Story
 Truffles – Sweet, Shy, and Full of Promise . Truffles is a beautiful, quiet girl with the softest expression and the gentlest soul. . She may be a little scared in her cage right now—and who can blame her? It’s a big, unfamiliar world—but even through her shyness, you can see her curiosity shining through. Truffles wants attention and will peek out, watching you closely, quietly hoping for kindness and reassurance. She’s the kind of cat who just needs a little time and patience to feel safe… and when she does, her sweet personality will truly blossom. With a calm home and a loving heart, Truffles will grow into a deeply devoted and affectionate companion. If you believe the shy ones are often the most special, Truffles is waiting just for you. . She is now playing with her foster family and new pal Brick.  Please ask about her!  Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Shelby F.)April 28, 2026, 7:29 pm

Story
Meet Hypatia!  Hypatia is a young, gentle Calico/white mama who’s ready for a fresh start. She was found surrounded by unfixed males and thankfully rescued by a foster volunteer, who made sure she was spayed and safe. It’s clear she was once someone’s pet—she’s incredibly sweet, trusting, and comfortable with people.Shes got the most beautiful big golden eyes as well.  Hypatia has a curious spirit and a playful side. She enjoys exploring her surroundings, chasing toys, and soaking up affection—especially head pets, which she absolutely loves. Now that her days of surviving are behind her, Hypatia is ready to be cherished in a forever home where she can relax, play, and be loved the way she deserves.

Sunflower – A Little Blossom Waiting to Shine . Meet Sunflower, a beautiful young calico kitten with soft, delicate coloring and a gentle spirit. Weighing just 4.9 pounds as of 4/16/2026, she’s a tiny girl with so much love waiting to bloom. Right now, Sunflower is still adjusting to the shelter environment. Being in a cage feels a bit scary for her, and she’s not quite sure what to make of it all. But underneath that uncertainty is a sweet, kind girl who just needs a little time, patience, and love to feel safe. With a calm home and a caring heart, Sunflower will begin to open up and show her true, loving personality. She’s the kind of kitty who will quietly blossom into a devoted companion once she knows she’s home. Sunflower isn’t meant for the cage life—she’s meant for a warm bed, gentle voices, and a family to call her own. Could you be the one to help this little flower bloom? .

Bonded with Drifter!!  Please extend your gentle hand to Francine!  Francine is a uniquely beautiful calico girl with soulful eyes and a gentle heart just waiting to shine. This sweet girl is still a little shy as she adjusts to being back at the adoption center, but each day she’s bravely coming out of her shell and showing more of her loving personality.   Once she feels safe, Francine will come out of her shell — she’ll happily soak up all the affection you’re willing to give. Beneath her timid exterior is a deeply affectionate companion who just needs a patient, understanding home to truly blossom.   Francine was returned through no fault of her own and is feeling a bit unsure right now. Thankfully, she’s found comfort in her friend Drifter (FCID# 02/02/2026 - 12) at the Brookhaven PetSmart Adoption Center. Their bond has helped boost her confidence, and it’s been so special to see her begin to feel safe again.  At this point, they need to be adopted together.   This sweet girl would thrive in a calm, loving home where she can continue to grow at her own pace and finally feel secure. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion with a lot of love to give, Francine may be your perfect match.   ✨ Please ask to meet Francine and Drifter at the Brookhaven PetSmart Adoption Center!  Thank you for helping cats like Francine find their forever homes.   Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Not ready to adopt?  Please consider fostering:  https://forgottencats.org/foster-a-cat/.   Thank you!  (Foster:  Trainer)      April 28, 2026, 7:29 pm

Story
This new friend has just arrived! They have come to us either as a transfer from another shelter, being found as a stray, or have been surrendered to us by their owner. When our friends are new to us, we are typically unsure of their full background, litter box habits, comfort with handling, or experience with other pets or children. Our staff will spend some time reviewing any information provided by previous owners and spend some time with our new friend so that we can better update their biography. 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.

This friend has just arrived because their owner could no longer keep them. While owners can provide some history on their pets, our medical and behavioral teams will still evaluate them. Dogs that have lived in homes previously typically have some training established, but we cannot guarantee that those behaviors will remain consistent in a new home environment. They are pending interactions with other animals at the shelter until they have been cleared by our vet. Our staff will spend some time getting to know them and we will update their bio with more information as we learn. If you are interested in adopting this dog, 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 dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match!
