leading animal behaviorists when designing our adoption policies. Research shows that kittens do best in environments with other cats or kittens because it helps them be better socialized, better behaved, and less likely to exhibit destructive behavior because they are less likely to be bored. As a result, we will only adopt kittens under the age of 8 months to a home with another cat or kitten, or in pairs from our shelter if the home does not already have a cat in residence.
