My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Rufus is Archies brother. He is more outgoing then Archie. Would be great if they could go together but could be separated. He is sweet and loves attention. He will be standoffish in new situations but will warm up. No small children. Older kids ok. He gets along with other cats and does fine with respectful dogs. Will need time and patience. But should come around fine. He gets alittle nervous being picked up. He would do best in a quieter home.


Per his foster mom: 'We would like both Archie and Rufus adopted together. Archie doesn't like to be touched. He prefers to just be. You can pet him if he is eating his wet food but he ducks under your hand to get out of the way. He is sweet and likes to be talked to once he gets to know you but as far as petted or picked up? Not so much. Rufus likes pets but doesn't dig being picked up very much. Both cats will deal with it but would prefer you didn't. Rufus also likes wet food a ton and does search out pets.'
