Good Mews is a fabulous shelter for cats, in fact, it is more like a sanctuary. Cats roam free with…read morelots of cat trees to climb and windows to look out. All their medical and dietary needs are taken care of. They are constantly observed by the staff and hundreds of devoted volunteers so if one looks to have a runny eye or cough, they are checked out by a vet tech and/or make a visit to the vet. Finding good homes for good kitties is their motto and goal, however, once a Good Mews cat, always a Good Mews cat, so those who are not adopted, have a safe home for life. Pregnant mothers and kittens are taken into foster care so they benefit from human interaction. Many people drop by on adoption days just to visit with the cats and kittens. Good Mews has certain standards they follow, such as an Access Agreement for all visitors, however this is for the well-being of the animals and the humans. At other shelters, the animals are all in cages so personal encounters are limited. With a totally open environment and about 100 cats at any given time, it works best when everyone understands what to expect. I adopted two kitties there in 2014 and they came with a full medical profile. All Good Mews cats are spayed or neutered, micro-chipped, tested for diseases and vaccinated. A special effort is made to socialize the more timid or aggressive cats so they have a better chance of being adopted. Advice is provided to adopters to help the animals make a good adjustment to their home and family. Good Mews also sponsors events at the shelter, such as Reading to Cats for kids and Yoga with Cats for adults, and other special activities throughout the year. It's a fantastic organization and I proudly recommend them.

Frankly, I'd avoid Good Mews. Despite their mission, my experience left me believing the…read moreorganization is no more inclusive than groups that openly exclude people. It has taken me months to write this because it was one of the most demeaning volunteer experiences I have ever had. I joined Good Mews in January 2026 as a volunteer and was selected for the medical committee, my first-choice assignment. I assisted with evening medications including pills, eye drops, and special diets--basic tasks that did not require a veterinary license. I have worked in both animal and human healthcare, own six pets, and completed five weeks of volunteering without a single correction or complaint. On my final shift, before I even entered the building, I was pulled aside by two older white female volunteers--one I had never even met--and told that, after "internal discussion," I was no longer a fit for the medical committee because of my fingernails. My nails had been the same since my first day and had never once been mentioned. Instead, I was told I would be "a better fit" for the cleaning committee. Imagine being a Master's-educated Black woman, lifelong cat owner, and healthcare professional, only to have two volunteer cat ladies decide you belong cleaning instead of providing medical care. I was devastated and am still affected by that experience. The situation raised serious concerns: 1. I was discussed and evaluated without my knowledge. 2. I was removed without prior communication or documented performance issues. 3. Standards were applied inconsistently, since nothing about my appearance had changed. 4. The tone and handling of the situation felt dismissive, isolating, and racially motivated. As one of the only Black volunteers I ever saw there, I could not ignore how this felt. I emailed the Executive Director detailing my concerns. Rather than addressing them, she simply upheld the volunteers' decision and again encouraged me to join the cleaning committee. I then emailed the Board of Directors. One board member met with me for coffee and acknowledged that Good Mews struggles to attract younger and more diverse volunteers. I left hopeful that the situation would be resolved and that I could continue volunteering. He said he would speak with the volunteer leadership and get back to me. That was in April. I never heard from him again. The volunteer who ultimately removed me had been passive-aggressive from my first day. Within minutes of meeting me she said, "There's a code to the front door, but we'll see if you stick around before I give it to you." After five weeks I still had no door code or name badge. Although the medical tasks were straightforward, I was shadowed for weeks. On my fourth week another volunteer took over my "training." Her first question was, in a condescending tone, "What do you feel you need to improve?" When I politely explained I felt comfortable with the routine but would ask if I needed help, her demeanor changed immediately. Throughout the shift she repeatedly inserted herself into conversations and hovered over my work despite my having demonstrated I could perform the tasks independently. As a healthcare professional, cleanliness matters to me. I wore gloves, changed them between cats, and regularly disinfected the medication area. Meanwhile, I repeatedly watched the lead volunteer clean urine, feces, and vomit with her bare hands, manually express a cat into the medication room sink without gloves, and simply rinse the sink with water. She even told me not to worry about cleaning because it would be done later. On one occasion she had cat vomit on her face for over 30 minutes after cleaning it up. Those conditions were honestly disturbing. I adore the cats at Good Mews, and I sincerely hope every one of them finds a loving home. My criticism is directed at the organization's leadership and volunteer culture, not the animals. There are many wonderful shelters in the Atlanta area that deserve support. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Good Mews. I believe I was treated differently because of my race, and after exhausting every internal avenue--including the Executive Director and the Board--I was ignored. I will continue sharing my experience, and I've included a photo of the "too long" nails that ended my volunteer position.

The rescue is located in Dacula. The address is withheld because they don't want unwanted pet…read moredrops offs. The animals here are mostly cats ( some indoor some outdoor ) and a couple pigs and goats. All of the animals are rescues, pulled from animal controls all over the state ( and some out of state ) and many of them are found animals in dire need of help. The indoor cats are free to roam inside a small house. Those that are friendly will walk up to you and let you know. Those that are not as socialized as they should be, just walk away from you. It is the same for the community cat enclosure, which is mostly outside. These are cats that have always lived outside and may have previously been called "feral". Some of them want nothing to do with people, but get along well enough with the other animals there. They are all vaccinated, spayed/neutered and microchipped. Most of them are up for adoption. The goats and pigs are well cared for and get along with one another. The farm always needs volunteers for a variety of everyday things and larger projects. Use the website to fill out a volunteer form and someone will contact you for a short tour of the property.
