Hickory - Tuxedo and Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Republic, Washington

Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application at http://forgetmenotshelter.org/application

Please do not call the shelter; do the application first.

Introducing the Woods litter, four sweet kitties, born 4/8/2026, who were surrendered by someone with too many cats.

These cuties are still young enough to adapt quickly to pretty much any sort of home and family, with or without other pets and small children.

This shorthaired litter includes:

ASPEN - female grey/white

FOREST - male grey/white

HICKORY - male black/white

WILLOW - female grey/white


We'd love to see all kittens go to homes that have another young, playful kitten, or to send 2 of them out as a pair (which gives you a great pair discount rate), but we do not require pair adoptions. If you prefer to adopt just one, and you don't have a similarly aged kitten at home already, please read our information on Single Kitten Syndrome. Then, when you apply for a single kitten, please let us know in the "Comments" field how you plan to deal with the "kitten crazies."

All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee is a suggested minimum of $70 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts.

Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!
