Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Forman was found in a lot near a bunch of warehouses. We were not sure if he was going to make it because he was coated with cement that had hardened completely encasing his tail, feet and was also all over his belly. We think his mother had been hiding her litter in a cement mixer. Forman was found alone, barely able to move because of the encrusted cement. The vet was unable to remove it as Forman was too small to be shaved. Forman was found at only a couple weeks old and still needed his mother to nurse. But, we were unable to locate her so we came up with another plan..a surrogate mother! One of our volunteers had a nursing mom that only had 3 kittens. We waited until she left her babies to eat then rubbed her kittens all over Forman and slipped him in with the others. The momma came back, inspected all 4 kittens, and started to nurse...success! She accepted little Forman as her own! As he grew and the new momma groomed him the cement started to flake off. As the cement fell off, so did Forman's fur leaving large bald spots. The fur has now grown back in and he is a beautiful, happy and playful black and rust kitten!
Foreman loves our dog Toby, he sleeps next to him all the time. Foreman and his sister Splash play with all ages of cats and as Ash said, love our dog. They are quite mischievous and playful. They enjoy playing with toys, kids and each other. They love to climb cat trees, running after each other or a feather toy and sleeping in laps.
Forman requires a home where he will never be declawed, or allowed to go outside. Forman is current with his vaccines. We estimate that Forman was born about August 2, 2016.
