Story
I love my Cali but a few things have led me to have to let her go. We rescued her as a kitten from the streets and gave her a good home with my other two cats who already lived with us. They ended up getting along fine but I believe this kitty is stressed out in our home and feeling like she has to compete with our other cats for territory. It seems my other cats intimidate her and she'd rather stay away from them. She uses her litter box just fine. I just got the news that I am 7 weeks pregnant and unfortunately I need to cut down on my animals and believe this kitty deserves a loving home with preferably no other cats in the home. She is due for an updated rabies shot. She was chipped, examined, spayed shots when we rescued her. (I have paperwork) I really wouldn't be giving her away if I wasn't pregnant but the thought of my other cats stressing her out and me being pregnant I believe this would be a good choice. I dont want her going to the spca.

Story
This is Tabatha a young momma.  She came to foster with a single baby. Baby has found her forever home on 9/27/2025.  Now, Tabatha can look for hers.   She’s a bit cautious at first, but when she warms up, she is a love bug.  Tabatha loves her back scratches and plops down and rolls around when she’s  happy.  She still startles at fast-moving people, but she’s learning.   Tabatha loves adventures and is very inquisitive.  She will sit at the window bird watching, too.  She has no interest in the outdoors.  She would love to stay in a warm house and be pampered.    Tabatha gets along with other cats; she has not been introduced to dogs nor to young children.   Tabatha is small and is maybe a year to a year and a half old.  She is spayed and vaccinated, in need of her booster but will be all ready when the right human comes along.  Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Denise P.)November 12, 2025, 11:14 am

Story
Now at Glen Mills Petsmart. Come visit! Please meet gorgeous Magnolia! Her lovely coat is especially soft, like petting a velvety cloud. Magnolia relaxed immediately when she arrived at her foster home. Then later Magnolia was content while driving to Petsmart and was calm and collected when she arrived at the Petsmart adoption center.  Such a cool cat! This calico beauty welcomes pets and she purrs constantly. Plus she can be chatty, offering you occasional chirps. Magnolia is a confident, social girl. She enjoys keeping her humans company and is an easy keeper. Could Magnolia bring her regal presence to your home? The photos show Magnolia’s amazing markings. The unique coloring on her back looks like a symmetrical work of art! Take a peek at Magnolia’s video:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g31m0R7UY6M .

Story
Meet Jennifer— a Calico beauty with a heart as soft as her fur… on her terms, of course. She’s the kind of cat who’ll curl up beside you like a cozy little cloud, but don’t mistake that for full-time snuggle duty. Affection is earned, not expected. Playful when the mood strikes. She enjoys a good game of chase-the-string, followed by a very dignified grooming session. Independent and poised, she’s got that “I love you, but I also love my space” kind of charm. One minute she’s purring in your lap, the next she’s giving you the look because you dared to pet her twice in a row. Beautiful, intelligent, and just the right amount of spicy—Jennifer is a little enigma in fur, and she wouldn’t have it any other way. (Jennifer was rescued from a cat hoarding situation, and she appears to prefer to be the only cat in a home given her history). Jennifer is playing in our Willow Grove clinic/shelter.  Please check out her video:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/iRLxIrYg6Is . Please ask to meet her!   Please  submit our no-obligation application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/ .  Thank you!  (Foster: Rachel B.).November 8, 2025, 8:06 pm

Story
Meet Ladybird aka Sparrow!1-year-old female | Calico with tabby markings (Tabico). Ladybird wasn’t shy about asking for help. She simply showed up one day, gently asking anyone—everyone—to let her inside and give her a place to belong. She clearly knew she didn’t want to be outside any longer. When no microchip was found and no one came forward after posting her on Facebook, rescuers knew Ladybird deserved better than a life waiting on porches or braving the summer heat. She was brought to Forgotten Cats, where she could finally be safe, loved, and start fresh. Ladybird is sweet, trusting, and full of gratitude—her way of saying 'thank you' is by leaning in for affection and purring softly. She’s ready to leave the past behind and find a home that will never let her down. Take a look at the photo and video of Ladybird on a blanket basking in the sun. Her coat is so beautiful! She was quietly enjoying pets from her new visitor, until I shocked her on the nose. (But sweet Ladybird quickly forgave me.)  Here is her video:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/54HwQIA_zmE . Please let Ladybird into your heart—she’s been waiting for you. Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Not ready to adopt?  Please consider fostering:  https://forgottencats.org/foster-a-cat/.   Thank you!  (Foster:  Trainer; Marie J.)November 9, 2025, 12:49 pm

This little girl has a very very calm, sweat, laid-back personality.  Elizabeth loves her string toys and playing with her litter mates.

Elizabeth lives with her 4 litter mates plus a few house cats and lastly an extra-large house dog (over 100 lbs). Elizabeth gets along with everyone in the house. I would even say she is good with children too. Elizabeth is good with: Children: Absolutely. She loves everyone! Cats: She loves feline friends!!! Dogs: Yes! Elizabeth lives with an extra-large house dog and she does not mind at all. -        Spayed. -        FeLV/ FIV: Neg. -        Litter Trained. -        Up to date on all shots. -        Flea preventative.
