Melody's story is a shocking one. We were called last summer when a passerby heard noises in a dumpster. When he looked inside, he found a cardboard box containing little Melody and her four newborn kittens. The box had been taped shut, leaving Melody and her babies helpless and destined for a very horrible ending. Melody and her babies were starving and suffering from severe anemia due to a massive flea infestation. We were called immediately but it was too late for one of the kittens. Later that night, we lost another of the babies. Melody and her remaining two kittens made a slow but full recovery. Melody is still timid because of her ordeal but is a happy cat. She loves to run around the house just because she can. She is showing great progress in interacting with the other foster cats and the family dog. Melody loves crawling around on foster mom and has even started playing with one of the younger cats in the home. Melody is a beautiful, petite brown/tan tabby color with darker calico-like markings on her back and a small, squeaky voice. She has the softest fur ever and loves belly rubs. We guess her to be about 1-3 years old. Can you be the happy ending for little Melody and her terrible story? Contact Coreen at [email protected] to meet her.
The adoption fee is on a sliding scale; $50 to $75. You decide the amount that is right for you to give. We have an all volunteer staff so your entire fee goes towards saving AWF's rescue animals. If your donation covers medical costs, then the remainder of your donation will go towards helping save another homeless pet!

Breed Disclosure: Due to the fact that most of our adoptable pets are strays, we can not guarantee their breed. We list the pet’s breed as the one that best matches the physical appearance, temperament, and personality of the animal. The pet may also be listed as a mix when it’s actually a purebred.
