Abigail was rescued from the street while she was pregnant with NINE kittens. Sadly, she lost the kittens, but remains one of the sweetest souls who is enjoying her new life indoors.

She doesn’t mind dogs but may do better in a home as a single cat. Abby is negative for FIV and feline leukemia, spayed, flea and worm treated, and vaccinated for rabies and FVRCP. She is ready to spread some love in her forever home! If you were interested in adopting Abby, please fill out an application at Castawaycatsde.com.

Crystal and a bunch of other cats were living in an alleyway in a not so good part of town. They were multiplying out of control and being threatened by some non cat loving people. We were asked to help, and when we went out there were a lot more than we thought but we did the best we could to try to get as many as we could. Surprisingly enough they were all pretty friendly and very sweet. They now all are spayed or neutered, vaccinated for fvrcp and rabies, flea and worm treated and tested negative for leukemia and AIDS. Now they are looking for new permanent, inside homes. If you are interested in Crystal or any of our other castaway cats please fill out our application at castawaycatsde.com

Jewel was born December 27th 2023. Her mother was a calico but I do not know who her mother mated with to produce Jewel and her brother Julian. Julian is gray and white. Jewel is the spitting of her mother. I kept the kittens to train them to be my emotional support animals, unfortunately Jewel is more timid and nervous more so than her brother. She knows her name and she will respond to her name. She is vocal,not too much but she will respond when you speak to her. she is very loving and loves attention and to sleep with you. She can be a little Moody about being held but she does like affection. She can tolerate going outside in small enclosed yards she cannot handle large outside areas. Her favorite treat are freeze dried chicken hearts and chicken giblets from chewy.com. Jewel has been with me everyday of her life and I have been living in a tight space and she is mainly an indoor cat. Please treat her like she is your baby she deserves all the love and attention that she can get.

Artemis is 5 years old and was found by a friend abandoned as a kitten in Corpus Christi Texas at 2 months old. I decided on a whim to adopt her and have had her ever since. Artemis is a very sweet cat that mostly keeps to herself, doesn't like being held, but loves affection through pets and playing. She is rather skittish around new people and in new environments but will warm up to anyone given enough time so she can introduce herself on her terms. Recently my partner and I adopted a dog and unfortunately after a lot of effort it is clear that these two just will not get along and can not cohabitate. It's clear that she is just no longer happy with the situation at home and needs a better place where she can be carefree and stress free. That combined with my partners allergies to cat made the decision to rehome Artemis be the best situation for everyone.

Head and chin rubs, please!!!  Meet Coral, my beautiful tabico foster.  Coral came to me after having her left leg amputated, to gain her confidence living without a leg. Coral has come such a long way. Having her leg amputated has not slowed her down at all. She jumps, runs, plays without issue. Coral loves: food and treats, soft toys she can easily grab and cat nip. To see her growth and love grow over the last 3 months has been amazing. She went from a cat that did not really interact with me to jumping and running to me when I walk in her room. She lights up and meows at me until I pet her. Coral loves being having her head and chin rubbed as she sits there purring away.  To her future adopter: Please be patient with Coral as she adjusts to her new surroundings. She was very reserved at first, but within a month, she was playing, laying on the couch with me and loving life. Coral also loves her own space and laying in windows. She may enjoy being an only cat; however, Coral has been introduced to resident cats. She is unsure at times but only hisses, but with time and patience, I believe she would adjust perfectly fine with another laid back cat that gives her space. She does okay with my one resident cat that comes into her area. That’s because he just wants to be in the space and doesn’t bother her. She is a girl who just loves her humans and cuddling.  Coral is playing with her foster family.  Please ask to meet her and have some playtime!  Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Joanna S.)  November 7, 2024, 5:25 pm

ABOUT HAZEL Meet Hazel, our funny little gremlin! This kooky lady came to us after her owners were unable to manage her medical issues. Hazel had a bit of a rough start here, she was NOT pleased being confined, but she settled in quickly and let her personality shine! Hazel is a true character! She is the Queen Bee and the biggest diva of them all! She likes what she likes, and she'll let you know what displeases her. She loves to play and loves to snuggle, she's a true lap cat! She allows you to dress her up, though she will only allow that in small doses. She enjoys going for walks in her stroller, as well. Hazel has been in a foster home before, here's what her foster has to say about her: "She is still as sweet as can be!! I sleep in her room 1-2 nights a week so that she can enjoy nighttime cuddles. She has seen my cats and the majority of the time she doesn't mind them. A few times she has hissed at them/back at them. Over the holiday, she was able to meet my nieces and nephew and did really well! She just loves attention!! Her newest thing is asking for belly rubs!" **Hazel has skin allergies, which are currently managed by a special diet and medication. If not managed, this allergy causes her to break out into a super itchy rash. She MUST stay on her special diet and medication unless otherwise directed by your vet. *Hazel has recently decided that she would be comfortable sharing a home with other kitties, though she does need a slow introduction and a home with calmer cats! We aren't sure how she'd do with a dog, but we assume she would bully them. Once in a home, she does super well with children and new people, though she can be a little grumpy during transitions.

ABOUT OPAL! Meet Opal, our beautiful three-year-old lady! This pretty girl came to us after her owner's were unable to care for her. While this can be a big change, she's adjusted quite well! Opal is a big lover girl! She loves to hang out with her human friends and snuggle up next to them. While she is much more of a lover than a player, she has been know to bat around a jingle ball or chase a string toy! *Opal isn't the biggest fan of other cats, and we aren't sure how she'd do with dogs. We do think she'd do fine with children, though! **If you are interested in adopting this cat, please submit an adoption questionnaire!

ABOUT SMOKEY AND BANDIT! Meet Smokey and Bandit, our two-year-old sisters! These girls came to HAP from a hoarding case, so this has been a big change for them. They have started to settle in, though! Smokey is the more outgoing of the two, though she can be shy at first. She enjoys playing, so she can usually be won over by some playtime! Bandit tends to be more of the observer, she likes to hang back on the sidelines while her sister takes the lead. After some time, they are both super sweet girls who love to hang out with their people friends! *Smokey and Bandit both do well with other cats, but we recommend they go to a home with no dogs and no children. **If you are interested in adopting this cat, please submit an adoption questionnaire!
