Thor loves to run around and play. He loves to play around with my dogs. He is a curious cat. If there is something new he wants to know what it is. If there is a box he is in it. If the box is not open he will find a way to open the box. He has a brother (Nemo) and sister (Tinkerbell). if the adopter would like all three that would be ideal but also willing to find them homes individually. If you are interested please let me know and I can send you pictures of the others. Thor is a orange copper color, Tinkerbell is white with a little orange on her tail, Nemo is orange.

Story
Sweetie is a sweet senior that is about 8 years old. This gorgeous pewter gray shorthair girl was rescued when found living outside with a colony of stray & feral cats (hence the tipped ear). She can be timid, but once she has your trust, she becomes friendly & affectionate. She will even follow you around, rub against your legs, & beg to be petted. She is very playful, especially enjoying ribbons & shoestrings. She loves to roll around on her back & show her tummy. Sweetie is seeking a calm, low-key home without dogs or children. Her ideal owner would be patient & experienced with cats. She has been spayed, tested, microchipped, & vaccinated. If you are interested in bringing Sweetie home, applications can be submitted @ http://www.forgotten4paws.com/adoption-application.html

Story
This adorable shorthair black & white kitten is Almond, and he’s still waiting to find his forever home! If you’re unable to adopt or foster him, please share this information! He’s currently living in a temporary foster home in Columbus, OH, and he’s approximately 1 year old. Almond has been neutered & vaccinated. He tested positive for FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus), and will require a home without other cats or a home with other FIV+ cats. If you aren’t familiar with FIV, please research it online or discuss it with your vet. Forgotten 4 Paws has adopted many FIV+ cats over the last 25 years, and they have had amazing lives! If you live in Columbus, OH or a surrounding area, and you’re interested in fostering or adopting Almond, please submit an application via http://www.forgotten4paws.com/adoption-application.html

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Checkers is seeking a special forever home! She and her siblings were rescued when found outdoors, and she is the last one awaiting adoption. Checkers is currently living in a foster home in the Columbus area, and she enjoys playing with the other cats/kittens in her foster home. Her hobbies include playing with strings, looking out windows, and watching YouTube videos featuring birds and other critters. Checkers also loves to eat, as evident by her slightly chonky figure. This adorable girl is very playful and curious, and she almost always has a wide-eyed expression. She doesn’t often meow, but when she’s happy or excited, she’ll make a chirping type of sound. Checkers has made a lot of progress in her foster home, but she can still be a little rough around the edges. If she gets scared or overstimulated, she may playfully swat or nip at hands. She also sometimes chews on her cardboard cat house, and she occasionally forgets that she’s not supposed to use her murder mittens on the carpet. While Checkers has an amazing personality, she can be timid initially and does require time to warm up to new people. When first rescued, she was spicy, and she would hide and hiss. However, now she climbs in her foster mom’s lap, purrs, rolls around, and gives nuzzles and head butts. Due to her personality, Checkers is best suited for a quiet home without children or dogs. Her ideal person will have experience with cats and be loving, patient, and understanding. Checkers is approximately 10 months old, and she has been fully vetted - tested, spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated. If you're located in Ohio (preferably near/in Columbus), and you’re interested in adopting Checkers, please submit an application online via www.forgotten4paws.com/adoption-application.html. Applicants can also request to foster-to-adopt (meaning a cat can be fostered on a trial basis before making a decision to adopt). If you have any questions, send an email to contactusforgotten4paws@yahoo.com.

Story
Angel’s siblings (Lilo and Stitch) have already been adopted, and now she’s ready to find her forever home! This 9 month-old petite black kitten is ready to steal your heart! Angel likes to be held like a baby, and she will headbutt you when she wants attention. Full of curiosity and ready for adventure, she enjoys exploring new places and toys. She’s sweet and playful but can be timid when first meeting new people. Once she has time to warm up to a new environment/person, she will cuddle and purr. Angel gets along with other cats, but she is best suited for a quiet home without dogs or young children. This sleek mini panther has been fully vetted - tested, neutered, and microchipped, and vaccinated. If you're located in Ohio (preferably near/in Columbus), and you’re interested in meeting/adopting Angel, please submit an application online via www.forgotten4paws.com/adoption-application.html. If you have any questions, send an email to contactusforgotten4paws@yahoo.com.

Story
Storm and Rogue are a brother/sister pair originally adopted together at 6 weeks. They have always lived together and with larger dogs. Rogue (male) is affectionate and sweet, while his sister Storm is well, a bit of a "storm". I've recently had the last of my adult children move out and am finding it difficult to get home early enough to spend time with them.
