CASION and CASSIE were living in really bad area of Torrance, CA. The independent rescuer was asked to help get the local strays fixed and save these 2 teenagers. We were more than happy to help! These poor little guys were so malnourished, sick and scared. So once there was space at our rescue, we picked them up! Meet CASION, a young, sweet, and independent soul. His curious nature leads him to explore every nook and cranny, while his goofy side keeps everyone around him amused. Gentle and mellow, CASION also has a funny streak that will leave you chuckling. He's smart, playful, and brave, yet retains a shy side that makes him all the more endearing. His favorite thing in the world? Can food! He can't resist it. CASION's diverse personality traits make him a wonderful companion. His independence means he's content on his own, but his playful and loving side means he'll always be there when you need a friend. Adopt CASION and let his sweet, goofy charm brighten your everyday life. We would love to see CASION go home with his sister CASSIE. They are not bonded. But they have lived together all their lives.
