After being rescued from the streets, a once stray cat now eagerly greets every new kitten that enters the room, keen to share his story of transformation and newfound happiness.
Forest the cat, also known as Philly Kitty Lady’s little look-alike, found his forever home a few years back and has been lending a helping paw to kittens in need ever since. Erica, a vet tech, first met Forest while working at a cat cafe.
“He was brought to our city’s shelter as a stray with a badly injured leg. After undergoing surgery and being transferred to a smaller shelter, he ended up at the cafe in search of a new home,” Erica shared with Love Meow.
The plump and laid-back house panther instantly reminded Erica of her late cat Banjo, both in looks and demeanor. “He was like a gentle giant with three legs. I knew I had to bring him into my home.”
Forest was saved as a stray and was welcomed into Erica’s home, where he found his forever family. Upon arriving, Forest quickly bonded with the other cats in the household, bringing a soothing presence with his relaxed demeanor.
“Forest is quite the laid-back feline. He enjoys his meals and lounging in a comfy cat bed.”
Forest stumbled upon his passion for caring for foster kittens and has been dedicated to helping them ever since. One day, he heard the soft meows coming from the kitten room and eagerly waited outside the door, trying to communicate with the tiny creatures. Erica, who has provided a home for around 200 kittens throughout the years, was touched by Forest’s dedication and found him guarding the door, eager to meet the new fosters.
All of the foster kittens can’t resist heading over to Forest at @phillykittylady_fosters. Once the kittens got the go-ahead for a friendly introduction, Forest confidently strolled in. It wasn’t long before he was completely surrounded by a group of fluffy kittens, all clamoring for his affection. “As soon as I introduced a new kitten to the group, they all flocked to Forest without hesitation,” remarked the foster parent.
The kittens are always seen tagging along with him. No matter how timid they may be, they can’t help but be drawn to his affection. Forest is known for having an infinite amount of patience and the kittens simply can’t resist his magnetic personality. He seems to possess an innate understanding of what the kittens require and he lets them snuggle up to him whenever they feel like it. They always seem to feel at ease and content in his presence.
Forest took care of Mark and Travis at Philly Kitty Lady Fosters. He wasn’t usually the one to initiate interaction with the kittens; instead, he would just lie there, letting them come to him. Even when they climbed on him or tried to nurse, he was always patient and calm.
One particular kitten, Ashley, a beautiful long-haired tabby, was especially fond of Forest. She loved having him as a constant companion for snuggles. Whenever she got tired from playing, she would find Forest and curl up next to him for a peaceful nap.
Forest from @phillykittylady_fosters is a caring and compassionate foster parent to the kittens in his care. He is always there to provide cuddles and ensure they feel safe and loved. Forest goes above and beyond to keep them warm and comforted.

Forest may be chill most of the time, but if there’s food around, he’s quick to speak up with a meow. And whenever there are new kittens in the house, you can count on Forest to make his voice heard.
