My story

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

Mix & Match Adults – Available for Adoption
** Leo ** Rooney ** Maisie **
Adopt one (if you have other cat(s) at home); Adopt two; Adopt three!

Leo, Rooney & Maisie were all rescued from different yards. They are semi-feral. They might start out as house spirits in your home (which means they will be hiding a lot), but after a while they will each be more out in the open in your home watching the world go by and hopefully in time they may eventually settle in and be friendly with their humans.

They each will need a quiet home. Not a home with lots of activity or lots of people coming in & out. They probably won’t do well in a home with young children. They can’t be an only kitty in a home. If you are unable to adopt 2 or 3 of these cats than the 1 cat needs a home with a friendly resident kitty to help show them the way.

Leo (black male) is the friendliest of the trio. He is very skittish and will run if you walk too close but does enjoy being pet if he is already settled in his bed. He enjoys playing with the wand toy and ball toy. He enjoys playing with other cats.

Rooney (orange female) will take a treat from your hand and accept scritches around her neck and ears. She now enjoys playing with the wand toy so she is coming out of her shell.

Maisie (tortie female) is the most skittish of the trio, but she hasn’t been with the rescue for as long as the others. She would rather just be seen than be touched. She does enjoy her Churu treats.

All three are pretty much loners in their foster home, but enjoy watching the other cats out & about. All three would benefit being in a home with a human friendly cat or two. They will be able to see that humans are not all that bad after all as they view them petting and cuddling the other cat(s) in the household.

All three are approximately a year old, fixed, combo tested negative for both FeLV & FIV, and up-to-date on all their shots. If you are interested in meeting them, contact Boston's Forgotten Felines on Facebook or at catadoptions@bostonsforgottenfelines.org

More about this rescue

Boston streets are flooded with homeless cats and kittens. Some were abandoned, while others are feral (offspring of those abandoned cats.) We are the Feral Cat Warriors who fight to help them survive every single day. Our aim is to ensure that feral cats have a stable and safe shelters, food and medical attention as needed and for strays/abandoned cats to be adopted.
