9. Ringo Willow Grove Area
Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Tuxedo / Mixed (short coat) · 4 mi from Glenside




Ringo is an adorable black-and-white tuxedo kitten with an approximate date of birth of June 29. She gets her name from the cute little white ring around one of her back legs!
Ringo was trapped with her feral mama, who wanted nothing to do with her. Luckily, Ringo was taken in and bottle-fed, so she is very comfortable around people and has grown into an extremely sweet, loving little girl.
This girl is full of personality and loves to run around and have a good time! She enjoys playing with plastic springs and carrying her catnip toys around like little treasures. If you're sitting down, don't be surprised if Ringo climbs right onto you—and then decides your head is something fun to bite! She also has a talent for sleeping in the craziest positions imaginable, and she may even snuggle up with you in bed at night.
Ringo later met Screech and Cannoli, two boys who are also looking for their forever homes, and she quickly became one of the gang! Even though the boys are twice her size and sometimes play a little rough, Ringo can definitely hold her own.

She also has foster sisters closer to her size and absolutely loves playing with them, too.
With her sweet nature, playful spirit, and silly little antics, Ringo is sure to bring lots of love, laughter, and entertainment to her forever home.
Ringo is playing with her foster family. Please submit a no-obligation application for a meet and greet or to adopt today: https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/. Thank you! (Foster: Rachael S.).

10. Lilac, Willow Grove PA 01/27/2026
Adult · Female · Siamese / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 4 mi from Glenside


Lilac – Asthmatic - Traditional Siamese Mix
Lilac is affectionate and stunningly beautiful with thick, soft fur and blue eyes. She loves being brushed and petted. We have no idea how she became homeless, but she was living outside in a feral cat colony in Norristown PA. At the shelter, her breathing appeared labored. A veterinary exam with x-rays diagnosed asthma. She’s been closely observed in her foster home. Once she settled in, she no longer requires asthma medication. We haven’t determined what exacerbates her asthma. She tolerates, but doesn’t interact with, other cats. Unknown how she’d be with a dog. She needs a stable home life. Her adopter should be prepared to treat for asthma as needed.

Meet Chai Latte!
As beautiful and comforting as her name, Chai Latte is a gorgeous 2-year-old girl with stunning swirls of warm, rich Autumn colors. She is a biscuit maker and such a love bug
But behind that beautiful face is a heartbreaking story. At just 2 years old, neighbors believe Chai Latte had already given birth to approximately SIX litters of kittens while struggling to survive on the streets. Six litters, and she was barely more than a kitten herself.
Thankfully, a compassionate Forgotten Cats volunteer crossed her path and changed her life forever. ❤️
Chai Latte has spent far too much of her young life being a mama and trying to survive.

Lunessa -
Meet sweet gentle Lunessa, found living outside emaciated. Beautiful, gentle, white & black cow pattern. Estimated to be approx 10 years old. Initially she was very shy, stayed at the back of the cage. We can only guess about her past, but no doubt she had home at one time. She has really come out of her shell. She loves pets and affection and will indicate that she wants attention and pets by gently coming up to you and extending her head towards you. She is such a sweet girl and will definitely be a wonderful, affectionate friend to someone.
Given her age and quiet nature I think she would do best in a quiet home, either as an only cat or with another gentle cat.

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 4 mi from Glenside



Meet Van Gogh (FeLV+) - Your Handsome Little House Panther!
This sleek, shiny black bundle of cuteness is a total purr bug! At 1–2 years old, Van Gogh is a loving, laid-back boy who adores snuggling close to his foster mom. His gentle nature brings a sense of calm wherever he goes, but don't let that relaxed personality fool you — he has a playful side, too!
One of Van Gogh's very favorite things is playtime with his fellow FeLV+ friends, Matisse and Picasso. These 3 boys enjoy each other's company and would all love a home where they can feel safe, loved, and cherished.
Read more about Van Gogh
Van Gogh has tested positive for feline leukemia virus (FeLV). FeLV is a virus that affects a cat's immune system and can make them more susceptible to certain illnesses. Although there is currently no cure, many FeLV+ cats can enjoy a good quality of life with proper care, regular veterinary visits, and lots of love.
FeLV is spread primarily through close contact between cats, therefore Van Gogh should live with other FeLV+ cats or as the only cat in the home. He has not been around dogs to our knowledge, but he may do well with a cat-friendly pup if introductions are slow and appropriate.
This sweet boy deserves a loving home where he can snuggle, play, and enjoy life to the fullest. Please don't let his FeLV+ status overshadow the wonderful companion he can be!
Van Gogh and his FeLV+ friends, Matisse and Picasso, are playing with their foster family. Please ask about them!

How to adopt from Four the Paws Inc.
We have a brief application an interested adopter needs to complete, we ask for a veterinary & personal reference. The adoption fee is $100 or $115 if the animal is microchipped, all animals are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, free of fleas, dewormed, and tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV. Once an application is approved the adopter fills out our adoption agreement and pays the adoption fee at the time of adoption (cash or check).

Adopting a cat in Glenside
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
