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
Willow is approximately 5 years old and came to live with us when a previous owner in the military had to relocate. Willow was spayed and had her front claws removed before coming to live with us. She can be a cuddly cat but will nip( I hate to say bite because it doesn’t hurt or break skin) because she doesn’t have nails to warn or protect herself. She tends to latch onto a person and identifies them as her person. She does well with children and dogs and previously she was with other cats which she was fine with. There is a behavioral issue regarding litter box usage as she will pee in the litter box with no issue but rarely will poop in one. We have tried to work with her but at this point she is having to be secluded to one room locked away to avoid her pooping all over. She recently had her shots updated and an overall healthy checkup. We are away a lot and she is left home so she may do well with a household that could be present with her more.

Story
My mom had Lexi for 2 years and sadly she recently passed away. I have had Lexi ever since, I love her but my other cats do not get along with her. She can be shy, very sweet and sadly she hides most of the day because of them. She doesn’t have any behavior issues, doesn’t scratch furniture or bite, does extremely well with the litter box, etc. I would keep her but I’ve seen her much happier in a home without other cats. She has been around dogs too without issue. Shes around 4 or 5 years old and she does like to eat wet or dry food, she prefers to eat larger meals just twice a day or just to be free fed dry food. She’s not super anxious about eating. Shes very shy at first but she does like affection & doesn’t mind being picked up. One of her eyes weeps once or twice a week and the vets confirmed she just has an allergy

Story
Come meet Briar!! Briar is a calico with gorgeous markings. We are thinking Briar’s age is between 3 to 5 years old. I must say though this girl loves to play. Her favorite is chasing her feather string toys. Most of the day Briar spends sleeping in her window bed or watching out the window as life goes by outside. Briar has a laid-back personality. She loves being pet and brushed. If you scratch the sweet spot just above her tail – that’s it - you’re friends forever.  Briar currently lives with a few other cats in her foster home as well as an extra-large dog. Briar seems to be indifferent with the other cats and cautious with her movements around the dog. Briar loves people and getting all the attention. Could Briar fit into your family? Briar is good with: Children: Yes, but I would suggest older children  Cats: Maybe. Briar seems to avoid the other in her foster home. It doesn’t seem like she is looking for any feline friends at the moment.  Dogs: Briar currently lives with an extra-large (100 lb +) dog. She seems to be cautious around the dog but non-confrontational. But I think she would be okay with a smaller dog or one that is not interested in playing with her. Briar is playing with her foster family. Please submit a no-obligation application for a meet and greet or to adopt today: https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster: Sonia G.).January 9, 2026, 4:49 pm

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.)January 12, 2026, 3:10 pm

Head and chin rubs, please!!!  Meet Coral, a beautiful calico tripod.  Coral came to me after having her leg amputated to gain her confidence living without a leg, and she has blossomed being in a home. Having her leg amputated has not slowed her down at all. She jumps, runs, and plays without issue. Coral loves food, wand toys, soft toys she can easily grab and cat nip. To see her growth and love has been amazing. Coral loves having her head and chin rubbed as she sits there purring away. She loves her people so much and loves just laying near you. While the Queen prefers to rule the castle alone, she tolerates her very chill foster brother.  However, this sweet and sassy girl would love a home and human to call her own. Don’t hesitate to come meet this Queen in her castle. Please check out this video of Coral playing:  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/LB2e-AaQ0F8 .   She is a girl who just loves her humans and cuddling.  Coral is playing and cuddling with her foster family.  Her foster mom would like to add, 'Coral is guesstimated to be around 5-8 somewhere. I’ve only seen Coral go downstairs not upstairs. I don’t imagine an issue as Coral can run and jump as well. She actually has jumped on things and I’ve wondered how she made it up lol. I would imagine though she would not constantly be going up and down, but I could be wrong. Coral does not like my resident cats so she primarily stays on the lower level of the house.' Coral is 5-8 years old and has been waiting for her forever family for more than 2 years.  Could it be YOU?  Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Joanna S.)  December 28, 2025, 5:48 am

Story
ABOUT PRINCESS! Meet Princess, a girl that lives up to her name! This pretty lady was brought in to HAP as a stray, so we don't know much about her past. We assume she had a home at one point, because she certainly knows how to enjoy the finer things in life! She demands to live a life of luxury, and who are we to give her any less? She loves yummy treats, cozy beds, and all the catnip her little paws can get a hold of! She enjoys being around people, but mostly just so they'll coo over how beautiful she is! She will allow touches on her terms and her terms alone, but when she does, she is very affectionate! *Princess hates other cats, so she must be the only one in a home. She warmed up to a dog in her foster home, but it took a while and much groveling on the dog's end. We don't recommend children. *If you are interested in adopting this cat, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific cat but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! We may require all household members, including children, to come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, and a small bag of food to get you started.

ABOUT CHRISTMAS CHILI AND MISS KRAMPUS! Meet Christmas Chili and Miss Krampus, our pretty mamas! These two came to HAP at separate times, both strays with kittens in tow and both upset at being caged. After a few months of medication and socialization and not much progress, we decided to put the two ladies in a room together, as a last ditch effort. They immediately took to each other and have been inseperatable ever since! Now with each others support and comfort, they two have started to enjoy human attention a little more! Christmas Chili is the more outgoing of the two, she enjoys chirping and booping her human friends, once she gets used to them! Miss Krampus is more on the shy side, though she does enjoy playing with her human friends, as long as they keep their distance! *Christmas Chili and Miss Krampus both adore other cats! We don't recommend they go to a home with dogs or children.

ABOUT BROTHER AND SISSY! Meet Brother and Sissy, our shy duo! These sweeties had been living in a outdoor cat colony, which one of our amazing fosters had been caring for. When our foster was leaving the area, she couldn't bear to leave their fates to chance, so she brought them to HAP! This has been a pretty big adjustment for the two and they are scared of most things, but they've started to get used to the pampered indoor life! Brother is the more people friendly of the two. With a little TLC, he opens right up, ready to get some love! Sissy is more standoffish, but just as lovable. She enjoys watching more than she does interacting, but she's not opposed to a people watching buddy! *Brother and Sissy get along with other cats, but we don't recommend dogs or children, as they are very shy. **If you are interested in adopting this cat, please submit an adoption questionnaire!
