MELODY

HISTORY: Melody was born at CFC alongside sisters Alexandra and Valerie. Tabby Momma Jozy is the proud mom. All of Melody’s family has been adopted. Perhaps the best is left for last!

More about me Winter 2025: My good human volunteer friend Scott has given me a new nickname. Now almost 2 yrs old and having grown up here at the Sanctuary, I’m no longer the “feisty girl” but more like the “mellow gal.” I continue to manage the front door to my room making sure everyone gets an appropriate greeting and welcome as they enter. I might even do a little tap dance of joy hoping perhaps the human could be my new person. When I’m not acting as maitre d’, I’m content to curl up and nap and watch the others put on a show. When housekeeping arrives in the morning, best part of my day is to hop up on that linen cart and make myself comfy. Oh, the joy. I’m in pristine health and my spirits are high with the hope that soon, I’m selected to go home. Until then, I’m getting top notch care and plenty of love. MELODY

Update Fall 2024: Ask anyone and they will tell you, “Melody should be in a home. She should have been adopted.” Can’t say I’d disagree with that statement and to that end, always I have my eye on the prize of going home. Some have even coined the phrase, “Always the bridesmaid. Never the bride.” I’m sure hoping to have that major life change soon so I’ll keep loving on all the humans who come into my room, climb up into their laps and if necessary, gaze deeply into their eyes! LOL. I’ve been a good girl and I truly enjoy engaging and interacting with all the others in my room. Sweet, loving and welcoming of all, I’m thinking my perfect person has simply not yet found me. Til that happens, I am happy and safe. MELODY

Update Spring 2024: “It’s a pleasure to meet you” is my opening line as folks enter my room.  On most days,  you will find me at my work site, on the cat tree by the main door.  I love greeting folks as they stop by and who knows, maybe that next visitor will be my new human?  I’m always super friendly and engaging and making sure I get enough TLC and attention is at the top of my “to do” list.   When housekeeping/staff arrive,  you should see how sneaky I am when I hop aboard their cleaning cart, stretch out and just make myself at home.  The cart is typically loaded down with clean linens on the top so it’s like a majestically poofy bed for me to relax on plus it’s a super convenient spot for the staff to love on me.   No doubt I am one of the most friendly kitties in my room and folks say I am loaded with purr-sonality!  One of my regular human friends Scott always gives me a good petting, some greatly appreciated lap time and then the fun kicks up a notch when he whips out his laser dot toy!  Life is good for me and I’m very healthy and happy.
