Story
These two beautiful, sweet girls (Mom and daughter) were living in someone's shed along with 2 other siblings. They were being fed and loved but the people could not afford to get them spayed, so we offered to help. All 4 have now been spayed, vaccinated for FVRCP and rabies, flea treated, wormed and tested for v feline leukemia and aids ( both negative). The other 2 have been adopted but Coco and Momma Mary are still available and would love to come home with you! If interested, please fill out our application at castawaycatsde.com Thank you!

Story
Puss was brought to our home with her brother Boots about 4 years ago in January of 2022. She is very loving, curious, and loves cuddles, pets and lots of attention. She is a great cat! She has no behavioral issues, uses the litter box regularly and is not aggressive. She is just a ball of love. Unfortunately, due to life circumstances I can no longer keep her and want to have the best quality of life as possible. I am looking to rehome her in the next 3 weeks.

Story
Maxi is the queen of cats. She loves to play with cat toys and people. She is very mild mannered but will let you know when she wants some attention. She will cuddle up next to you in bed and maybe pounce on your hand under the covers. She loves hiding in boxes and bag. While she likes to cuddle and be pet she doesn't really like to be held. She has never hissed or swatted m, but she will try to get away. Her personality really shines. With a toddler and a baby on the way, we really want her to have a space where she can get all her love and attention.

Story
🐾 Looking for a loving home for Katy 🐾 This is Katy, a sweet senior girl around 14 years old. I adopted her about a year ago, and this is an incredibly hard post for me to make, but I’m hoping to find someone who can give her the time, attention, and care she deserves. Katy is a very sweet, laid-back girl. She loves having a cozy place to sleep, getting attention on her terms, and spending her days relaxing. She eats and drinks well and has so much personality. 🤍 Because of her age, she has recently started having some weakness in her back legs and has had some litter box difficulties, especially after I switched her to an automatic litter box. She was previously very good about using a regular litter box, so I think a simple, easily accessible setup would be best for her. I would love for her to go to someone who has experience with senior cats or is willing to give an older kitty a little extra patience and care.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.   Meet Rory, the tiny kitten with a huge personality. She may only be about 9 months old and 4 pounds, but she lives life with the confidence of a lion. Rory is fearless — always the first to explore a new space, greet new people, or rub up against her dog friends like they’ve known each other forever. She’s endlessly curious, outgoing, and full of energy, turning every toy into an adventure. Crinkle tubes, little balls, wand toys — she loves them all and plays with joyful enthusiasm. When she finally slows down, Rory becomes a sweet snuggler, curling up with the older cats on the windowsill or rubbing against her humans for affection. She adores everyone she meets and thrives around cats, dogs, and kids. With her perpetual‑kitten size and her big, loving personality, Rory will bring fun, affection, and nonstop charm to any home. This cat is spayed, microchipped, up to date on distemper and rabies vaccinations, dewormings, tested negative for FIV/Felv, is on flea/tick preventative and ear mite preventative.

Story
Meet Chelsea! If you are looking for a stunning, independent feline who knows her worth and brings just the right balance of fun and chill, Chelsea is your girl. With her gorgeous torbie tuxedo coat—a beautiful mix of colorful tortoiseshell-tabby patches paired with a dapper tuxedo white chest and paws—she is a true showstopper. Chelsea’s Perfect Vibe: ·   Playtime Enthusiast: Don’t let her sleek, calm demeanor fool you—break out a wand toy with feathers or strings, and you’ll see her inner athlete shine! ·   Affection on Her Terms: Chelsea loves human company and will happily strut over to request pets when she's feeling sweet. Once she’s had her fill of love, she gracefully steps away to go do her own thing. She’s an independent queen who appreciates a respectful companion. ·     Queen of the Castle: Chelsea prefers to be the one and only cat in the household. She wants all your devotion (and best sunny nap spots) reserved just for her! ·   Good with older children:  She would do wonderfully in a home with older children who understand feline body language and respect her boundaries. Chelsea offers the best of both worlds: a fun, interactive playmate when it’s game time, and a quiet, low-maintenance roommate when it’s time to relax. Give this lovely lady her forever throne, and she’ll reward you with loyalty, entertainment, and endless charm. Please submit a no-obligation application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Karen M) . October 20, 2026, 9:56 am
