My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Pick me up, please! Friendly and loving boy!! Meet Scooter, the sweet tabby boy with a penchant for face rubs and a heart as big as his back paws!

Scooter has a new foster family! Let's check-in.

When we asked the Forgotten Cats' volunteer which cat we should foster, her first answer was “Scooter!” We didn’t go wrong, and neither will his forever family.

Scooter is the chillest and sweetest cat! We love him so much. He is definitely a people cat. He is always where ever we are. He isn’t really a furniture cat or a cozy cat-bed kinda guy-he loves sprawling on the floor for his cat naps. He does not sleep in the human bed at night. He silently slumbers ‘who-knows-where’ but is there to greet you when you wake up in the morning!

Scooter comes when you call him by name, or when you talk to him in your kitty voice. He loves to be pet and has a quiet purr that turns on instantly. He is one of the rare kitties who will let you rub his belly. He loves all people and isn’t skittish around kids, strangers or even the neighbor’s dog. He doesn’t mind being picked up and held.

Scooter is very playful, he loves a good spring or string toy. He uses his scratch post, his litter box, and enjoys dry food and wet food, too. Scooter had surgery on his eyes when he was rescued, and while we have had him, he had an eye infection which needed ointment. He takes the medication like a champ-barely show his displeasure, like some cats would. Good boy, Scooter!!

He LOVES to watch the gerbils. Sometimes he will bat his paw at the glass, but generally he just sits on the window sill or floor and observes. He is a great cat.

Whoever adopts Scooter will have the sweetest addition to their family.

An approved app is needed to meet cats that are with fosters & those that are in our clinic/shelters, but not to meet adoption center cats.

More about this rescue

Founded in 2003, Forgotten Cats, Inc. is the leading trap, neuter, vaccinate, return (TNVR) nonprofit in the region. Servicing Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey, Forgotten Cats specializes in TNVR in order to humanely reduce the homeless cat population. Valuing all lives, Forgotten Cats is a no kill organization.

Forgotten Cats’ TNVR services involve working with colony caregivers to identify all cats within a colony, after which we trap, transport, sterilize, vaccinate, recuperate, and return feral cats to caregivers. Our goal is to stabilize each colony and ensure zero population growth. We achieve this by trapping and sterilizing every single cat in the entire colony.

About 20 percent of the cats that enter our clinics each year are not feral. Stray cats, or homeless domesticated cats, and feral kittens under 12 weeks old, are held and placed into our adoption network. With ten off-site adoption centers, our dedicated staff and volunteers work hard to prepare our cats for adoption and ensure they go to loving, forever homes.

Forgotten Cats serves the community by offering affordable TNVR services, low cost spay/neuter services for pet & stray cats, and spay/neuter education.

Forgotten Cats has over 700 volunteers that are committed to helping this organization fulfill its mission. We receive no government funding, and depend solely on private donations, grants, fundraising events, and bequests to complete our mission.

Since 2003, Forgotten Cats has sterilized over 130,000 cats across the region, which has prevented the birth and suffering of millions of kittens. Additionally, we have placed over 14,000 cats into loving, forever homes. At our no-kill clinic/shelters, we welcome the FIV+ & FeLV+ cats, the blind, the 3-legged, the lost, those that have been abused, and those that have been abandoned. We offer love and hope to the Forgotten Cats from all walks of life.

Vision:
We envision a day when kittens are no longer born on the streets but rather in loving homes to responsible owners.

Mission:
Our mission is to humanely reduce the homeless cat population and to stop the suffering of the thousands of kittens born to abandoned, homeless cats.

Not quite sure you are ready to be a full-time cat parent? Please consider our foster program! You can care for a cat/kitten for as little as two days, a couple of weeks, or longer. It's up to you. Please contact us! https://forgottencats.org/foster-a-cat/
