Story
 Meet Toast . Toast is a gentle, sensitive girl whose world has been turned upside down. Right now, the busy rescue environment is overwhelming for her, and she's still learning that she's safe. While she may seem shy at first, underneath that cautious exterior is a cat who's simply looking for a place where she can finally relax. Toast would thrive as a barn cat, where she can enjoy the best of both worlds—a safe, secure indoor barn to call home and the freedom to explore the outdoors on her own terms. In return, she'll help keep rodents away while becoming part of your farm, stable, or country property. With patience, kindness, and time, Toast may surprise you. As she learns to trust, she has the potential to become a wonderful companion and could even grow into a loving family cat. If you're looking for a beautiful soul who simply needs a chance to feel safe again, Toast is waiting to find the place where she truly belongs.  Give Toast a home where she can build confidence, enjoy her independence, and discover that people can be trusted again. . Please contact info@forgottencats.org for more information.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Trainer)August 6, 2026, 7:11 pm

Kid- and Cat-Friendly!!!  Please meet Penelope!!!  Penelope aka Momma is the sweetest, young, dilute calico. She just weened her 3 kittens and is looking for her forever home. This girl will melt your heart. She loves attention, is well behaved and is very playful. She loves wand toys and tunnels. She will follow you from room to room. She is good with other cats, submissive not confrontational. She has a happy chirp and a soft meow. This lovely lady deserves a forever home. Penelope has been around all kinds of people.  She is gentle and just a sweet doll. She was introduced to a dog yesterday and was submissive and left the room. She would probably be fine with a dog that is not aggressive. Does Penelope sound like the kitty for you?   Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.

Hello!

Mrs. Witherspoon loves attention and greets you with a purr. She is energetic and has a bit of a mischievous streak. Mrs. Witherspoon is best friends with her brother Jeremiah and they are always wrestling or chasing each other. Although she is always up for a little play time, Mrs. Witherspoon likes to spend time with humans and will sit in your lap or lean against you when it’s time for a break. She loves ribbon teasers and other wand toys, cat tunnels, Mylar balls, and small stuffed toys. Mrs. Witherspoon prefers dry food (though she is willing to try canned food) and consistently uses the litter box. Jeremiah
