Priscilla Forehand
Okie Cats Creator
A “cat mom” for more than twenty-three years, Priscilla Forehand dedicates her personal time to feline-inspired projects that range from photographing cats across the state of Oklahoma to raise both awareness and funds for nonprofits, and volunteers at various cat related events and rescue groups. Over the years, Priscilla has traveled to both coasts to attend cat conferences. She lives in Bridge Creek, OK with her husband and their multiple cats and dogs, and they have spent more than two decades "catifying" their home. Over the years, she has amassed an impressive collection of cat art that includes commissioned portraits of her own cats, and she often finds herself advising others on cat behavior based on her own years of experience living with many cats of all ages and backgrounds. Her work with the Kirkpatrick Foundation began with a pop-up cat cafe during the 2018 and 2021 Animal Conferences, and an Oklahoma City metro wide billboard campaign to encourage locals to “Adopt” cats.
