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.

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?

Story

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?

Story

Tako. 8-12 months old. FS DSH. Calico/tabby? She's everything.. Kid/cat/dog friendly. Extremely affectionate with people. Kid-, Dog- and Cat Friendly!!! Hi! I'm Takoyaki, and my foster parents call me Tako! I'm an affectionate and rambunctious young lady, who did not let my broken leg slow me down! My time at ACCT was running short. Luckily for me, a nice lady saw me and wanted to take me home with her, shattered right femur and all! And after assessments by multiple surgeons, it turned out that my leg did not need to be amputated. It could heal on its own, and I would be left with a minor limp. I love people, dogs, and other cats in that order. My biggest flaw is my love for human food....I will break into anything I can for a bite of your food. I am really good at playing by myself, in fact so much so, that all string toys must be hidden overnight as I tried to amputate my left leg with a wand toy on my first night in foster care. I like to use my litter box properly, and I'm already gentle when playing with others. Her foster said, 'Leg's all healed, wouldn't recommend super high jumps for a few more months, but she's good to go. Yes, friendly with kids; yes, friendly with dogs, I'll try to get some pics of her with my 85lb American bulldog..they're very cute together.' From Tako: DO NOT ADOPT ME IF YOU LIKE TO HAVE A COLD AND EMPTY LAP. Do YOU need a lap warmer? Please ask to meet Tako! She is now playing and keeping laps warm in our Brandywine PetSmart adoption center.

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

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.
