Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 6 mi from Wilmington

Looking for a kitten with charm, personality, and good looks? Meet Paris — a sweet, playful, and ridiculously adorable grey tabby with a white chest and cute little white paws. Paris is full of kitten energy and loves a good wrestling match with her sisters, Brooklyn, Florence, Sydney and Bunny (also available for adoption). Paris was born without a tail, similar to her mom and two of her sisters.

Read more about Paris , WG

Paris is especially fond of playing with the butterfly toy, pouncing like a pro on wand toys, and playing chase and cuddle tag with her sisters. But when playtime is over? She is more than happy to curl up on your lap and purr. Paris is friendly towards people and seeks attention with her quick purring. She gets along with other cats. Her limited interactions with dogs have been positive.

Paris is litter-trained, spayed, vaccinated and would make a great addition to any family.

Paris is playing with her foster family. Please submit a no-obligation application for a meet and greet to adopt today: https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/. (Foster: Ellen U.).

Sydney is a sweet and fun 2.5 month old kitten. She is grey with cute white mittens and a white chin. Like two of her sisters and her mom (and the Manx cats of England), Sydney was born with a very short tail. But that doesn’t slow her down one bit. Sydney is confident and loves to explore new places, people, and pets. She follows her humans around, being very inquisitive about everything going on around her and joining in to help where she can. She loves to play with her sisters, Brooklyn, Florence, Paris, and Bunny who are also looking for their forever homes. Sydney is great with other cats and dogs too.

Bunny is about 2.5 months old and very well socialized. Bunny was born with only a hint of a tail, a trait inherited from her mom who perhaps is a descendant of a Manx cat.

Read more about Bunny

Bunny is a friendly little kitty who adores being around people. Whether she's snuggling in your lap, nuzzling up for chin scratches, or quietly keeping you company, she’s always ready to share her affection and interact with her humans. Bunny is super friendly and people-loving, as well as being curious and playful without being wild. She loves to play with her sisters, Brooklyn, Florence, Paris, and Sydney who are also looking for their forever homes. She is adept at jumping high after the feather wand and climbing to the top of the cat tree. Bunny gets along wonderfully with other cats, and she would be a loving addition to any home looking for a cuddly and well-socialized kitten.

His purr can be heard across the room and loves to snuggle on your chest in blissful contentment. He loves food and will try anything once, even yours.Like any young kitten he is sometimes forgets his manners when playing and needs a home with school aged children and experienced cat owners with mature cats who will remind him to be less rambunctious and more respectful when playing. He is also very dog friendly and loves to play with any living thing, hence the need for well matched mature playmates until he grows up a little. He also plays well on his own independently if you are busy.When he is reunited with his human companions he will run up chirruping loudly and demand affection and attention which with his soft fur and appreciative purring make it a pleasure. Shire survived for a reason , maybe it’s you!

Adult (3 years 4 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Wilmington

Sylvie is a sweet young girl looking for a loving family to call her own. While she can be a little shy when first settling into a new environment, she blossoms with patience, encouragement, and consistent love. Once she feels comfortable, Sylvie wants to be right where the action is, whether that's lounging in the living room with her family or keeping you company while you work.

Read more about Sylvie

One of Sylvie's favorite things is finding a cozy perch where she can relax and watch the world around her. She enjoys pets, treats, and mealtime, and she's always happy to spend time with the people she trusts. Sylvie is also incredibly curious and inquisitive. She loves exploring new spaces, investigating new toys, and figuring out how everything works.

Sylvie gets along well with other cats, dogs, and people. In fact, we'd love to see her join a home with another friendly cat. She enjoys the company of feline friends and often looks to them for social cues as she navigates new situations. Having a kitty companion helps her feel more confident and comfortable.

A special thing about Sylvie is that she knows her name and responds to it!

If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate, and curious companion who will reward your patience with loyalty and companionship, Sylvie may be the perfect addition to your family.

23. Tota & Amba

Adult (3 years 3 months) · Male · Maine Coon (long coat) · 18 mi from Wilmington

This is a courtesty posting, we are networking Tota and Amba so they can find a great home and avoid entering a shelter.
Tota & Amba
Maine Coon mix Brothers Seeking a Home Together
Tota and Amba are bonded male longhair cats born in June 2023. They are being rehomed together due to the resident cat not liking them. This decision is unrelated to their behavior, as both cats are friendly, affectionate, and well-adjusted companions.
Having been together their entire lives, Tota and Amba share a strong bond and should remain together in their new home. They are social cats who enjoy being around people and are comfortable in both quiet and active household environments.
Personality
Tota is the more curious and playful of the pair. He enjoys exploring, interactive play, and being involved in whatever his humans are doing. He is affectionate and enjoys being held.
Amba is laid-back, affectionate, and eager for cuddles. He enjoys relaxing near his family, receiving attention, and spending quality time with his people.
Both cats are:

Read more about Tota & Amba

Friendly with people and other cats
Litterbox trained with consistent bathroom habits
Gentle and affectionate
Intelligent and highly treat-motivated
Fans of window watching, sunbathing, and interactive play

Their favorite toys include laser pointers, small fuzzy balls, and toys with tails.
Nutrition
Tota and Amba are currently fed approximately 4 oz daily of wet food, including:

Royal Canin Indoor Adult
Instinct Adult
Purina Pro Plan Chicken & Rice
Purina Pro Plan Turkey & Rice
Purina Pro Plan White Meat Chicken & Vegetables

Water is mixed into their wet food, as both cats tend to prefer moisture from their meals. They prefer still water but will also drink from a fountain.
They are free-fed Royal Canin Appetite Control dry food. Tota self-regulates his intake well, while Amba benefits from occasional monitoring around food.
Litterbox Habits
Both cats have excellent litterbox habits and are comfortable using either pellet or traditional litter.
They have successfully used:

Purina Tidy Cats
Arm & Hammer Dust Free Litter

Grooming
As longhaired cats, both benefit from routine brushing.

Tota's coat mats easily, particularly around his underarms and hind legs, and requires frequent brushing and occasional trimming for comfort.
Amba's coat is lower maintenance and typically remains tangle-free with regular brushing.

Their nails are trimmed routinely, and they enjoy having scratching posts available for normal scratching and grooming behaviors.
Lifestyle
Tota and Amba are strictly indoor cats but have experience with supervised outdoor time while wearing a leash and harness. They enjoy spending time outdoors safely, though they are equally content watching birds, people, and wildlife from a sunny window.
Neither cat displays aggressive behavior and they do not bite, scratch, or hiss except in situations where they may be frightened or distressed.
Special Note About Amba
Amba has a harmless self-soothing behavior in which he mimics kitten nursing. He seeks out a trusted person, settles into a comfortable spot nearby, and relaxes while engaging in this behavior. It is simply a comforting habit and part of his unique personality.
Ideal Home
Tota and Amba are looking for a family that can provide companionship, enrichment, and continued opportunities to stay together. They are affectionate, social cats who enjoy being part of everyday life and will make wonderful companions for the right home.
Bonded pair - must be adopted together.

27. Dolly Parton

Young (6 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 24 mi from Wilmington

Meet Dolly! This sweet girl was found living in a South Philadelphia parking lot, where a kind attendant had been feeding and caring for her. We were later told that someone had thrown her over a fence months earlier, leaving her to fend for herself. Thankfully, Dolly's days of surviving outdoors are behind her, and she's ready for a loving home of her own.

Read more about Dolly Parton

Dolly can be a little shy when meeting new people, but it only takes a few gentle pets before she's rubbing against you and asking for more attention. She is a sweet, affectionate girl with plenty of charm to share. Because she can get a bit overstimulated during playtime, she would do best with another young or playful cat who can help her burn off some energy and keep her company.

This perfect little lady is ready to trade parking lot life for a cozy couch and a family to call her own. All Dolly needs is someone willing to give her a chance to show just how wonderful she is!

Kitten (7 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 18 mi from Wilmington

Meet Jessie & Lane!
Jessie and Lane may not be sisters by birth, but somewhere along the way, these two little girls decided they were meant to be best friends. They are often found chasing each other around, tumbling through their favorite toys, or curled up together for a cozy kitten nap. Their friendship has blossomed into a special bond, and they truly enjoy having each other by their side.
Lane is the sweetest little cuddlebug you could ever meet. She absolutely loves affection and will happily be held like a baby, content to relax in your arms while soaking up all the love. She also has a playful side and loves chasing toys, playing tag with Rory, and tumbling through crinkle tubes. Give her a lap and she may happily lie upside down for belly rubs before settling in for a nap. Lane is gentle, affectionate, and wonderfully easygoing, and she gets along beautifully with cats, dogs, and children.

Both girls adore people and have done wonderfully with cats, dogs, and children. They absolutely love the resident dog at their foster home, and they are the favorites of all the kiddos!
Lane and Jessie are looking for a home where they can continue to grow, play, explore, and — most importantly — stay together. They may not have started life as sisters, but they’ve certainly become family. ❤️

Bringing a cat home to your dog

Tell the rescue about your dog: their size, age and energy. A cat who has lived with a calm dog may still be nervous around a bouncy puppy.

Introduce them slowly. Keep the cat in a room of their own for the first few days, swap bedding so they get used to each other's scent, and then let them meet with the dog on a leash.

Make sure the cat can always get somewhere the dog can't reach, and keep the litter box and food bowls out of the dog's way.
