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.

 CALLIE — Looking for Her Second Forever . Sweet Callie thought she had already found her forever. For the past three years, she had a home and a mom who loved her. Sadly, when her mom had to move into a nursing home, Callie was returned to Forgotten Cats, as were Tabitha and Amelia.  (Tabitha and Amelia have found a new family). Now this beautiful girl is trying to understand why everything familiar has suddenly changed. Despite all she has been through, Callie remains an incredibly sweet and loving kitty. She enjoys being petted, loves attention, and is happiest when someone takes the time to sit with her and remind her that she is loved. . After three years in a home, being back at Forgotten Cats is understandably confusing for Callie. What she needs most is someone who will give her the security and love she once knew—and show her that she can have a forever again. Callie has already lost her home once. Let's make sure the next one truly lasts forever. . Could you be Callie's second chance? 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)November 2, 2026, 6:00 am

Meet Chelsea! If you are looking for a stunning, independent feline who knows her worth and brings just the right balance of fun and chill, Chelsea is your girl. With her gorgeous torbie tuxedo coat—a beautiful mix of colorful tortoiseshell-tabby patches paired with a dapper tuxedo white chest and paws—she is a true showstopper. Chelsea’s Perfect Vibe: ·   Playtime Enthusiast: Don’t let her sleek, calm demeanor fool you—break out a wand toy with feathers or strings, and you’ll see her inner athlete shine! ·   Affection on Her Terms: Chelsea loves human company and will happily strut over to request pets when she's feeling sweet. Once she’s had her fill of love, she gracefully steps away to go do her own thing. She’s an independent queen who appreciates a respectful companion. ·     Queen of the Castle: Chelsea prefers to be the one and only cat in the household. She wants all your devotion (and best sunny nap spots) reserved just for her! ·   Good with older children:  She would do wonderfully in a home with older children who understand feline body language and respect her boundaries. Chelsea offers the best of both worlds: a fun, interactive playmate when it’s game time, and a quiet, low-maintenance roommate when it’s time to relax. Give this lovely lady her forever throne, and she’ll reward you with loyalty, entertainment, and endless charm.

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.

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.

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.
