Learn More About Volunteering

Good Mews is an alternative to traditional animal shelters, offering a cage-free space for cats to wait for their forever homes.

About Us

Our 5,500 square-foot facility was built with the cats in mind—large windows allow the cats to receive natural light and enrichment. The only time cats are in cages is for medical observation or quarantine. But our impact reaches beyond our shelter walls. Good Mews provides the community with life-saving programs such as TNVR, a low-cost spay/neuter clinic, pet food pantries, and much more.

Why Is My Cat Losing Its Mind at 3am?

You’re dead asleep. Then, out of nowhere, full-speed sprint down the hallway, a flying leap onto the bed, a face six inches from yours, purring like a motorcycle. It’s 3am. Again.
