Story
Meet handsome Sampson!  This sweet boy is approximately 6 months old.  He was found alone on a farm. The new owners started feeding him but could not take him in due to allergies.  They noticed he was limping and reached out for help. Luckily, he was rescued by a nice woman who got him the medical attention he needed. He's been fostered by her since the end of November. Sampson had an old,  injury to the left front paw. It is healed now and works fine, but best not to play too hard on it.This sweet boy is longing for a soft lap to purr and cuddle up on.  He will be great company  for his adopter.  He does well with other cats.  He will do best with low energy cats.   Sampson had not met young children or dogs.  She should do fine with both but a quiet home would be best so that he can take it easy on his leg.  He does still limp because the leg bows out.He is easy going and appreciates being loved and petted. Sampson will be arriving in our Christiana PetSmart adoption center Friday, 1/10/25.   Why not stop in for a visit!Please submit our no-obligation Adoption Application for a meet and greet or to adopt:  https://forgottencats.org/adoption-application/.  Thank you!  (Foster:  Diane D.)January 9, 2025, 3:38 pm
