Forgotten Felines of Culpeper

I have been rescuing for another group for 8 years, that group is in the process of dissolving. I am forming this group because there is a desperate need for it in this area. I believe that every cat deserves to have shelter from the elements, food, and humane care. I am hoping to lower the shelter's euthanasia rates, and help the community by taking in sick, orphaned, and abandoned cats through a network of foster homes, once expansion is necessary.

Meet Slate

Meet Dakota and Slate!  These girls came to us from a local shelter when their family" moved and left them behind to fend for themselves. Suddenly after being fed kibble in a bowl, they now had to eat from trash cans or learn to hunt; after being inside a warm home, they now had to stay warm, find shelter, and learn about the not-so-friendly life on the streets. After some time, they were found by a Good Samaritan and taken to a shelter. There they stayed - each in their own cage - since December 2023 - 11 months -  and they were not able to comfort each other because they were in separate cages (every shelter's policy). Sadly, because they had been in the shelter for so long and the shelter was now at capacity, they were in the top 3 to be euthanized, so Forgotten Felines quickly took them into care.(The cat at the top of the list was also pulled and is now in her forever home!)Once in their foster home, they were excited to see each other again after being separated for so  long. They immediately snuggled together and groomed each other and have been inseparable since..These girls are bonded and must be adopted together. (We have a special - adopt 1, get 1 free!)Dakota is a beautiful, long haired white and gray beauty, just 3 years old. She is friendly an enjoys being pet and loved on. She adapts fairly quickly to people and enjoys taking naps in front of a sunny window. Slate is a beautiful Russian Blue, also 3 years old. Slate also warms up fairly quickly and enjoys being pet, sunny windows, and naps. They were found together and are bonded, after being through so much together.In their letter to Santa they wrote that they are happy for the gift of being together again and they are dreaming of being part of a loving family. Their perfect family would be a quiet, low activity home with a human or humans with with or without cat-friendly kids over the age of 10 years old.Both girls are ready to go home with an approved application. They are dewormed, spayed, are up to date on their FVRCP and Rabies vaccines, combo tested negative, and are microchipped with a lifetime registration. Please consider meeting them and giving them  home. They have been through so much in their young lives already. Contact us at [email protected] or call 540.717.4420
