From Foster to Forever Stories

Figgy & Panda!
We just got the sweetest pictures from Figgy and Panda’s new mom — and as you can see, these two are living their very best lives!
Both are settling in beautifully and already showing off their purr-sonalities — Figgy’s all about cozy naps and soft blankets, while Panda’s making sure every toy gets the attention it deserves.
We’re so happy for these two adorable kitties and their wonderful family.

Cork (Formerly Sprint)
We just had to share this adorable update from Cork’s mom — because how could we not? Look at that face!
“Cork (formerly Sprint) is now almost 8 months old! He’s the most mischievous, silly, unusual kitten we’ve ever had. He grew so fast and makes us laugh every single day! He loves to play fetch and sleep under Mom’s chin. Our home is complete with the addition of Cork!”
We couldn’t be happier knowing this once-little speedster has found his perfect forever home — full of laughter, love, and plenty of mischief.

Sonny, Luna & Alvin
We love hearing from our adopters — and this update from one of our amazing families made our whole week!
Their mom shared that she adopted three cats from us — Sonny, Luna (formerly Jamie Lee Curtis), and Alvin — all from different litters, but now totally inseparable!
Sonny takes his job as household security very seriously — nothing gets past those big, watchful eyes.
Alvin is the goofy one of the group — not a fan of modeling his holiday outfit , but a big baby who loves sprawling out in the weirdest (and cutest) sleeping positions.
Luna reigns as queen of the house and makes sure everyone knows it — especially when she hears the word “no.”

Earl Gray & Maggie
Some updates just melt our hearts — and this one did exactly that.
Earl Gray, who came to us as a beautiful little kitten, has grown into a handsome young gentleman and the sweetest teenager. His family says he has completely completed their household — bringing warmth, laughter, and love wherever he goes.
And then there’s Ivy Margaret, affectionately known as Maggie, who keeps everyone smiling with her gentle spirit and her talent for stealing hearts daily. She’s full of personality and charm — the perfect reminder that rescued really is the best breed.
We’re so grateful to their wonderful family for giving them both such a loving forever home. From tiny paws to big personalities, this is what “From Foster to Forever” is all about.

Castiel
What a way to spend a rainy Sunday! We LOVE all of the updates we got in today! Remember Cassadine? This handsome tabby is now living his best life as Castiel, and his family couldn’t be happier!
Castiel spends most of his time cuddling his people and just a little time getting into mischief — because what’s life without a bit of adventure? His parents are building a new home and can’t wait to see his reaction when he explores his new space next year.
And we absolutely love that Castiel even got to “attend” his humans’ wedding this past August — because every family photo is better when it includes the cat!
From all of us at the Oswego County SPCA — congratulations to Castiel’s parents on their marriage! We’re so happy for your beautiful family (and so grateful you made sure your furry boy was part of the celebration).

Murphy, Jack, & Rambo
From three different beginnings to one beautiful forever — meet Murphy, Jack, and Rambo, three little gentlemen who prove that family isn’t always the one you’re born into, but the one you find.
Jack (the orange snuggler) is the resident cuddlebug — happiest when wrapped up in a blanket and tucked under his mom’s arm.
Murphy (white and orange) is the charmer, always ready to pose for the camera and soak up attention like the star he is.
Rambo (tabby) is the gentle observer, often found lounging in sunny spots and keeping a watchful eye on his brothers’ antics.
Though they came from separate litters, they’ve settled into life together like they were always meant to be — sharing naps, toys, and plenty of love.
We couldn’t be happier seeing how perfectly they’ve completed their family. Thank you to their amazing humans for opening your home (and hearts!) to not one, not two, but three of our rescues. From Foster to Forever — times three!

Sally (Formerly Roxy)
Every once in a while, a cat comes along who just fits perfectly — like they were meant to be there all along. That’s exactly the case for Sally, formerly known as Roxy, who was adopted back in 2022 and has been living her happily-ever-after ever since. 🐾
Sally’s family tells us they “absolutely love her soooooo much,” and judging by that confident pose and soft little smile, it’s safe to say she feels the same way. This beautiful girl has settled into her role as household royalty — part snugglebug, part explorer, and full-time heart-stealer.
It’s hard to believe how far she’s come — from foster to forever, from waiting for a home to being the very center of one. ❤️
We couldn’t be happier for Sally and her wonderful family — thank you for giving her the loving home and life she always deserved.
From Foster to Forever — and loving every moment of it.

Linc (Formerly Hawk) & Penny (Formerly Hildie)
Remember Hawk — that teeny, tiny, itty-bitty kitten who stole hearts the moment he arrived? Well, gone are those days! This handsome boy, now known as Linc, has grown into one majestic young gentleman — and he’s not flying solo.
Linc shares his forever home with his beautiful sister Penny (formerly Hildie), and together, the two have become quite the duo. Whether they’re lounging in cozy spots, supervising their humans’ every move, or just looking this stunning, they’re clearly living their very best lives.
We love seeing how our little fosters blossom in their forever homes — and this pair is proof that love, care, and a second chance can turn tiny kittens into confident, happy cats. Thank you to their amazing family for giving both Linc and Penny the loving home they deserve! From Foster to Forever — and thriving every step of the way.

Toast (Formerly Snowflake) & Mango (Formerly Wasabi)
Meet Toast and Mango — two of our 2025 graduates who have officially gone From Foster to Forever!
Toast (left, formerly known as Snowflake) joined his forever family in January, and Mango (right, formerly known as Wasabi) came home in July — and from the looks of it, these two handsome boys were meant to be brothers.
Now they’re inseparable best buds, sharing window seats, playtime, and plenty of mischief. With all the zoomies and kitten energy between them, life in their home is full of laughter, love, and the kind of chaos only cats can create.
We love seeing updates like this — two rescues from different times, now living their happily-ever-after together.
Thank you to their family for giving both of these sweet boys the forever home they deserve!
From Foster to Forever — and loving every playful moment.

Truman Capote
It’s almost hard to believe, but this coming March will mark two years since Truman Capote was adopted!
Truman was one of the “graveyard kittens” found in a tote — and now he’s living the good life. His dad shared that Truman has become the light of the home, saying, “He’s my pride and joy, and I can’t imagine life without him.”
From the looks of it, Truman’s days are full of fun and curiosity — playing with whatever catches his eye, exploring every nook and cranny, and generally being an adorable little goofball.
We couldn’t be happier for this handsome guy and the wonderful family who gave him the life he deserves. And big thank yous to our friends at the Positivity Cat Cafe for helping to make this a reality! From Foster to Forever — and clearly thriving every step of the way.

Jelly Bean (Formerly Apricot)
It looks like Jellybean is living her best life!
This gorgeous orange girl — formerly known as Apricot — was one of our sweet fosters, and judging by the photos her family shared, she’s made herself right at home. Whether she’s snuggling with her favorite humans, exploring the house, or catching up on some very important nap time, Jellybean is clearly soaking up all the love a forever home has to offer.
Seeing our animals thriving in their new homes is what it’s all about. From foster to forever — Jellybean has found her happy ending, and we couldn’t be happier for her and her family!

Linda & Peggy (Formerly Whiskey & Snocone)Talk about living the good life! These two beautiful girls — now known as Linda and Peggy — have settled into their forever home and couldn’t be happier. From the looks of it, their days are filled with snuggles, naps, and plenty of love from their favorite humans.
Originally known as Whiskey and Snowcone, these two have clearly found exactly where they were meant to be — curled up in the arms of people who adore them. Seeing them so content and cherished absolutely fills our hearts.
