Here is a picture of our cat Corey who I adopted from Ann at Forgotten Felines in May 2010.  Corey was somewhat shy when I brought him home and hid behind our couch and under our beds and it took a while for him to relax and get use to our home, but after a few months he seemed like he had been with us forever.  He is very a curious and fun loving cat  – he loves to look through all the packages and everything that you bring home and is just interested in everything.  He has adjusted to our home very nicely and is just a loveable cat.

PAULIE - A VERY LUCKY FIV+ KITTY 

 Hi Ann.. I lost one of my two cats to cancer last January after 18 wonderful years.  To me, the best way to honor a beloved pet’s memory is to provide another cat the same opportunity to experience the joy of a good home. So, in August, I contacted Forgotten Felines to inquire about getting another cat. It had to have FIV like my other kitty. Ann steered me toward Paulie, who at the time was living at the Peekskill Animal Hospital. Paulie was a stray who was being fed outside by some kind people; however, after he contracted a severe eye infection, they took him to the Animal Hospital.  Paulie, named after the vet who fixed him, quickly won over the staff with his warmth and friendliness. Sadly, he lost his eye but it doesn’t stop him and gives him somewhat of a rakish look!  My other female cat loves him and they both get plenty of exercise racing around the house. Everyone who meets him is charmed by his sweet disposition. I still miss my cat but it’s gratifying to see Paulie delighting in the same things my other cat used to do and it’s endless fun to learn about a cat’s unique personality. I urge anyone who has lost a pet to mourn them and then open their heart to a new love.The rewards are worth it. Diane

Remember, FIV+ kitties can and do live long lives with just regular care and good diet. 

Dear Joann and All at Forgotten Felines,

You can't imagine the joy that Oscar brings me each and every day. There is no better companion.  He is my dog cat and always with me.  He loves company.  Anyone who visits loves him and he loves the whole world.  I am so lucky, Kerry

SOME SPECIAL COMMENTS:

Best wishes to you from Dede Brown & Theresa:

    If there were a better cat than Theresa, it would be astounding. She is more responsive and smarter than a dog.  She is organized, reasonable, sensitive, peaceful, clean & self-contained.  Wow!

 Happened to see an advertisement for Forgotten Felines and went on your website and wanted to share with you a happy ending.  We adopted Harley almost 20 years ago from Forgotten Felines, a foster home in Yorktown, where he was a 6-week-old kitten who was found along with his very sick brother abandoned in a parking lot.  Almost 20 years later, he's lived a wonderful life and is now enjoying his retirement in Poughquag in his new house with mountain views and lots of sunny spots to nap.  I've attached a picture of him.  It's hard to believe he's almost 20 years old.

 Hi Jo Ellen, just wanted to let you know that Brittany is doing GREAT!  She is adjusting just fine and is spending lots of time with our girls.  The girls have been spending alot of time in the basement with her and she is now hanging out on their lap on the couch....she is soooo sweet....she purrs everytime we go near her!  We are taking the transition with the dog very slowly....we let them smell each other for a few minutes a day while I hold her but she is scared and our dog shakes (I think he is scared too!).  So that we will continue to take slowly.  Just wanted to let you know how great she is and how happy we are to provide her a home....she is the best!  I will send you a picture on email soon.  Thanks again for everything yesterday....you were right, she is special.  We did change her name to "Jackie" as in the baseball player (Jackie Robinson)....seemed like a good fit with our dog's name "Mickey Mantle".  Take care!

 

Hi Renee,
Flip's first night went great!  He meowed a little bit on the way home
but he didn't get sick or anything.  Once we got home he came right
out of the carrier and proceeded to check out the house from top to
bottom.  Aidan got some kitty toys out for him and they played a
little. He's eating fine and is using the litter box. He made himself
comfortable under the tree (I've attached a picture).  Overnight he was quiet and right now he's sleeping in a sunshine patch in the
dining room.  He seems to be settling in pretty well. He is a love.
Thanks again!  Brenda

Dear Joann and friends,

We adopted "princess" yesterday, she has adapted so far to being in a house with 3 other cats and is quite a handful but very happy. Thank you again she is wonderful!

JoEllen, Charlie is doing fine.  Our other cat is slowly getting used to him.  Charlie is happy and just as sweet as can be.  Here's a pic I snapped, I haven't had time to get some fun ones.  Thanks again.

During this hoiday season, my husband and I area so grateful we adopted our precious P.D. "DixieDoll" from Forgotten Felines Sept 2007.  She is a joy in every way and we love her like a daughter

Sincerely, Lori
