My story

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

Gelato & Froyo (Bonded Pair)
*Gelato*
Short Hair Brown Tabby Spayed Female
Birthdate: 2/18/2024
*Froyo*
Short Hair Buff Neutered Male
Birthdate: 2/18/2024

Gelato and Froyo are ready for their forever home together!

Gelato is an outgoing, confident gal who has no sense of personal space. She will greet you by pushing her little muzzle right into your face. She is energetic and curious, and will zoom around your house. On the flipside, she wants to be near you and keep you company. Then there's her brother, Froyo. We like to call him "Fro-bro", as he is the big buff dude who just likes to hang out with his humans. He will follow you around the house and be your best friend for treats! They are quite the pair together and enjoy wrestling, grooming, and sleeping together.

The ideal home for these two would be a family with space for lots of love and personality from this bonded pair. Gelato and Froyo would do well in a home with cat savvy kids 10+, or a family without kids would be fine too! Careful introductions to other cats in the home are necessary, and they have not been exposed to dogs.

Gelato has had quite the journey since she was a little kitten. She was diagnosed with Pectus Excavatum at 6 weeks old. This is a condition which causes the sternum to grow into the chest, causing limited lung capacity and a possibility for injury to her internal organs. She was lucky enough to be supported by Tigerlily Cat Rescue, who got her the life saving surgery she needed and her prognosis is now great!! After she passed her surgery with flying colors, she started itching her face causing sores and scrapes. Tigerlily again stepped in to go through multiple treatments and tests to solve her itchiness. Her face is now healed up, and her allergies are well managed!

Thank you for reading all about this special duo!

Both cats are fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, tested negative for FIV and FeLV, and treated for parasites. Their adoption fee as a pair is $200. Do you have room in your heart and home for this dynamic deserving duo?

Additional adoption info

* We do require adopters to be at least 21 years old.
* If you are leasing, we do ask that you provide a copy of your rental agreement showing that cats are allowed.
* We also ask that all adults living in the home agree with the adoption and addition of a feline friend to the family.
* For families with young children (under 6), kittens over 6 months are best.
* If the pet is to be alone for a significant amount of time, we ask that you consider adopting an older kitten or adult, or consider adopting two kittens to keep each other company. Young kittens are susceptible to social-depression if alone for a significant amount of time.
* We also discourage "gift" adoptions unless it is from a parent to a minor child.

Our adoption fee of $100 (cash/check) includes feline leukemia/FIV testing, deworming, flea preventative, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines. All Tigerlily cats are thoroughly examined by a veterinarian. All cats and kittens are spayed/neutered prior to being available for adoption.
