My story

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

Although we named them Romeo and Juliette, they may, in fact, be brother and sister. Except for a few flecks of white on Romeo, they look exactly alike. But that’s where the similarities end. Where Juliette is a cautious overthinker, Romeo doesn’t think about anything at all. Juliette is polite and timid. Romeo is brash and brave. While Juliette observes life quietly from a distance, Romeo is at the geographic center of everything.

Here are their rescue stories:

On July 18, 2024, a resident in our community posted that he spotted a kitten in his yard, but he couldn’t get near it. My husband drove by to take a look, and sure enough, he found a kitten lying in the dirt. She was overheated, severely dehydrated, and malnourished, but after a few days, to our great joy, she fully recovered. We named her Juliette because we caught her in July.

Romeo came to us from a neighboring community a few days later. He was hungry, but otherwise in good condition. These silky little house panthers are so similar in size, color, and age, we suspect they are siblings. And they immediately began playing and napping together like they recognized each other. My husband describes them as “two shadows chasing each other through the house.” They are a sweet, hilarious duo.

When they came to our rescue, they looked to be about nine weeks old, so we’ll call their birthday May 19, 2024. They are certainly an adorable pairing, and since they began their rescue journey together, our strong preference is that they be adopted together. Both kittens are completely litter trained and FIV/FeLV negative.

The adoption fee for the two of them is $150. The fee covers FIV/FeLV testing, deworming, vaccinations, and spay/neuter with a partner clinic.
