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.

Lap Cat alert!!  Chelsea arrived through our doors with her two babies, Peaches and Rosalina. She has been a loving and attentive mom. Chelsea runs to us seeking attention when we enter the room. She jumps in our laps, nudging us for infinite pets. In addition to her unique fur color, Chelsea’s tail loops like a curled ribbon to show she feels safe in your presence.   She is a very calm cat who would love to be your one and only companion, having all of the love to herself.  She is ready to get out of the cat room in her foster family’s home and have more rooms to explore with you. Chelsea is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations.  She uses the litter box without issue and eats both wet and dry food.  She tolerates nail clippings. Chelsea was playing in her foster family’s home. She is now looking forward to your visit in our Willow Grove PetSmart adoption center.

Hi!  My name is Sally, and I am about 4 months old as of 9/8/26.  I am a happy and playful kitten. I get along great with my siblings, Linus and Lucy – we play a lot together. I like being held, but I’m also fine on my own.  I’m just beautiful, and I want to go home with a good family who will love me. The sibs are playing with their foster family.  Their foster commented, 'Linus and Lucy are special buddies, but any combination of the three would be good to adopt in pairs. They are all super sweet and playful.'  Please submit a no-obligation application for a meet and greet or to adopt: https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!

Story
Meet Meesha ! Hi, I’m Meesha! I’m a petite young cat who became a mama when I was still a kitten myself. I’ve been through a lot, but I’m still a playful, loving girl. I love looking out windows, playing with my mouse and ball tower, and enjoying a good meal. . Right now, I’m looking for a safe, loving forever home where I can finally be a young cat again—play, relax, be spoiled, and feel safe indoors. I’m not a big fan of boy cats right now, so I may do best as your one-and-only kitty or with slow introductions. I’ve had my babies, and now it’s my turn to be loved. Will you be my forever family? ? Meesha is about 1-2 years old and was playing with her foster family.  She is now playing in our Middlerown PetSmart adoption center. Please ask to spend some time with her!

Story
This kitten has just arrived! They have come to us on transport from a shelter partner, were found as stray, or surrendered to our care. When kittens arrive to us we are typically unsure of their full background, litter box habits, how they are with handling, or how much socialization with humans/animals they have received. Kittens require a significant amount of patience and training to learn how to behave properly in a home. The first few months of having a kitten is a critical time to improve socialization and help your kitten become confident. Exposing your kitten to all kinds of touch, sounds, people, and animals can ensure a well-socialized adult cat. Remember, kittens aren’t born knowing how to live in a human’s world, it is up to you to teach them how to make good decisions in a positive and caring manner. The more positive interactions they have in their first year of life will set them up for better behavior in the future. 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.

Hello! I'm Dr. Love, a handsome 3-year-old black and white tuxedo boy with a big personality to match my dapper looks. 💕 I'm neutered, affectionate, and absolutely love being a lap cat — I'll happily spend hours with you while making biscuits and purring up a storm.

Story
This young lady has bold tabby markings and beautiful golden eyes. Although Lily Pad has a calm and friendly disposition, she needs play time with humans each day so she can release her youthful energy. She enjoys having access to a window so she can monitor neighborhood activities and wildlife. Lily Pad loves cat tunnels, ribbon teasers and other wand toys, and stuffed catnip toys that she can bite and kick. She likes to sharpen her claws on sisal rope scratching posts.
