Bento Male orange  Born 3/30/26   Kittens will receive two rounds of FVRCP before adoption. If a spay/neuter appt is scheduled, it is the adopter’s responsibility to keep said appt.

Solo kitten adoptions will be discouraged.   About Me: Bento has a very soft coat and will lay in your arms upside down purring. He is very loving and seems to have an extra brain cell or two from other orange cats. ##2794894##

Originally very standoffish and timid, she will happily come to foster parents for rubs and attention. She has a goofy way about her although she doesn’t know she is goofy. She does gain some extra confidence watching her siblings before she tries something. Loves to climb and pretend she is part squirrel. ##2794889##

Story
Meet Benjamin.   It’s hard to imagine that this handsome young fellow with his luxurious fluffy coat and adorable tufted ears was once struggling to survive on the streets. Whatever his past may have been, Benjamin hasn’t let it define him.   Today, he’s a happy, calm, and engaging young cat who enjoys being part of whatever you’re doing. He has a gentle, easygoing personality that makes him a pleasure to be around, and his soft, fluffy coat is just as comforting as his sweet nature.   Benjamin is ready to leave his days of uncertainty behind and discover what it’s like to have a family of his own. If you’re looking for a gentle companion with a loving spirit and a face you can’t help but smile at, Benjamin may be the perfect addition to your home.  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! July 20, 2026, 6:28 am
