Story
Mittens is a wonderful, loving, large cat. He is about 27 lbs and 10 yrs old. He is declawed and has never been an outdoor cat. He loves people and kids! He greets everyone who comes in the door. Unfortunately, our health is too bad and we are unable to care for him. He has occasional poop accidents but, never urine. Mittens is very playful and friendly. He would make great companion for someone and is FREE to a good loving home.

Story
Hello!  Lester is a very friendly boy, and we are looking for a 2-month, catless, foster home for him.  Lester tested positive for FIV and FeLV.  We are not worried about him testing positive for FIV, but FeLV - feline leukemia - is VERY contagious to only other felines. Lester will be tested again for FeLV and FIV in 2 months, but until then, he has to be in a cage, isolated from our other cats.  Are you able to give this sweet boy a temporary home until he is retested in mid-June?  He would love to be able to move around and socialize with you.  He loves to be petted, too. Thank you for considering.  Please submit our no-obligation foster application: https://forgottencats.org/foster-a-cat/.   Thank you!  (Foster:  Trainer)April 21, 2025, 6:36 am
