Story
Simcha's owner passed unexpectedly, and he and a second cat needed a new home on short notice. We've homed him for about six months now and are very fond of him, but ultimately he's too expensive for us (I was laid off a year ago now; any cat would be a lot, but he's a senior cat with a couple medications). He also doesn't quite get along with the other younger cat, which can be stressful. He's a real sweetheart, spends most of his days curling up and following sunbeams, though he does like to bother someone for some brushing once in a while. He's a little rickety and seemed quite nervous and solitary when he first moved in, but he's warmed up considerably since we've gotten to know him, especially since we got him to a vet and started managing his arthritis (I don't think he had great care in his previous home). We love him, but it's difficult to fit him into our lives right now, and we'd love to find him a home where he fits perfectly.

Story
Wolfgang – Available for Adoption "Rescue animals aren't broken; they've simply experienced more life than other animals. If they were human, we would call them wise. They would be the ones with the tales to tell and the stories to write, the ones dealt a bad hand who responded with courage. Don't pity them. Do something. Help a rescue. Donate. Volunteer. Foster. Adopt. But most of all be proud you have their greatness by your side." – Unknown We don’t know Wolfgang’s story, but we’re sure it was adventurous by the looks of him. He is now looking for his retirement home as he’s earned it. We haven’t tested him out with other cats just yet but he definitely loves his time with humans. All he is looking for is a couch and a lap. He’s not asking for much. We are still working on fattening him up. Wolfgang is approximately 10 years old, neutered, negative for FeLV and FIV and up-to-date on his vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting him, contact Boston's Forgotten Felines on Facebook or at catadoptions@bostonsforgottenfelines.org

Story
Grey – Available for Adoption Grey is a 9-year-old male grey & white cat that prefers to be your one & only. He is very shy, but often comes out when people he is familiar with walk in the room - though doesn’t like to be approached quickly. He likes to be pet, can be picked up (to be moved, not held standing up - though he’ll sit next to people, and occasionally on a lap). He is food motivated, loves cat nip and is very interested in feather toys - though not ones that make noise. Grey along with his sibling Sweet Pea (who neither want to live with each other) were rescued by a good Samaritan after they ran out of a dumpster that was recently delivered to her Quincy home from Chelsea for a construction job. The pair along with a third feral kitten were trapped and vetted by BFF in 2016 and returned to the finder. Due to her recent passing, the pair are now looking for a new home (the 3rd cat is staying with the finder’s daughter.) Grey is approximately 9 years old, neutered and negative for FeLV and FIV. If you are interested in meeting him, contact Boston's Forgotten Felines on Facebook or at catadoptions@bostonsforgottenfelines.org

Story
Oakley & Splinter – Soon to Be Available for Adoption Oakley and Splinter are two sisters from different misters. They were found together in a lumberyard, giving them their wood-inspired names, which also make them sound like 90’s skater girls. The two keep each other endlessly entertained by staging dramatic play battles. They can often be found cuddling, too. Oakley is about one month younger than Splinter. She’s a gray tuxedo who is as sweet as can be. Oakley loves curling up into a perfect circle on soft blankets, playing with her wand toy and ball tower, and purring like a monster truck at the mere mention of food. She’d do anything for a Klondike bar—sorry, a Churu—including climb into your lap and push her sister out of the way, paw straight to the face. Oakley is shy but starting to warm up to her foster parents. She rubs on their legs when it’s time for food, and she spends most afternoons sleeping atop a futon while her foster mom works. She very happily accepts pets and scritches if they’re accompanied by a treat. Splinter is a tabby with a white chest and face, with adorable freckles on her cheeks. She came to her foster home a little spicy but has since mellowed out quite a lot, although she’s more timid than her sister is. Her preferred method of communication is hissing: that’s how she tells you that you’re in her space, you startled her, or you are NOT being fast enough with the food, dang it! Splinter loves a Churu, playtime with her wand toy and her spring, pouncing on digital rats, and hiding out in blanket forts she makes herself. Oakley (approximately 3.5 months old) & Splinter (approximately 5 months old) are scheduled to be fixed and vetted. If you are interested in meeting them, contact Boston's Forgotten Felines on Facebook or at catadoptions@bostonsforgottenfelines.org

Story
12-11-25 MoMo for short (Marshmellow) is a lovely, wonderful older kitten we took in in June along with his sister. After months of trying to get them adopted as a pair, we split them up when a good home was found for his adorable sister. MoMo is a love, he wants to sit on your lap, and purr. He is only 9 months old so he does like to play and would benefit from other cat-company. He is neutered, tested for diseases and parasites, and vaccinated. PLEASE EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION!
