Meet Doublemint, a stunning white and grey tabby with beautiful stripes that perfectly complement her sweet personality. This lovely girl is incredibly affectionate and eager to find her forever home. Unfortunately, she came from a rough environment, and despite being with her last owner for several months, she was returned through no fault of her own. Since being adopted previously, she went to a home with her brother Dragonfly and would prefer to keep them together as they are bonded! Doublemint deserves a second chance at a happy life filled with love and comfort. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to brighten your days, she might be the perfect fit!***Adoptions are by appointment only.

Story
Hello! My name is Kita! I am an energetic, playful, affectionate little one eagerly searching for my forever home. I adore meeting new people, although I may need some time to warm up. Don't be fooled by my initial shyness because I absolutely love cuddling. I enjoy receiving snuggles and gentle scratches and indulging in treats while observing people. I find great joy in basking in the sun and having some alone time, but I also cherish spending time with people!***Adoptions are by appointment only.
