Harriet • Adult • F
Hi! My name is Harriet and Im about 3 years old. I was found completely emaciated after giving birth to a litter of kittens outside. My babies and I went to live with a foster Mom. At first, I was very protective of my babies and was afraid someone would hurt them. But, with the help of my foster family, I learned to trust humans again. Im really sweet and loving and cuddly now. I adore having my chin scratched and love getting kisses and nose nudges. I always greet my foster Mom at the door and I love to sleep curled up next to her or on her lap. Im still not crazy about being picked up though but will tolerate it once I get to know you. And when I want to be left alone I will grumble to let you know. I have been introduced to other cats but want to be a dominant cat. So, I would be best as the only cat or with a few very easygoing animals.

Lydia • Adult • F
Can you imagine being outside in a winter snowstorm with no food or shelter? That was me. As I searched for shelter, I got caught under something sharp, and suffered a wound on my backside that required 30 stitches. I could have died, except a kind woman who had been watching out for me, found me and took me in. I was taken for medical care, and then went to live with my foster mom. For the longest time, I was so shy I would not come out of my cage, and of course my wound had to heal. Now I am healthy and secure, but I need a forever home. I get along with other cats, and I have the freedom to drink out of the faucet, which I love to do. I am easy to care for; I have lots of love to give; and I want to be your best friend forever. Please take me home.

Hilda • Adult • F
I am the most laid back cat you will every know. I don't like to be in a cage therefore have not been able to be at the PetsMart so people can see me. I am hoping that my pictures will entice you to want to meet me in person. I have been with other cats and get along fine. I do have beautiful light green eyes that really don't show up in pictures like they do in person. I am waiting for my forever family to take me home so I can settle into a nice routine.

Marilyn • Young • F
I am one lucky girl, a momma girl. I am a year old black female that started life outside without enough food or water, and then I got pregnant. I had 4 kittens, but I could not give them the nourishment they needed, although I tried. We were all rescued when they were 3 weeks old; I had 3 boys and a girl. We went to a foster home, where my foster mom took care of us the best she could. Two of my boys died early, and my girl died after 10 weeks. I was very sad, but my surviving son turned out to be a healthy, handsome boy that was adopted. I have shared my life since with 4 black kittens (Corey, Watson, Bonnie & Clyde) in foster care, and have been momma to them. I am shy, but my foster mom has helped me be trusting. I am loving, and with patience I will learn to show my love and gratitude. I will give my heart, if you will give me a home and love.b/> Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application?

Willa • Young • F
I am a young kitty, a tabby/tortiseshell (aka torbie), about a year old. I was living with a colony of cats by the Brandywine River in Wilmington; I've never had a home or someone to love me. Luckily, several people would feed us, and I got used to them. They were able to rescue us before the summer. I was rescued with another cat I knew, which I liked because I was scared. We were in foster care together, then he went to live in his forever home. I am just getting used to my foster mom, who talks to me and gives me attention, even though I am still a bit shy. I like other cats, and might be good in a barn or a place where I can come out of my shell. I will be ever so grateful if that special someone would take me in and let me learn to be a loving girl, that I know deep down I am.

Waldo • Senior • M
Waldo was living on the streets of north Philly before coming to Forgotten Cats. He found shelter & food for about 3 months on the front porch of a caring family who felt sorry for him. They contacted a Forgotten Cats volunteer who took him in. He was checked for a microchip but none was found so now Waldo is looking for a special someone to share the rest of his years with. Waldo is a elderly guy, he's about 10-12 years old. He loves sitting and looking out the windows in his current foster home and can often be found stretched out on the back of the couch, lounging in the sunshine. He does not like the other cats or the dog in his foster home, so he would be happier as an only pet. He loves people & kids, loves to be petted. Waldo would be a great companion kitty.

Molly • Adult • F
My name is Molly. I was found in Willow Grove, PA, and was brought to Forgotten Cats where I was spayed and given shots. I am in foster care with other cats. I am shy because being out on my own scared me and I am learning to trust again. I can be petted and held - I just need time to be comfortable again. Although I am FIV+, I am not sick or contagious. I will live a normal life if kept inside and taken to the vet regularly.

Buddy • Adult • M
Buddy came to his foster home in February in a snow storm. He is a large bundle of love who loves to rub up against you and be petted. He'll make this cute little "mew" sound". Buddy needs to learn to trust humans again and will do well in a home where he is the only pet, with no small children as he is still timid and does not like sudden movements or loud noises. Can you open your heart and home up and give buddy his new forever home?

Honey • Adult • F
I am a very nice cat looking for a loving home! Forgotten Cats saved me from life on the streets. I was someones pet until they put me out. I just dont understand why because I am a really good girl. Never mind about that, I just want to forget that part of my life, move on and find a family who will love me forever. My foster mommy thinks I am pretty and says that I am a love bug, always kneading and longing for pets on the head. I always run over to her when she enters the room. The only thing is that I dont like to be picked up, it makes me nervous and sometimes I swat (with nails in) if you try to pet me under my chin or chest. That will probably change in time once I gain full trust and feel completely secure. Do I sound like the kind of cat that would make you happy and enhance your life? If you adopt me, I will love you forever and ever!

Angel • Adult • F
Hi! My name is Angel. I am so lucky and thankful that Forgotten Cats rescued me from life on the streets! As you can see by my ruptured eye, I didnt do very well on my own. My foster mommy would like to tell you a little bit about me . . . Angel is an absolutely precious and beautiful petite cat! When I first brought her home she was lethargic and not feeling very well at all. After about one week of love and care she became a happy and loving little girl. Angel is so sweet! She loves to sit on my lap and get pets on her head and under her chin and chest. She purrs and kneads the entire time. Her content little face will melt your heart! Are you the person who will give Angel the love and care she deserves? She will love you forever and ever!

Stewart • Adult • M
I am a big handsome tabby, don't you think? I was abandoned on the streets of Philadelphia, and had a hard time finding food and keeping from being attacked by cats and dogs on the street. I was taken in by a store owner, and became the store cat. After a few months the store closed, and I was taken to the SPCA, where I was expected to be put down because I am older and am FIV+. My luck held and I was rescued, given medical care and shelter until I was taken in by my foster mom. I live with other cats, and get along fine with them. I am initially shy around people, but I soon come around. I would love to be in a forever home, where I can have a quiet space, and someone I can love and who loves me. Don't worry about my FIV+ condition. I am not sick, contagious or need to have special medications. I need to stay indoors, and go to the vets once a year. Please consider adopting me. You won't regret it.

Misty • Adult • F
Russian Blue mix, Female, Approximately 5 years old. I was living outdoors in a river side community where it was cold in the winter, but nice in the summer. I am a very friendly cat and love to bask in the sunlight especially near the restaurant deck outdoors. But once spring came, so did the people, and I loved them, and they loved me and my daily visits. But the owners didn't like me coming around and they threatened to hurt me by heaving me into the Delaware river. Fortunately, a friend of Forgotten Cats rescued me and found me my temporary foster home. Due to a blend of circumstances and my charm, I have been with my foster Mom for 1 year now. Hey, who's going to argue, I have my own room, my own bed, food and water and she sleeps with me a couple times a week. But she can't keep me and continue to help others. And she knows I am sooooo adoptable. So I am willing to share my charm with you and show you what a love bug I am. Pet my head and I will flop by your side (yes literally FLOP over). I must admit, like many cats, I do have a threshold level where too much petting starts to saturate me, but my wagging tail will signal you when I have reached that level. If you ignore it, I may offer you a "love bite". If you let me sleep with you, I offer a variety of belly/back massages (kneading with tender love). Please think about me............a mature appreciative kitty.

Isabella • Adult • F
Foster Mom's Report: I was asked to foster and evaluate Isabella as she was frightened at the adoption center and would strike at the volunteers and other cats. She was found on the street so we had no history, nor did we have any way of knowing how long she'd been out there (or what she had been through out there!). We had to consider the possibility that Isabella would be a "barn cat" - so I brought her home to see if I could get her to come out of her shell. I am EXTREMELY excited to report that Isabella is a LOVEABLE, AFFECTIONATE, SWEETHEART! After a brief introduction period, she became comfortable with my dog. However, my dog is nearly 12 and is quite lazy. If she were a jumpy puppy, I doubt Isabella would have been able to feel comfortable. Today (2 months later) they sleep in the same room, sit next to each other and walk past each other with no issues. If she is scared, she'll just find a quiet spot in a room or in the basement and hang out there for a while. Isabella is vocal when you come home, quite happy to see you! She'll rub her face right into yours and settle in close to you if you're watching TV, etc. I have been able to pick her up with no issues. I have petted her aggressively to try and test her threshold and she hasn't swatted at me one single time - not in all of the time I have had her at home. She is content, sweet and full of purrs. IN SUMMARY: Isabella will be a perfect addition to any family that doesn't have aggressive or overly-energetic pets or children or a generally chaotic atmosphere. She just needs to realize that she's safe. Once you get to spend some time with her and you get to see first hand how loveable she is, you will fall in love with her. It's sad to think of what she must have had to endure out there. But if you give her a chance, you will not be disappointed in her disposition at all. She just wants to be close to someone who loves her!

Dusty • Adult • M
I am a 7 year old male who was put outside when my owners moved. The neighbors watched out for me, but could not keep other outdoor cats from attacking me. They finally had me rescued by Forgotten Cats, and I am now in foster care with other cats. I adjust easily, and get along with people and other animals. I am affectionate, and will sit in your lap. I love to be petted almost as much as eat; I do love my food. I am not agressive, and will groom the other cats. Because of being attacked, I am FIV+. I am not sick, however, and need no special medications. I need to be kept indoors, given a steady diet, and taken to the vets once a year. Please give me a new home!

Lester • Adult • M
I am a 3 year old handsome tuxedo. I was owned once, but was abandoned with a cat colony. I guess my owners thought I could survive with them, but I had no idea how to fend for myself. I was always given food, shelter and care. I assume they couldn't afford me anymore. I was constantly attacked by the alpha cat in the colony, and when the colony was trapped by Forgotten Cats they could tell that I was not feral, but domesticated, so I went to live with me foster mom. I get along with other cats and adjusted easily to my new environment. I loved to play and I also love attention. Because I was attacked by the main cat in the colony, I became FIV+. I am not sick, however, and need no special medications. I need to be kept indoors, given a steady diet, and taken to the vets once a year. Please give me a new home.

Mona • Adult • F
I am a 3 year old that has been owned twice. My first owner put me out when I had kittens. My kittens and I were put in a laundry basket and set out on a street corner in Chester, PA. Luckily we were rescued the day we were put out, but I was frantic trying to care for my babies. They were all adopted, and went to live with my foster mom until I was chosen to be a companion to a woman whose dog had passed. I spent a fun year with her, but she had to give me up because of health reasons. I am an affectionate, active and faithful little girl. I am FIV+, but I am not sick or contagious, and need no special medications. I will live a long, normal life with you if you keep me inside and take me to the vets annually. Please give me a chance to show you love and loyalty. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application? Adoption Application

Hi there! I am a two year old tuxedo male who lived caged up in a hoarder's house for a number of months. I was cared for but never got any exercise or much attention. I started licking all my hair off, but it is growing back. I am in foster care now, and have other kitties to play with. My foster mom gives me lots of attention and pets me, which I love. I will be your constant companion. I adjust easily to a new environment and have no health issues. I am FIV+, but I am healthy and not contagious. I need no special medications, but I do need to stay indoors and taken to the vets annually. I will give you lots of love, if you give me a forever home.

Annie • Adult • F
Annie was a undernourished mom nursing two tiny kittens when she came to Forgotten Cats from the streets of North East, Maryland. A year of two ago, she was a kitten herself who belonged to people who were visiting the area on vacation, but she was left behind to fend for herself when they returned home. Annie was a wonderful mother to not only her own kittens, but another orphaned litter as well. She taught them how to be good companion kitties so they could be adopted. Although her kittens are grown and gone, Annie is still a young, playful cat who deserves a loving forever home of her own. She is a gentle, loving lady, who is well behaved and gets along well with other cats. She is a charming feline therapist who loves to sit next to you and purr away your stress.

George • Adult • M
George was abandoned in a Wilmington, DE park and rescued from what would have been a harsh winter for him outside. He went to live with a woman whose cat had passed away. This was a good life until the woman became ill and could no longer care for George. George is good with other cats, and loves people. His long hair is soft, and he rarely sheds. George loves to be brushed, and is fond of sitting on the sofa next to a person. George is a special needs cat, meaning that he is FIV+, having been bitten while he was outside. George is the picture of health, and if kept indoors and given lots of TLC, he will give loyalty and affection for a long time. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application?

Henry • Adult • M
When I lived outside it was tough. I always had to compete for any food I could get (hence I really like to eat now), and never got as much love as I wanted. I am a big-boned young boy (1-3 years) who foster mom thinks is an old soul because I am so very mellow for a young cat. I am extremely lovable and have a wonderful rumbling deep purr, and soft little trilling voice. I love to just be close to you and get loving, brushing, and scratches. If you want to nap together, Ill cuddle up right in the curve of your stomach and keep you warm. While I soon will meet the others cats here, I seem very laid back about them. As long as I can be with you, everything will be OK. Foster mom doesnt have a dog, so I havent had a chance to show how I like them, but I am so mellow and easy going, I bet I would be just fine. On occasion, I can get over stimulated with too much petting, and give you love bites. When my tail starts to twitch, you will know to stop petting me for a while. But, that doesnt happen often. Do you have a heart big enough to take me home to be with you. At the top of my wish list is a family with a sunny, happy home to be part of. Please come and meet me, you will fall in love, I promise. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application? Adoption Application

Erica • Adult • F
Erica is a very pretty 4-5 year old platinum tortie. Erica was part of a trapping project in a very bad area where homeless cats were victims of terrible cruelty . When she came into foster she was malnourished, dirty and very defensive. Over the past few months Erica has rebounded and is realizing that she doesnt need to fight for her life every day. It has been wonderful to watch her transformation. At this time she is getting better with other cats and dogs but I do think shed be most happy as an only pet. She loves to be near you, loves to be petted but not held. I expect that as times goes by she will become even more affectionate. Please consider Erica, she deserves the best, she has been through so much. She is spayed and up to date on her vaccines. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application? Adoption Application

Bella is a 5 year old black and white cat. She is Dakotas sister. They lost their home due to allergies. Bella is initially shy & reserved. Once she warms up she is very affectionate and likes to be held and petted as much as possible. She is very gentle and well mannered. You can hear her purr from across the room. Her face is one of the most beautiful Ive seen, with her perfect pink nose. Bella had to have a few teeth pulled so will need regularly monitoring and care of her teeth. She should eat a dental type of dry food. She loves her brother and since they have been lifelong companions, they would do best staying together. Please consider Bella, her name fits her, inside and out. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application? Adoption Application

Beauty • Senior • F
Beauty is a wonderful senior girl. She has been aged at 10+ years. Somehow, at her age ,she was left homeless and on the street. Luckily, she was brought to Forgotten Cats. People that have adopted senior pets know how rewarding it is. There is just something extra special about them. Beauty is a little chubby after her time in the clinic so she is working on that with some light exercise and reduced portions. She does have arthritis so will need some simple,inexpensive interventions for that, just like a person with arthritis. She does take a glucosamine supplement daily and has a nice soft bed for extra comfort.. She loves to be brushed.. She is a " talker" and has a cute husky voice. Beauty is a mellow, perfectly mannered kitty. She seems to enjoy the company of other cats and even tolerates a pesty chihuahua that tries to steal her food when he can. She would be a perfect addition to a quieter home. She likes to be held like a baby and have her chest rubbed. While you won't see a lot of action from Beauty, what you will get is gentleness, appreciation and love from a kitty that so deserves the same in her golden years. She is spayed and current on vaccines. She will need health monitoring consistant with the needs of an aging pet. Please consider Beauty. Would you like to fill out an Adoption Application?
