My story

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

Meet Frankie & Joey!

We’re 4-to-5-year-old brothers looking for our new forever home after our previous owner was no longer able to take care of us due to declining health. Our foster mom says we’re a couple of chonkers who would do well with some regular exercise and a disciplined diet (that being said, our weight doesn’t stop us from jumping up and down everywhere we desire to be). We both love rolling over for belly rubs, chasing the laser back and forth, admiring our kingdom from the window sills, indulging in catnip (though that tends to bring out our sibling rivalry, so supervision recommended), and find the dishwasher the most fascinating inanimate object ever.

Frankie (Tuxedo): Between the two of us, I definitely take the lead and waste no time settling in and letting my personality shine. I love (and INSIST on) exploring every high surface and inspecting ALL the greenery so plant owners beware. Despite her best efforts, my foster mom can’t keep me off the dining table, but I’ve spared her the kitchen counter thus far.

Joey (Orange): I take a little longer than Frankie to settle in, by which I mean t-minus 4-hours. I often walk with a sense of austere urgency before dropping over at your feet to show you my big belly. While Frankie is more keen on finding the highest places to perch, I love exploring every nook and cranny, whether that means army crawling under ALL the furniture (usually with the same sense of urgency I walk with) or getting stuck in a closet because of my poor spatial relations and consistently underestimating my ~breadth~.

From the Foster: These two are an absolute delight and basically living playdough – super tolerant with zero objections to being pet, brushed, and picked-up (though they are QUITE heavy). Despite having every other characteristic, they haven’t shown themselves to be lap cats yet, preferring window sills and tables to couches and beds, but that might just come with time. They were very patient with another foster kitty that would hop all over them, but unclear how they feel about dogs. They did growl and hiss at a human baby who lived in their initial temporary spot when she got too close so as a precaution, supervision (protection) around any young children is recommended.

We are available through Kitty Connection in Medford!
