Hello, I’m Mel! My foster mom likes to call me "MELt my heart" and I think she’s right. My story began in the woods, where I was found all alone, hungry and afraid. Thankfully, Roses Rescue volunteers scooped me up and brought me to safety. Now I’m in a foster home and I've learned what it means to feel loved!

At first, I was shy and preferred to watch the other foster kittens play from my hiding spot. But with patience, lots of yummy pate, and gentle care, I really blossomed. I’ve learned that being petted and cuddled feels pretty wonderful, and that I can purr! These days, I even meow for my foster mom when I want treats or attention. She loves when I snuggle into her lap and she scratches my little ear tufts.

I love other cats and would be so happy to have a feline friend in my new home. I’m also much braver than I used to be.  I may start out a little reserved, but once I feel safe, I’ll show you my sweet and playful side. If you’re ready to open your heart to a gentle guy who’s learning how wonderful love can be, I’m ready to MELt into your arms forever!
